Adding Date to a certificate
Good afternoon, I created a course completion certificate and I was asked to add the date of completion. I could not find how to do this. I appreciate some direction. Thank you!
You'll need a bit of help from JavaScript. First, create a custom text variable called currentDate in Storyline. Then, insert a text box and reference the currentDate variable. Finally, run the Execute JavaScript trigger with the code below when the timeline starts on this slide:
const currentDate = new Date().toLocaleString('default', { month: 'long', day: 'numeric', year: 'numeric' });
setVar('currentDate', currentDate);Result: January 13, 2025
Find the attached .story file for reference.
