Why Can't I upload a Powerpoint to Screenr

Dec 10, 2015

This is part of my assignment, to create a powerpoint storyline and then publish it on screenr and post the url in my classroom. I had no problem finding a template to use but, the major problem is finding where I publish so that I can provide a url!!!!!!

Am I supposed to publish to youtube or something? Why isn't there an option on this site?

Hi Sarah!

Here are some other options that may be helpful:

If you don't need to track course completion for your learners, then web publishing is a good option. To learn how to publish Presenter content for web distribution, click here.

After publishing, do any of the following:

  • Use the FTP button on the Publish Successful dialog to upload the published files to a web server.
  • Use your own FTP client to upload the published files to a web server.
  • Give the published files to your server administrator to upload to a web server.

When your published files have been uploaded to a web server, provide learners with the URL for the presentation.html file. If you don't have access to a web server, here are a few free options to consider:

  • Tempshare: This is a free service provided by Articulate for testing content. It's only a temporary solution for hosting content. Uploaded files will be deleted after 10 days. Note: The article specifically mentions Articulate Storyline content, but Tempshare also works with Articulate Studio '13 content.
  • Amazon S3: Amazon S3 offers free hosting with generous usage limits. If you go over your limit, you'll be charged a graduated fee.
  • Dropbox: Place your published output in the Public folder in your Dropbox account to share it with others. (Here's how to enable the Public folder.)
