Best Practices for Multilingual Courses
I used to create a course with multiple languages, including English, French, Spanish, and Arabic. Considering text labels as Judy metioned, and the different reading direction for Arabic. I utilized separate .story files for each language and published them as distinct SCORM packages. I then consolidated all the SCORM packages into a single package. This package begins with a language selection page, similar to yours, which subsequently links to the appropriate files for the selected language.
would you mind sharing how you packaged everything into one SCORM package and adding the language selection screen?

I'm sorry not to reply earlier, I was too busy to check this thread again. I might find time to share a post about it.But for your question, the simple answer is to open URL/file by a relative link.
For example: you will have three packages if there are two languages.
1.Home package (this will include the lanuage selection screen)
2.Language A package
3.Language B package
Set trigger to open the URL/file when clicking the language BTN. The link will be like:
" ../Home package file name/Language A package file name/story.html"
Then put language packages(unzip file) into the home package file (same level as story.html of the home package file)- DavidMichaelMcD11 months agoCommunity Member
Thank you! I'll definitely try playing around with it to try and get it working!
