1- Delete the "Jump to Next slide trigger" from the Player Triggers.
2- Go to the setting/properties of Base layer (starting layer) and unchecked the NEXT-PREVIOUS buttons. Also for custom slides you can change it from Option "Player features"
Yes I know you can disable forward navigation that way, but I only want to disable until the user has clicked the click to begin which displays a layer of text and then I want to allow the user to navigate forward. I thought there may be a way ...
This means that Text Box 2 doesn't have a visited state, so the trigger you've set up won't work. You're asking Storyline to change the state of the 'next 1 - "Chord 1"' object to normal when the Text Box 2 state = visited. Storyline is telling you it can't do that because Text Box 2 doesn't have a visited state.
You can check out what states an object has by clicking the object on the slide, then clicking the States tab. As you see below, this text box only has a Normal state.

Hi Jane,
You can restrict the user by two ways:
1- Delete the "Jump to Next slide trigger" from the Player Triggers.
2- Go to the setting/properties of Base layer (starting layer) and unchecked the NEXT-PREVIOUS buttons. Also for custom slides you can change it from Option "Player features"
Best,

hi Jane,
I think you should add a true/false trigger on custom button as it worked for me.
I hope it will be worthy for you.

Hi Jane,
Similiar to the example Anum shared with you, this tutorial describes how to restrict navigation until a user has interacted with all the elements of your slide.
Thank you Anum and Ashley thats really helpful

Hi Ashley
I followed the tutorial and all was going well until I got this message, any idea what this means?
