Course SCORM File Replacement + Publish Button is not showing for active users

Hey everyone! For one of our SCORM file-based courses, we noticed an error, where the wrong SCORM file from the CAM was selected for a Page. To fix this issue, we replaced the wrong SCORM file with the correct SCORM file using the red Replace File button and selecting the appropriate file from the CAM dropdown menu. Once this change was made, we clicked on the green publish button. As it is for any changes made in the Question Library, I thought this change would appear automatically for any users that were currently enrolled in the course. However, that was not the case as the current user still had the previously incorrect SCORM file showing in that course despite the replacement.Is this standard when it comes to the Replace File button, so the change is only visible to future users? I thought clicking the Publish button made any updates visible to ALL users (current and future).

Course Version for SCORM Activity

On a learner’s account from a managerial point of view, I’m under the Engagement tab and looking at the learner’s SCORM activity to decipher an issue. Can anyone confirm if the Course Version column relates to the version of the SCORM file within the CAM? In the screenshot I attached, a lot of the SCORM Activity has 1 for the Course Version, but all of those SCORM files have been updated in the CAM more than just one time, so they should be showing 2 or 3 like the one with 5 shows, right?

programmatically create a course?

Hi,Has anyone managed to programmatically create a course?Looking through the API documentation, I could not see any endpoints to ‘create’ content. Our Instructional Designers create content in Google Slides. Which can be exported to SVG file format.The idea was to prepare a Google Colab that would export the Google Slides to SVG, prepare a SVG to Course mapping JSON file. (so we know which SVG goes to which section, lesson and page) Then create the Course Group, Course, Section, Lesson, Page(s).We could go further to add mp3 audio to the Page via one of the TTS services.However the idea seems to be dead in the water right now. :noo: :sad: ThanksDanny

Interactive Courses

Hi All,Curious regarding your content you are creating for your learners. Does anyone who may have training courses on their product, do you make these courses interactive? Meaning the learner “performs the task” within your course as if they were doing so within the application or platform? If so, how are you managing this?We recently received some feedback that our learners would like hands-on, pretending to do the task. Any information or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!Courtney

Automatically assigned content

Hi, Does anyone currently use the system to enroll learners into content by tenure or hire date? We’re looking to assign content to learners 30 days after they have been hired. Any ideas on how your team is currently doing something similar?

Managing entry to webinars

Hello TI Community!I have a question related to webinar integrations.We plan to make use of various TI webinar integrations (primarily Zoom, Adobe Connect and hopefully MS Teams).  One thing we are struggling with is around how to prevent the webinar links from being shared beyond our approved attendees.   When someone registers and receives the event confirmation/ calendar link email from TI they contain direct links to the webinar room and theoretically these could be forwarded to other people (who aren’t approved/registered users) which would enable them to gain access to the session. Sometimes we have 500+ attendees so we can’t necessarily implement the features some webinar platforms have where you can place all attendees in a waiting room and admit them manually.Has anyone identified any workable options to manage this?Many thanks,Caroline @ Mastercard Academy

Learner Notification for Content/Learning Path

When setting up a learner notification using the type “Content/Learning Path(s)” Notification type -I want all content included from 1 specific Content Type (Online courses) - is there any way to choose all of those courses easily?Currently when we click “all content” - it is including our ILT (in-person event) learners as well, and the emails that go to online course learners do not match what our in-person learners should be getting.I’m hoping that I’m missing something obvious - Thanks for any assistance!

Virtual Parking Lot

We need a "virtual parking lot" solution within a course. A place for learners to post questions/comments that is visible to the instructor and other learners. Needs to be in a prominent place, such as the Utilities menu on the left. Does anyone do something like this or have any ideas?(Note: We’ve considered using discussions but find that the placement isn’t prominent enough (either as a page in the course or at the bottom of the page...we really want something on the top and/or left side))TIA!

Looking for inspiration

Hey folks!I’m so curious to see and experience other instances of Thought Industries, and I bet a lot of you are too. If you have a publicly available site, with some free content, would you mind sharing a link? I’ll start: https://university.hyland.com/pages/nuxeo-catalog (you’ll need to sign up for a login) or https://university.hyland.com/support (no login needed)

Coupons for Learning Paths?

Is it possible to assign a coupon code to a learning path? I do not see it as an option under the enrollment » ecommerce tab like I do for VILT/ILT/Webinars/Course content types. If not, how do you discount a learning path for a customer? Global coupon codes will not work - because those apply to all content in your instance (unless I am missing where you can append a specific content item)? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Using / Integrating Google Text to Speech into Course pages?

Despite the Christmas Holidays, I never really switched off and have been thinking about how we can leverage TTS (Text To Speech) into our TI based Courses (Self-Paced).At low maturity level, I am thinking the team can separately from TI can prepare the SSML scripts offline and then post those to Google API to download the Audio Files, which we can upload to each page.At a more mature level, I am thinking we could have some API integration that posts the SSML from the TI page itself.

BOLD in Tables in Courses?

Good day all.  I have a support tix in right now but support is able to see my bold text in a table, within a course.  I cannot see the bold in Edit, Preview, or Released view.  Anyone ever tried to bold in a table in a course?  Thank you.

The value of suggesting product features and upvoting

I am curious to understand what value is placed on the product suggestion page, as it appears that some features which have been highly upvoted are not being taken into consideration. On the other hand, some features which have much lower vote count have been completed. While I understand that other factors may be at play when making decisions, I would be grateful if you could provide further clarity into this process.

Chat Feature

Hello, has anyone added a chat feature to their LMS? I am looking for a chat feature that can have the leaners continue their chat through each course in a learning path. Just curious if anyone has added something like this or if they have done any research. Thank you!

Panorama Learner Dashboard: Courses & Learning Paths

Hi All, Does anyone have any tips or tricks to help a Panorama Customer with easier navigation on their Learner Dashboard? We have created Learning Paths for the Learners. However, on the Learner’s Dashboard, they can see all of the individual courses that make up the Learning Paths. It is causing some confusion on what content they should be selecting / starting with. Any information or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Using Prerequisites

Hello,I am working on moving our professional certification pages into Ti. There is a hierarchy where some certifications require that you pass another one before being authorized to register. I have been planning to use the prerequisite feature for this. However, as I was setting up a proof of concept yesterday, I found that users can’t get to the details page at all if they don’t have the the prerequisite. I had expected that you could get to the details page but wouldn’t have the start button or something like that. This has thrown off my plan because I want everyone to be able to see the general information about the certification including the study resources, etc. I have some ideas about workarounds that I’m exploring now. But, has anyone here addressed something like this where you don’t want someone to actually have access to the content item without the prereq, but you do want to inform them of what to do to get the prereq?Thanks!!

Is there a way to remove the bookmark feature on courses? Our company uses SCORM and PPT files for courses, so the bookmark feature is not helpful to our learners. Is there a way to remove this feature from courses?

Try This To Keep Learners focused on the Sequence of a Learning Path

We love the Back to Learning Path link at top left of any learning path but my boss has asked if there is a way I can enforce or suggest the order that content should be completed.  I have added a “Next Item” button to the bottom of every article and course that is literally hard coded to the next item in sequence.  Here is that code if you are interested but please NOTE:  You will not want to release the content.  Just release the Learning Path.  If you release the content, it will have a next item button that is totally out of context outside the Learning Path.  Here is the Code.<p> </p><button onclick="window.location.href = 'https://sitetracker.thoughtindustries.com/learn/article/view-full-record-details';">Next Item</button>
