Microlearning - hide cover page when publishing to WEB
When publishing a microlearning to LMS, you are given some options, such as hiding the cover page.
When publishing to the WEB, no such options page is displayed and the object is immediately downloaded:
Is there a way to turn off the cover page for WEB based microlearning modules?

Hi Tim,
No, when publishing in Rise there is no way to turn off the cover page for WEB based microlearning modules.
This seems strange. It’s allowed when publishing one type but not another? Is this just because the developers forgot that some people use the web option, or can you think of a good reason why it makes sense not to have options when publishing to the web?
The fact you can turn it off for LMS but not for web is strange.
Hi Tim!
Glad to see Karl has been helping you out!
I'm happy to share we are tracking a feature request to give authors the ability to toggle the cover page on and off when publishing from Rise 360 to the Web. I've linked this discussion to the feature report and will provide updates if it makes it onto our Feature Roadmap.
Dear Steven, it would be fantastic if you could push this feature soon. I'm publishing microlearnings via iframe, and the small arrow at the bottom that takes users from the cover page to the actual content is very non-obvious, thus requiring me to add instructions to click/tap on it to move to the actual lesson content instead of hitting the Next button at the bottom of the iframe which takes users to the next lesson. Having no cover page would make users simply scroll down.
Turning off the cover page would be a good feature since we can replicate the same behavior with more options by using blocks.
For instance, we're planning to color-code different learning pathways, and we can't do that with the cover page, but we could do it with blocks.
Hi Jason!
Thanks for the feedback on the type of functionality you'd like to see in Rise 360!
I've included you in the feature report and will share updates if it makes it onto our Feature Roadmap. Have a great start to your week!
Hi Jason - any updates on the roll out of this option to turn off the cover page for web publishing? I am working on creating labeled graphics interactions using micro-learning in Rise 360 to be inserted as Web Objects into our main EL content development tool iSpring Suite (sorry - side note: we've been using iSpring Suite since Articulate dropped the 'ball' when the went from Articulate '09 to '13 - but the interactions that iSpring Suite supports while easy to build, are lousy from a learners perspective - hence looking at using Rise or SL to build these). However, I want to just display the interactions not the cover page.
