Skip the Into Page > Immediately Start Course
We are working with a large corporation that hosts the rise modules on their internal LMS system.
Here is an example of one of the assets we created.
With some hacks we have been able to add "share this" functionality to the site. We want our users to share what they have learned with the outside world. Part of this would be creating "Teasers" of the rise modules that would sit on the open web, for anybody to view. These teasers would then direct them to the portal where they can signup and pay for the course etc.
Here is an example of our "teaser"

I want to use the mapping tool option as an item someone could share. HOWEVER. I don't think in this use case we need to have them "Continue" or "Start Course" - I really just want them to come directly to the first lesson.
So that it's the first thing they view. Is something like that possible, has anybody come across a hack that would accomplish this?
It almost makes you wonder if Articulate doesn't want Rise to be used this way.
Yes. If they did skip the start page the Rise content could be used anywhere in a website. It would become a fast and general web content creation tool. I suspect they've decided they want to maintain their focus in eLearning design and not see their advantage watered down.
That being said, if someone wants to be $X,XXX for a web builder, good luck to them :)
+1 to be able to skip the front page and start directly with the first lesson! This should be implemented into the course settings menu.
Every time someone comments I get a notification and I hope it is Articulate saying they have made this a publish option. But Alas not! Sorry people.
I have figured out a way to bypass the start page if using the web export option. If interested, feel free to email me at augert@me.com.
Why not just post it here? Why make us jump through hoops to get a solution?
One of the reasons I would like this feature is that we sometimes enter courses different ways, so always having to see the top banner and start button can mess up the flow. This is also the case when wanting to build branching scenarios when wanting to link to a separate Rise. It would work beautifully if you could skip the start button, but as it is, it doesn't work so well for this.
Me too. Thanks
