I've turned off the option when publishing to use Articulate Mobile Player app. And have the HTML5 output checked. when i go to view story_html5.html on my iPad, it's still detecting my device and giving me the iPad launch screen. is there anyway to turn off the detect or bypass this?
Are you using Mobile Safari on the iPad? To rule out caching as the issue, try changing the Publish title then republish and retest the new content link.
Yes, using mobile Safari on iPad. I changed the title, cleared my cached, etc. I'm just looking to bypass that "launch" page when going to story_html5.html. Basically i want to remove the step of the initial screen where a user has to click the blue Play button (and see the thumbnail on the upper right). I just want them to jump into the interaction without this interim page.
My apologies for misunderstanding. This by design as noted here and cannot be removed. If you would like to see this changed please submit a feature request here.
Hi, there is a hack you can make to the storyline compile.js file to prevent the launch page from displaying in html5. Here is the hack just remember you have to make this edit every time you republish.

Hi Jackie,
Here is the solution which i found in the forum.

In storylinecompiled.js
find
player.launch.find("a").first().click(player.revealPostInterstitial);player.populateIOSLaunch();
After the part that says "player.populateIOSLaunch();" paste in this bit:
player.revealPostInterstitial();
Thanks,
Jyothi

Hello Jyothi,
I know it has been well over a year since your post, but it was exactly what I was looking for.
The "hack" worked just as I needed it to....thank you!
All the Best,
Adam
p.s. Jackie what was your experience with it?
Glad that this thread helped you out Adam!
