I have just spotted a new button when publishing Rise to LMS (it could have been there a while, but I have only just seen it).Only Load in LMS Please can anybody advise me when this button first appeared, and if they have had any issues with it? It defaults to "On" and I am concerned we may have published content with it checked without realising - hopefully, it just means people can only access content from our LMS but just concerned in case it effects links from other web pages to our content.Thanks

Yes, please could someone provide more information on what this button means? What is the difference in behavior of the course with the option "ON" vs. "OFF" ?

Hi Everyone! Happy to provide more clarity on the Rise 360 setting, Only Load in LMS! If your Rise 360 course contains content and elements that must be launched in a separate window, outside of an LMS environment, we suggest toggling this feature Off when publishing. However, please note that Quiz and Completion tracking will not be supported in these additional windows. To prevent Rise 360 content from being launched and viewed in separate windows outside of your LMS, Only Load in LMS should be toggled On. Please let us know if you have any more questions!

Hi ShelbyPittman-a! Absolutely! Happy to explain this further! The Rise 360 publish setting Only Load in LMS does not control whether regular links open in new tabs or windows. Links (including button hyperlinks) behave the same either way because those settings are handled by the browser and not Rise 360. What the setting does control is whether the Rise course itself is allowed to run outside of an LMS context. For example, if someone opens the course URL directly, or if the course launches itself into a new window outside of an LMS shell. Imagine your Rise course is published to an LMS and normally launches inside the LMS player. Only Load in LMS = ON The course checks: "Am I running inside an LMS?" If yes, it loads normally. If no, it will not fully load the course content. Only Load in LMS = OFF The course does not require an LMS environment and can load even if: Someone opens the course URL directly. The course is launched into a separate browser window. The LMS spawns additional windows outside of the main player. Also, in those cases, quiz and completion tracking will not function in the additional windows. Essentially, this setting governs where the Rise course can run, not how links inside the course behave. Please let me know if you still have questions!

Yes, will someone confirm Sarah's statement? I have two Rise courses that our LMS team cannot get to upload. They do have a web page link, so could this be the cause?

I can't speak generically, but we tested a course with the toggle on, and links within the course worked fine. It prevented us from opening any additional sessions of the course. IF you don't receive a response from Articulate soon, I'd partner with your LMS administrator to test a course and make sure it works the way you're expecting.

Hello SarahWhitfie615! You found it fast, as this addition was just released yesterday! If you haven't published any courses since yesterday, then this toggle wouldn't have impacted your previous courses. If you did publish courses yesterday or today, then you'd need to republish if you don't want that option toggled on.

  Thanks for advising and for the link - although maybe it was released earlier in UK as I saw this last week and we had a query about it from our translation agency on Monday (Dec 1st).
  
  Just to confirm - if we have links in our courses where we want the user to open a web page in a new window, we have to toggle this option off.
