Can you format audio to play automatically in Rise 360?
Hello!
I am new to Rise360, and have an audio file that I want to play automatically when a section is clicked on, is that possible?
Thanks!

Hi Amy,
There is no auto-play of audio in Rise 360. A lot of browsers don't allow auto-play anyway, and as an accessibility best practice it's better to give learners control over any audio/video!
I have played with a work-around in our environment using our media storage platform, Panopto. In my testing, I've uploaded audio files to Panopto so I can get an embed code for the audio. In the player settings for Panopto, it has an auto-play option. So when the code is added to a block, it will play automatically. I've also tested completely hiding the player by setting the size of the player to 0 wide x 0 high. This allows the audio to play automatically when a user enters the block without showing player controls.
I would imagine there might be options to do this with other media storage platforms as well.
