I've added two triggers to my eLearning so that the Next button is disabled until the audio is complete on each slide (per this thread - Disable Nav Buttons). I've also set the Player Menu to "Restricted" so the user cannot move ahead via the menu options but so that they can still go back if they need.
However, if a user decides to click a previous (already viewed) menu option or click Previous (e.g. going from Slide 7 back to Slide 3), they are forced to view all subsequent slides and audio (e.g. Slides 4 - 7) a second time.
Is there a way to manipulate the "Disable Nav Buttons Until Media Completes" triggers so they don't have to listen to the audio the SECOND time around? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I think a conditional logic (IF) restriction on your trigger connected to a variable (e.g. LastSlideNumber) could be used for both the navigation buttons and audio.
For the audio, set a Pause Media trigger higher in the trigger order, then a second Play Audio with an "if" condition lower in the trigger order.
Thanks for your quick reply Brian. I'm not sure I follow the guidance. Are you aware of existing articles that detail the steps of what you are suggesting?
