Linking between lessons
I'd like to link other lessons in Rise. I see that the button block element supports linking to other lessons in the same course (via the Destination dropdown), but I also want to use hyperlinks in the text to link to other lessons. How can I get the relative URL so I can hyperlink?

Bummer. I found this thread and was hoping I would get to the last page and see that there was a way to link text to a different lesson. Please +1 add this feature. Thank you!

Echo this too. Very much needed

Bumping the thread to see if this issue has been resolved. I have a lesson where I'd like to say, "If any of this is confusing, review Lesson X," where Lesson X is the previous lesson in the sequence.

Hi James,
This is currently possible.
Create a Button block.
Edit the text on the left to say "If any of this is confusing, review Lesson X".
Edit the button to say "Lesson x".
Choose Lesson X as the destination.
A button click will go to the start of Lesson X.

Team Articulate... are you not concerned with what your consumers are requesting?!?!?

Again this feature was requested 4 years ago. I've come to the conclusion that Rise is almost useles,s as everything I need to be able to do can't be done. And when it is requested by anyone it isn't implemented.
What do the development team actually do??
- JamesMartin-49fCommunity Member
Karl posted a solution, and I implemented it. Problem solved. If "everything you need to be able to do" can't be done in Rise, maybe it isn't the right tool to solve your problem. It's a website builder, basically. It's like Squarespace with some additional features that are friendly to learning developers.

Has this feature been added to Rise yet? I too have a huge need to hyperlink to specific areas in a course using text. I see this topic was first brought up 4 years ago, any progress?

Is there a way to either create a link to another lesson using hyperlinks or create a button in a Review 360 course that links directly to a lesson? Both would be incredibly helpful.
Hello Kristen,
If you upload your course to a web server, you should be able to take the URL shown in the browser while viewing the lesson that you would like to link to and place this link inside a hyperlink or button stack.
This solution is very similar to the one shared by Wendy in this thread. Basically, you'll need to copy the exact URL shown in a browser while you're viewing a specific lesson and then add this to either a hyperlink or button stack in order to directly navigate your learners to this lesson.

All,
The only danger here is an LMS that does not allow deep linking. When you do this in the SCORM manifest itself there is no issue, but when you do this in an LMS, the URL in the address bar is not always the correct URL as it includes the user ID of the person taking the course via the SCORM runtime.

I would love an option to hyperlink to another Rise 360 course. Right now, I have to publish the first course to SCORM, then grab the specific lesson link and update it in my second course. This is going to be a nightmare when I have updates.
