Removing or Hiding the Previous/Next Buttons?

Hi Ashley,

Thank you for your help! I hadn't disabled the Submit button on the individual questions in the question bank and that was turning on the Prev/Next buttons!

Nice Dena! Glad you get it figured out.

Hi,

I tried what Dena said "Thank you for your help! I hadn't disabled the Submit button on the individual questions in the question bank and that was turning on the Prev/Next buttons!" which is to replace the default SUBMIT button with the custom made SUBMIT button. 

I had turn off the "previous" and "submit" at the setting at base layer. But the PREV button still comes out after I interact with all the question and came back to review it. The most obvious one is the first question as it is the first slide.

I have attached a dummy storyline for your review.

Please help urgent!

Hi Emalyn! Looks like you are getting some assistance here as well. Just wanted to link the threads for anyone following along.

Agreed. This is a pain.

If a user completes the course, by previously pressing Next/Submit (whatever you may have setup as a trigger) and then returns to the same screen and exits - without pressing the trigger button - their completinon flag for this screen will be erased.

Not cool if you are using it, like I am as a trigger to take you to the final screen in a course and the result is going to an LMS.

Has this been resolved yet?

Cheers

Hi James,

It looks like I just answered a similar question of yours in this thread. 

Hi Ashley,

I am facing a similar problem. My course has customized Previous/Next buttons. We have added a customized Submit button for the assessment pages. The Result page has only a Retry Assessment button.

When I try to access the Assessment page by navigating from the Menu, I am unable to click/select the answer options onscreen. The Previous/Next buttons (default ones from Storyline) also appear in UI. 

For the Slide Properties, I have selected "Reset to initial state". 

This issue does not occur when i click the Retry Assessment button. It also works fine when I go through the course for the first time.

Please help!

Hi Mukulika,

What version of Storyline are you using? The prev/next buttons will appear on a revisit to quiz question as described here. In regards to only seeing this behavior when using the menu to jump to the slides - I think we'd want to take a look at your .story file to see how this is behaving and anything else that may be impacting the behavior. 

Hi Ashley,

I am using Storyline 2. I went through the link that you have shared earlier, the issue occuring in my Story file is slightly different as we are using customized navigation buttons and have disabled all the default buttons. 

The issue occurs when we use the menu to access the quiz page after it has been visited at least once. Also, it works fine in the Preview mode. It is only in the published output the isssue is visible.

I am still puzzled as to what I am doing wrong here..

I have enclosed the Story file and the published output for your reference.

Regards,

Mukulika

Hi Mukulika,

Thanks for sharing your file. I took a look during preview, and I do see the next/prev buttons reappear on a revisit to a quiz slide - which as I mentioned is expected based on the link I shared and that Storyline doesn't see your custom navigation and provides a way for users to navigate through the course. Since I don't see any additional information on your slides in regards to how you'd expect the user to navigate once again through the slides they've already visited, using the menu this looks again to be working as expected.
