Remove course cover page?
Is there a way to remove the cover page altogether? I'm referring to the first page you see with the Start Course button, Details link, and content areas listed below. When my learner clicks to vi...
I found this on another thread, have not tried it yet, but perhaps it will work. Posted 5 years ago(!) (here's the thread)
I found the answer I was looking for... After publishing, you can edit the indexAPI.html file with the starting page of your choice.
- First you'll need the URL of the page you'd like to start on. Unzip the exported course and in the "scormcontent" folder, open "index.html" in your browser.
- Navigate to the page you want and copy the URL after "index.html#". Should look something like: file:///C:/Users/User/Documents/TrainingPackage/scormcontent/index.html#/lessons/-abcdefghijklmnops?_k=xyzmp30
- Go back to the unzipped course files, in the "scormdriver" folder, open "indexAPI.html" with Notepad++
- Search for "StrContentLesson" and find the line: strContentLocation = "../scormcontent/index.html#/preview";
- In the indexAPI.html file, replace "preview" with the URL of the page you'd like to start on:
strContentLocation = "../scormcontent/index.html#/lessons/-abcdefghijklmnops?_k=xyzmp30"; - Save the indexAPI. html file.
- Rezip the files and you're good to go!
Hey Emma 👋
That should work. I’m using something almost identical in one of my projects: Way to bypass the starting page?
The one thing I’d be careful with is the lesson ID - the part after index.html#/. It shouldn’t need the ?_k=… part.
Including that may cause an error, or it may be okay.
