Links to web pages not working
Hi Chris and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
Do you have a .story file that we could take a look at?
Are you uploading the published content to the intended environment prior to viewing? We would not expect the hyperlinks to work when viewing locally.
Hi Leslie, i'm not quite sure what you mean by local environment. I'm at work so it's all with in the corporate network. As I mentioned, I follow the recommended procedure to publish to web to your local C drive, then copy the output folder to a shared drive. The links are either to external public hosted pages or internal sharepoint sites. What seems to be the problem is multifaceted. The trainer can look fine, that is the link text information appears correct but when you preview the slide or run the published version, The identified text is indeed not clickable it's just formatted text. The other thing going on is that the link text box contents itself corrupts. In one instance, the text link contents was completely blank and in another it was just the period at the end of the text that was originally highlighted. I had to reestablish so many links yesterday I can't even remember how many. Using the Control + K tip was helpful because you can't set the trigger properly by just using the mouse to highlight and select the options within the trigger wizard as I had mentioned. The trigger was thinking I wanted to jump to the URL if the entire text box was selected which of course is not what I wanted. I've forgotten how to share a story file in the forum? Can I share privately to you since our training content is confidential?
