Links to web pages not working
There is post after post about links to URL's not working and they are about to put me over the edge. I have a course with many text links within text boxes. I did not design the course and no option to redevelop at this late stage. Similar to some above, these are links to internal sharepoint sites at work except one or two public URL pages. Links are a real issue that need addressing in SL2 IMO. The triggers at times either don't work or one that was perfectly fine on one version of the course (version two was saved as to create a derivative course) are hosed in the second. I primarily publish to my local C drive at work as I was advised and then copy output to our network shared drives. And don't be fooled... testing the links simply by clicking the check link button next to the URL path in the trigger wizard window, that just opens the link. That's not testing whether your, in my case, 'text within xxxx' text box works. I published version 2 to my SME testers and I'm embarrassed they reported some 20 errors on non working links. In one case, linked text (top box of the wizard) somehow shows only the period at the end of the line. Another one is completely blank for link text. And when you highlight text within a text box to add (re-add) the trigger, it thinks you want the trigger to fire when clicking the box, not the highlighted text within the box. C'mon Articulate, please fix this in an update soon.
