Faster ways to QA narration, CC, and Notes in Storyline
Hi! Does anyone have tips or hacks for making sure narration matches the CC and Transcripts/Notes? My job requires this along with specific formatting for certain words. What I've been doing: - Using Search & Find to look for specific words - Exporting narration .vtt files and comparing them to the Notes Both work but are really tedious. On top of that, some words in the TTS/AI narration have to be spelled phonetically to get the right pronunciation, so the generated CC text doesn't always match what should actually appear in the CC and Notes. Has anyone found a faster way to manage this? Any workflow tips would be appreciated! TIA!Storyline Accessible Video Controls seem to make accessibility worse?
Opening this conversation up to hear everyone's opinion. Being that Storyline accessibility checker strongly suggests (based on WCAG) to enable video controls when you embed a video, I'm wondering if this is not ALWAYS the best solution. For example, if I am a screen reader user, relying on the information provided to me through audio, and there are two timelines (the main one and the video timeline) wouldn't this cause confusion? Furthermore, lets say you have set up some sort of visual where the video only takes up a certain amount(lets say 1/3) of the screen). On one side you have the video, on the other you have bulleted notes. Someone (using a screen reader or not) would click into there, meanwhile the main timeline is still playing! The only conceivable idea where I think having the video controls could be applicable is when your video takes up a whole slide size running the duration of the slide. Curious what I am missing from my thinking here, or what others think on this topic?Web publishing on Filezilla -Showing 403 error or just white screen
I am new to Articulate 360. I have used Adobe Captivate for 15 years. I am trying to publish my first Storyline course. It shows successfully in preview. I am using Filezilla as a server. I have set the transfer type to binary. Everything appears to publish correctly but I either get a 403 error or just a white screen when I publish. Is there a setting I need to change. Does anyone have experience publishing on Filezilla? Please let me know. -Thank youModule Review
Hope you all had a great weekend! I recently completed an eLearning work sample and would love some honest feedback from fellow instructional designers and eLearning professionals. As a personal challenge, I took one of Tim Slade’s design challenges and transformed it into a fully interactive eLearning module. I’m especially interested in feedback on the overall design, user experience, content flow, interactions, and any areas that could be improved.

I truly appreciate any insights, suggestions, or constructive feedback you can share!Accessibility - Screen Readers and TTS
Hi, I'm currently completing an apprenticeship in Digital Learning Design, and I'm working through some content on accessibility. Previously, all our storyline courses had text-to-speech added on, but the accessibility features such as alt text and focus orders weren't used. Since I've learnt more about screen readers through my apprenticeship, I've been following correct processes and designs for best practice with screen readers. However, as these read out the text on screen, I'm wondering if the text-to-speech I manually add onto all slides is still required? Part of me thinks it might be too much if both the audio on the course and the screen reader are reading the content out loud, but then we might have learners with dyslexia, for example, who might not require a screen reader but still prefer to have the text read aloud. How does everyone else navigate this? Do you use both or one or the other? Thank you!criteria for rise vs. storyline?
Hi all, I'm curious if anyone has established criteria that they use to evaluate whether Rise or Storyline is the best tool to build their requested training. Beyond the obvious regarding development and functionality abilities (e.g., rapid development vs. more customizable), does anyone have content-specific criteria that informs what tool they use to build their courses? I work in a compliance department so we've traditionally used Storyline for more 'gated' hand-held overviews of foundational concepts and Rise for content that iterates on those foundations. thanks!Search Bar Functionality (Articulate - storyline) (Keyword-Based Navigation)
Hello, I would like to ask if it is possible to implement a search functionality in Articulate 360 - Storyline that allows users to search content after completing a course. Specifically, I am looking for a feature where: A learner can enter keywords into a search bar, And the system will display or navigate them to the slides where those keywords appear. If this is not currently supported, I would like to ask: Is there an alternative way to create a searchable glossary or resource section? For example, can I add a “Resources” or “Glossary” area with keywords that link directly to specific slides within the course? Any guidance, best practices would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance! Kasia
