Passing Variable Data Between Storyline Blocks in Rise (a guide)
Did you know that you can use the computer's local storage to pass data from one Storyline block to another one within the same Rise course? Well you can and all it takes is a few simple lines of Ja...
Thank you for sharing this excellent example, Owen! I hope you will see my response. Your example was almost exactly what I need, minus the guide character selection. I just need learners to enter their name then have it show up in the certificate. I’ve attempted to recreate your example, but I don’t really know much about JavaScript and I’m stuck on having the name entered from the first Storyline block to show up in the second, certificate Storyline block. It just keeps showing up as null. The course we are creating will not be in an LMS, only posted to a website. I’m including my files here in the hopes that you or someone else from the Community might be able to help me figure out where I have gone wrong. Thank so much in advance for any help that can be provided!

I'm testing it now but it looks like you might have just skipped the step of getting the name from local storage and passing it into the second block before generating the certificate.
It looks like you were also missing the variable in the certificate file to store the name.
Try this file and see if it resolves your issue. (The name file looked ok to me.)
