Linking to a .pdf file in rise
Is there a way to link to a .pdf in rise? I see how to link to a web page or another rise lesson, but I need users to be able to download a document from the site. Any ideas or workarounds?
You could build a lesson in Rise just to host the resources, like an external storage only inside the course. You could put in PDFs as attachment blocks in the Resources lesson. Then, on the download button, right-click and copy the link. Then, go back to your actual lessons and paste the URL into any text where you want the link.
The Resources lesson will still be visible in your course, but you could label it "Resources - DO NOT ACCESS". You could also build an Exit Course button within the final lesson that occurs before the Resources lesson.
