Rise Button stack

Hi Mikki!  If your button takes you to another web page, it will likely open in another browser tab.  You can either close the new tab or click back onto your Rise tab.

If the button takes you to another lesson (and maybe it's deep into another part of the course), you can use your browser back button to return to the button stack page.

Let me know if you have a different scenario!

I have the same question when the button takes you to another lesson.  I find that the browser back button returns the user to the top of the lesson page, requiring the user to scroll back down to the bottom to continue.  If the lesson is long, it may not be obvious that they got back to where they just were.  Would be better if there was some way to return the user back to the buttons....  Is there another solution?

Cool idea, Angel - thanks for sharing here! 

Marc, let us know if that works for you!

I think that’s a great solution, but only if the second referenced lesson was linked only to that one original.  I was intending on having several lessons reference that same second one, so one button B wouldn’t work.... I guesss I could look at adding multiple “go back” buttons that specify where to go back to, but that sounds messy.....

Is there a way for the second lesson to open in a separate browser tab?

Hi Marc,

If you're using a Button Block to link to another lesson, the learner will navigate to that lesson in the same browser tab.

If you're using the button to link to another webpage, the webpage will open in a new tab. 

Is there a way to add button stack without any text as an explanation? I want to center the button stack in the middle of the page. 

Hi Elizabeth,

While you can remove the text to the left of the buttons, there isn't a way to align the buttons to the center of the page.

Can you tell me more about what you're trying to achieve? There could be another way to go about it!

Hi Elizabeth!

Thanks for that extra detail. Did you want the buttons to link to other lessons in the Rise course, or did you want them to link to an outside web resource? 

By the way, you can edit out your contact information from your post if you'd like!  Replying via email will include your signature.

Hi Mish,

What a cool demo! I inspected the source on this lesson in Chrome by going to View > Developer Tools> Inspect Elements. The source shows us it is a button block, but it appears that the author edited the published output to center the button. 

If you know who created this demo, reach out to the author to find out their secret!
