Best Practices for Multilingual Courses
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)
Thank you! I'll definitely try playing around with it to try and get it working!
This is exactly the solution I need, but I'm not having any success with the method above. I'm guessing it's a syntax thing. I'm using this to launch Rise courses, could that be the issue?
The course launches fine, but I get an error message when trying to select my language. I'm testing on ScormCloud.
Any help would be extremely appreciated! I've got screenshots below of my triggers and file structure.
Hi JohnathanPoe048,
From your images, it looks like you placed the package files at the correct level (the same level as in the home package file). However, the triggers to open the URL/file don't seem right to me.
Try '../Language Selector_URL Test/english/index.htm' and '../Language Selector_URL Test/spanish/index.htm.'
I'm not sure why you included a 'scormconte' folder outside the file. Normally, you would place the file directly at the first level.That is where my index.html file is located. I thought that was the file I had to reference to launch the course, but is there another way to do it?
