Issue with reporting custom variables

I am trying to do a self-assessment for someone to assess their AI skills. I have used a template that was provided previously by the community (thank you!).

It works brilliantly but I want to capture a user's final self-assessment score without them having to submit it manually e.g. if they are a beginner, intermediate, advanced.

I have tried to use the guidance in these links:

Everything works up until the Submit Interaction trigger. If I try to set this so it executes when the timeline starts, it doesn't work - it just shows the text box populated with the right variable but you can't click submit. 

However, when I adjust this so the user has to manually submit, the text box is populated with the right variable and when the user manually submits, it sends them to the results page, which is the desired behavior.

I've tried with both a Short Answer slide and a Numeric Value slide. Both have the same thing happening.

  • The user clicking Submit triggers the course to progress to the next slide. When you have a trigger submit the interaction, the Submit button kind of deactivates since the interaction cannot be resubmitted.

    I added a "Jump to next slide when the timeline ends" trigger to your persona-sending slide and it progressed appropriately. In short, there's nothing currently to send the learner to the next slide.
