Button block destination: Link to relative URL

Our Rise course has quite a few links in it. We have used Button blocks with the destination: Link to relative URL.

The links are opening in a new tab, but the tab the course is in then closes in the background.

I would really like to the links to open like a pop-up window, I am not sure how to make this happen.

I have spoken to our LMS vendor to check the issue is not is in the LMS, they believe the issue is within the SCORM itself.

Your advice please.

    Our LMS is set up to open all links in a new tab, keeping the Rise course open in it's own tab

  • Hello Fionna,

    Happy to chime in! I appreciate you sharing the Rise published zipped output. I uploaded it to our testing LMS platform, SCORM Cloud, and noticed that clicking on the Button block opens the URL in a new tab. The tab containing the Rise course remained open but in another window.

    Here's a Peek recording of what I see. You can also test the uploaded course in SCORM Cloud with this invite link. If what you see in SCORM Cloud differs from the tab behavior in your LMS, I recommend reaching out to your LMS administrator if there's a setting they can tweak to achieve your desired outcome.

    Let me know if your LMS administrator needs any information from us. I'd be happy to help.
