RISE including images not used in SCORM file

Hi team, I published my Rise course like normal this morning. It's nothing crazy and the output file is 193mb!! So, then I checked the assets and there are over 250 high-res images that I never imported into that course.  I checked some of the images and it looks like it's coming from the background images and it's blowing out my file size.

Any one have any idea what's going on??

  • Hi Bailey!

    I understand you encountered an issue where many high-resolution content library images not used in your course are added to your published output, and is increasing your file size.

    We are able to replicate the issue and also logged it as a possible software bug.

    As a workaround, you are correct that you can safely delete the unused images from the Assets folder in the published output to minimize the package's file size and still upload the course to your LMS.
     
    We'll update this thread once this has been fixed.

      Has this been resolved yet?  These posts were 10 months ago and I'm seeing the same issue with a file I just worked on today.  With the number of revisions our files go through it is incredibly inconvenient to have to go through and manually remove a bunch of 1.5 MB images and re-zip the file each time.

        Not yet Cindy. I had to do manual work arounds on 5 files and they were big files too! :(

      Hi,

      I'm seeing the exactly same thing.

      I published a very small course with only a few small images and the SOCROM is 75 mb in size.

      I found 60 random Content Library images (average 1 MB each) in the ZIP file which I have never used or seen before.

        ok, I'm glad it's not just me. Its hella annoying having to go in, identify each image and delete the ones I never used.
