copying text with links into Rise 360

Hello everyone,

I'm sure this simple question has been asked and answered before, but I could not find it.  I am converting text from a static web page into Rise 360 lessons.  When I copy the text with hyperlinks and paste into Rise, the links are removed.  I tried copying into MS Word, then into Rise but it didn't work either.  Does anyone know if there is a way to get text with links into Rise other than having to re-create each hyperlink manually?

Thanks in advance for any help!

    HI Tamara,

    There is no built-in functionality within Rise that maintains links when copying and pasting text from Word.

    Unfortunately you need to re-create each hyperlink manually in Rise.

    Fortunately you can, I discovered this secret when migrating into another system, happens to work with Rise. Note- I would not recommend using this method your source html is not well formatted, or has a bunch of images. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeKqCOPagqA
