Help needed with Rise code block and images
Hi Community! I'm loving the code block in Rise, but so far, I have only been successful with inserting the code directly into Rise and thus have to use web-stored images.
I've tried multiple times to use the same code, but with images in a zip file and either it just spins and spins and never loads, or I get an error that I need an index.html file at the root level, which I have.
An example is attached. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I don't think I'm quite understanding. Have you seen that images can be imported into the code block? I'm not following why placing the images in a zip would make them easier to use in a code block either.
There are two ways to implement a code block...add code or upload a project. I've been successful adding the code directly (and using web-hosted images), but I would like to use images that are not publicly hosted for some projects, so would need to use the upload functionality. I just can't get it to work.
Neat, I hadn't explored that feature. In looking at your zip, I think the hang-up may have been introduced when creating the zip file. Your zip's root contains a folder that contains the index file and the image folder, so your index is not in the root of the zip, it's one level down.
I suspect this may have happened when the zip was created, probably by right-clicking a folder containing the index and creating the zip from the context menu. The zip will need to be created by lassoing the index and image folder directly, and then creating a zip from their context menu.
Though nothing displays for me when I upload that new zip to a new Rise course, it does upload without error or issue. Hopefully that will get you closer?
Thanks Andrew. I found the same. I'll work with it some more, but I was definitely not including the index.html at the root level. You've gotten me one step closer!
