Quiz "Next" Button - still shows up after disabled

In my Storyline project (call it Part B), I have a quiz that draws from a question bank. In the slide layers tab, the "Previous" and "Next" Buttons are deselected, while the "Submit" button is enabled. However, when previewing the quiz, "Next" is still showing up.

I've tried restarting, deleted the whole scene that contains the quiz and rebuilding it again, and nothing seems to work.

In addition, I have another project (call it Part A) that is seemingly formatted the exact same way as Part B, with all the exact same triggers and slide layers, but the "next" button doesn't show up. I've searched all through the project, and it seems that Part A and Part B are identical in how the quizzes are structured and formatted.

Any advice or insight would be appreciated!

  • Hi NateCole! Thanks for sharing all those details. That’s super helpful.

    When you're working with question bank slides, Storyline handles them a bit differently from regular slides. Even if you’ve turned off the “Next” button in the Slide Properties panel, the visibility settings for those slides can sometimes inherit from the question bank’s draw settings, the player template, or even the master slide.

    This often happens if the original question slide (before being added to the bank or duplicated) had the “Next” button enabled, or if the player navigation is turned on globally.

    Here’s what I’d try next:

    • Check your question bank draw settings.
    • Look at the player properties and master slides to see if the “Next” button is enabled there.

    If you'd like our team to take a look at your project file, you can share it privately in a support case.
