Skipping content in Rise

Nov 28, 2016

Hello - 

I am attempting to develop a compliance course in Rise (and I'm SUPER excited about the capabilities, particularly for deployment on iphones via our LMS) but I've noticed I can complete the course even if I skip content, such as tabs and accordion interactions (I can just scroll right past them, and to the casual user they might not realize they are skipping content unless they look closely). Is there a way to lock the user from scrolling past this content?

I should add that since this is a compliance course my stakeholders (i.e. Legal) are pretty particular about skipping content, otherwise I'd consider this an ideal solution (with over 7k learners on ipads/iphones only, I've spent the better part of a year searching for a rapid dev tool, but unfortunately I can't use Rise if content can be skipped).

Hey Leigh - thanks so much for your wonderful compliments about Rise. We're super excited that you're super excited. 

Right now we don't force a user to click though all the items in a tabs or accordion interaction. We'll put it on the board to consider it for a future release. 

In the meantime, perhaps you could just not use those block types? Or, be sure to insert paragraph blocks before your multi-step interactions so the user knows to click through all the steps. 

And for multi-step interactions where you need every item counted, I would try Labeled Graphic, Process and Sorting.

Leigh. mark Aiston here in Adelaide. I am also building a compliance course. You may be a good person for me to ask this question. Are you voicing the text based slides on your course. Or are you happy and confident the user will read the text or go through the multi choice slide and simply read it ..

Hi Rashi,

You'll need to do a couple of things to make it compulsory to finish the videos first before moving to the next lesson:

  1. Disable Forward Seeking.  To do this, click on Edit on the left side of the video and select Settings.  Uncheck "Allow Forward Seeking."
  2. Add a Continue block right after the video.  Then set it to "Complete Block Directly Above" by clicking on Edit on the left side of the Continue block, and under the Content tab, select this option for Completion Type.

You can also use a Continue block if you want your users to view the contents of the Accordion block also.

Here's an article that should help expound on how to control navigation in Rise, which includes using Continue blocks to reveal the content I describe above.
