Links within Rise (i.e. creating a glossary)
Is it possible to create links within Rise to sections within the module? for example, if I have a word such as Rise, that I wish to hyperlink to a glossary within the learning module, is this possible?

Hi Stacy:
To create a series of links to connect to the various sections of your Rise course, try using a BUTTON STACK within a Rise Lesson Block.
You start with 3 buttons to create links with, but you can use the ADD ITEM tool to create more link buttons within that same space.
Editing the buttons allows you to set button link locations, as well as the ability to change the text labels for the buttons.
Note that the coloring of the buttons remain all the same and use the same color as your existing design theme.
Hope this helps!

I literally didn't know that was a thing! And I went to go look and THERE IT WAS! Way to go Mark.

Thanks Ashley!
I've been busy writing up a comprehensive (exhaustive? LOL) review of the complete Articulate 360 Suite this week, and needless to say, Rise is going to get some star billing in that review, which I hope to finish and release this weekend.
More to come soon on that item, both here, and on LinkedIn. ;)

Is it possible to insert a storyfile inside a Rise course? For example, I want to develop a course in Rise but sill have some exercises in it from a previous course I've developed in Storyline.
By the way, an accordion block might be an excellent glossary.

I've been wondering about that Accordion Block! It looks very cool, Adam!
Will need to try that out sometime soon. ;)

I would love to see the feature where I can take the user back to where they were in the lesson by using a hyperlink. This will help when we add glossary to a Rise course. User can then jump back and forth to the glossary and where they were last in the course. Please let me know when is this going to be added?
Great response Mark.
And if you only need one button, the Button block works just the same.

Thanks Adam!
I am LOVING the Rise Button Stack.
Why use ONE Button when you can use MANY? ;)

I love using the accordion with one item. I put in an audio block and then follow that block with a one line accordion to tell my learners 'click here to read the audio transcript'. Works great!

Thanks Mark and Adam, so I would need to create a separate slide for each glossary item then, as I cannot figure out how to link to a specific word as you can in Storyline 2. Looks like just one Glossary that the user must scroll through to find the correct term identified in the link

Hi Stacy:
I don't think is possible within Rise to link to a specific word or content point, like a word or paragraph within a text block, statement, or quote, for example.
You may want to request a new Rise feature for bookmarking a specific point within a Rise course, so you can then be able to link to it in the way you are looking for.

Thansk Mark, I wil send that as a new feature suggestion
Hi Pamela,
I see Michael also responded to you in this forum discussion, and you'll see in that one that Adam shared we're working on a feature that will allow you to publish a Storyline course as a lesson in Rise. We don't yet have an ETA for that yet, but we'll keep you posted here!

The button stack is great, it would be even better if we could upload our own button graphic.

Is it possible to click a button to move to a location within the same lesson? There are several content types a learner can use (video, simulation, documents) that are embedded multiimedia on one page. We want to keep everything on one page so learners don't have to click too much. Is there a way to click the button and it'll take you to the simulation, which is at the bottom of the page?
Hi Bruce,
While there currently isn't a way to link to other blocks within the same lesson, I do think it's a neat idea! If you'd like to share your feedback on this with our Product Team, please share your thoughts with us through a feature request. 😊

so here is an example of creating links to subsections within the same lesson - https://community.articulate.com/series/rise-360/articles/rise-360-outlining-a-course-with-section-headers-and-lesson-titles#add
anyone know how this was accomplished?
