Articulate Presenter on Sharepoint?

Hi Sarah...Are you publishing the course for web? I figured out that was the main issue. If you publish to LMS the course will not function correctly. Once you publish to web take all of your files (including the sub folders) and place them on SP.

Also, it might help to know how you are loading to sharepoint. Are you using explorer view? Are you using MS SharePoint Designer? How is your security set for the files? Do they inherit the level from their parent?

Hi all,

I am publishing in Web format. However I am not too familair with things like security for the files or inheriting from the parent.

We used to use Adobe Captivate and when these files were uploaded they just worked so I have never had to change any settings.

I followed these instructions, but when I test the plyer nothing happens.

Host the project:

1. Create a portal site. It is important that you create this site at the highest level possible. We found that SP has problems if the file path gets too lengthy.

2. Create a document library in the portal site you created in step 1. You may have to get IT to help you create a high level portal site. At our company, we had to have IT create it and then give us owner permissions to manage it.

3. In the document library, create a folder for each CBT with a unique name.

4. Inside each folder, place all the fodlers/sub-folders of the corresponding published Articulate package (using publish for Web in Articulate)

5. The player icon will be in this main folder, that is what you will link to. Right click and choose "copy shortcut"

I  will pass this over to a colleague who is more familiar with SharePoint so hopefully he can figure out what I'm doing.

The only thing that might matter is that this project was published with a trial version as we have not yet received our licence key. Maybe this makes a difference?

That shouldn't create any problems. The temp trial version license isn't the issue.
Any chance you can take any screen shots at different points in your process? This would maybe help us see at which point the problem is created.

Also, are you using any special characters in any of the names of your files? Often, this will cause issues with sharepoint....

Hi Owen,

I sent it onto my colleague who managed to solve it.

He copied the entire folder over and that worked. I think the problem I was facing was that I copied each individual item in the published output folder into SharePoint as opposed to moving the entire published output folder in one go.

Thanks for your help!

Like previous poster the file just downloads the html file.

Hi Steven! 

This thread is a bit dated and I'm not sure what you are referring to here. Are you having an issue with something that we could assist with?

Perhaps this solution share in another forum thread will be able to assist you. Looks like you may need to change .html to .aspx.

I'm not Sharepoint expert, but I hope that helps or that someone else in the community will be able to assist.

Hi,

When I load Web published Articulate module into SharePoint as stated above, I click on the presentation html launch in SharePoint to test, and I just get the spinning circle like it cannot find the files. I know it something simple. Can some shed some light on what I am doing wrong. Should this be a ZIP file?

Hi Mike,

Just to recap everything that's been shared about hosting content in SharePoint, you should be able to host Articulate content in SharePoint Server. However, it won't work with SharePoint Online (the Microsoft Office 365 Hosted Edition) since it doesn't support HTML files.

If you're using SharePoint Server, check with your SharePoint administrator for instructions on how to upload HTML content. Depending on your version of SharePoint, you may need to switch to "explorer view" before uploading content, or you may need to "check in" content after uploading it. Your administrator will know for sure.

Some users have found that renaming the .html files in the published output to .aspx worked for them as mentioned by my colleague, but this is something we do not support so please try this at your own discretion.
