Variables not listed

Hi Sadie!  I'm trying to build out this set up, but I might not be understanding exactly how you're doing it.  Could you possibly share your .story file by using the Add Attachment button in your reply?  I'd like to see if I can replicate your issue.

You can also share your file here privately if you wish!

Hi Crystal!  Thank you for agreeing to look at my files!  I uploaded them via the private link for you.

Ok, I'll take a look and let you know what I can find!

Hi Sadie.  I was able to reproduce your issue with your file.  I saw the variable choices working within the trigger wizard on your first course, and the lack of variable choices in the second course.

We have found that referencing numeric variables (like 1S on the sales course) inside a text entry trigger produces inconsistent results.  I understand that you need the numeric variable so that the value/score can grow.

• Your first course (personality) has a numeric variable (1D) that gets adjusted according to quiz answers.
• You then used the 1D variable to adjust a text variable (1DScore) to a value of "D1" depending on the score in 1D (i.e. if 1D is between 1 and 15), "D1" being a text value.  
• Finally, in the text entry slide, you referenced the 1DScore variable (textual value "D1") in the text entry field trigger.  And using a text variable (1DScore) as opposed to a numeric variable (1D) is why that variable showed up in the drop-down of the trigger wizard.

The moral of the story?  You have to use a text variable in a text entry trigger.  So in the new course, you may have to design something like a 1SScore text variable to translate that 1S value into your text entry trigger.

I would invite the community for further input since this is a highly customized (and really thought-out) set up!

Thank you Crystal!  This was very helpful and I finally just got it all worked out with all 5 sections reporting correctly and it is working properly.  Your help was very appreciated! :)
