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?
This is absolutely essential in my view. There is a whole range of possibilities which I can't exploit due to this limitation. Please add this feature ASAP.
I had this same question. Just put in a feature request. I need to be able to let users "click here to jump to that content" from a text link in a block. :)
Hey George,
I also requested this but added being able to use images as buttons. This would open up a whole lot of useful navigation. Unfortunately, Articulate keeps pumping out features that are cool but less than useful. Rise is already nicely designed. Start giving us the ability to create new experiences. This link feature people are looking for would have been a better release than the new theme capabilities.
For this feature to be added everyone here need to go to the feature request form and ask for it there. Your request doesn't count here.
I echo that as well. New themes are interesting but other than that, the base theme with better functionality would produce better learning experiences. The base theme wasn't ugly, it just lacked some essential functionality. Now we have a group of these that likewise miss out on functionality. Articulate has always been the company by Instructional Designers for Instructional designers - it is what separates you from the competition. That said, did anyone ask an ID on your team if we should theme over learning experience?
I agree. This would be really useful. And the functionality is already there for buttons, we just need the same drop-down menu for links...
Is it possible to place a link in the scenario text, linking to a block in the same lesson, ie watch the how to save settings video by clicking here; and the link takes the learner to a video block in the same lesson ( hopefully that makes sense)
Hi there, Aaron. That isn't possible right now. We are actually tracking requests for two features that might help you:
- hyperlinking to lessons from a scenario block
- linking to specific blocks within the same lesson
I'll make sure this discussion gets updated with any changes in those areas!
Hi there,
May I add my voice to the need to be able to link to specific blocks within the same lesson. Currently having to use Storyline to do this but would love to be able to use RISE instead.
Regards.
I also second Elena's request, otherwise it makes for very clunky navigation between lessons.
I will also join all my fellow RISE users with these hope and wishes for the New Year:-)
I'm creating a glossary where I hoped it could be possible to link specific word in text to specific block or module in the same course/glossary, so it could be more interactive. Not possible now:-(
Feature request: Hyperlinking in Rise
- Hyperlinking to lessons from a block
- Linking to specific blocks within the same lessonThe feature could also be used in the search functionality (which I really like). In stead of just send you to the module and highlighting the word, you could be send to the specific block where the word appear. It could be a setting that could be turned ON/OFF.
Best regards
Ole DjurhuusThis is exactly what I'm trying to do right now. My client wants to link the glossary terms (where they appear contextually, in-line in the course) to the glossary "lesson" at the end of the course. I wish there was a feature (or even a workaround) for this-- and I agree that this is absolutely essential.
Hello is it still not possible after 5 years to link to other lessons within the course via the text link? I need the links to other lessons for the labelled graphic. I cannot use the buttons for this purpose.
5 years later, still no out-of-the-box solution?
It is quite disappointing
Hi Yannick!
Thanks for letting us know you have a need to hyperlink to other lessons within a Rise course. As you mentioned, the Button Block or Button Stack would be the best way to link to other lessons currently. If we add this hyperlinking feature to Rise in the future, we'll let you know!
Hi Alyssa,
Is there no way to get the relative URL of a lesson? I need to be able to link to an individual lesson from the web page where my course is launched, as well as link between lessons using hyperlinks.
