Course resets after completion despite resume settings in Player
Hi, my team is facing an issue in which all our courses, after being completed by students, completely reset.
Our courses all have Restricted menu navigation so that users may not jump ahead, but ...
Hi there,
I'm having the issue that if the user completes the course, exits out (successfully completed in LMS), and then resumes their session, the course is then marked incomplete. You say "In review mode, resume data is no longer sent to the LMS, which prevents learners from accidentally changing their course status from complete back to incomplete.", but that is exactly what is happening. REVIEW_MODE_IS_READ_ONLY is = true in scormdriver.js, so according to what you say, it shouldn't be changing anything. I'm verifying the issue in SCORMCloud. Please respond as soon as possible, as it's getting towards the end of the year, and we need to submit this to them before they go on holiday break. Thanks.
Hello Matt!
I'm sorry to hear you've hit this snag with the resume function and tracking of a completed Storyline course; I'm happy to help! You shared about the value of the REVIEW_MODE_IS_READ_ONLY variable in your course. Have you tried changing it to false, as described in this article? If this doesn't help, we'll be happy to look at your file so that we can make a good recommendation for the next steps. We understand the urgency of the matter and will try our best to respond as soon as possible.
You may share a copy of your Storyline file here or privately through a support case. We'll delete it from our systems when we're done!
Hi there, I was able to find a workaround for this project (if the client sets the variable on their LMS, me setting the variable doesn't really address it), but your comment doesn't address the overall issue.
Your documentation says if REVIEW_MODE_IS_READ_ONLY is set to true, it will not save user data to the LMS anymore. But this is not true, once the user goes back into the course, it changes completion to false. The user has to go somewhere that sets completion to the LMS again in order for completion to be set back to true. It almost sounds like this is a code order issue (it resets completion before it checks this variable). Can this be looked into and fixed, given people have been commenting on this for years?Hi Matt!
