Can we change background color in Modern Player - Storyline 360
@Leslie why remove jQuery? It was one of the best things you did when you included it. Was this an arbitrary move on your part without duscussing it with your customers? We have used jQuery alot and are always looking at new ways to use it. Now we will have to go back to the dark ages and manually edit the Html to reference it...... Its such a retrograde step.... very disappointed.... please put it back.
Hi David,
We’re always on the lookout for new security concerns and ways to counteract them. Since jQuery has the potential to be exploited and Storyline 360 no longer uses it, we removed jQuery from Storyline 360 on January 21, 2020. If you’re comfortable with jQuery, you can still use it to write custom JavaScript triggers. You just need to reference the jQuery library directly.

But what are these security concerns? I believe the last security vulnerability was prototype pollution, which was patched in May last year. The last major security concern was 3 years before that. jQuery is still actively maintained and if articulate kept jQuery updated there would be no concerns. So I ask again exactly what security concerns are Articulate addressing?
Why was there no consultation or warning that this was going to happen so that we could prepare for it?
