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!

ILT - Add Virtual Meeting Page Type?

Is it possible to upload a virtual meeting page type to an ILT?We have to individually create the pre and post content for each VILT associated with our certification courses since you cannot copy a VILT.I saw you can copy and ILT though…. and if we could add a virtual meeting page time (and import the meeting from Zoom) - this will solve all my problems. Sessions will not work with our use case in VILTs…Any suggestions or best practices here?

Content modification History

Hello,I am reviewing some content (webinars, courses..) and I would like to see the modification history with dates and names. Does anyone know where I can see this? I could not find anything in the courses themselves, and I tried to report but the “author” field did not give me any result.I shoudl be able to go into a course and have a section where I can see when it was created, by whom and the history of all the changes that happened after that with the names.Anyone has any idea where I can see that?

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!

How to navigate Thought Industries training course.

 Do any of you already have a course you have developed for YOUR Learners when using your LMS powered by TI?  Any ideas or examples you can share?  We are looking to create something to explain how to navigate courses, learning paths, and the dashboard, etc.

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.

Quiz - No need for Passing Percentage to show Pass/Fail message

In order to provide a message to learners after they have completed a quiz page, you have to provide a passing mark.Quizzes are also used for knowledge attainment, not necessarily knowledge retention. Please provide the option of showing a (concluding) message without the learners having to pass/fail a quiz.Setting the passing rate to 1% for a message to show is lowkey insulting to the learners. EDIT: THIS WAS MEANT TO BE IN “SUGGESTIONS”. I accidentally started a convo & now i have no way to delete this. Please add this capability as well jc.

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!

How can users view wrong answers on a test?

Is it possible for learners to see their incorrect answers on a test page type? I often hear from users when they take a test that they passed the exam but missed 3 answers and want to know what the correct answers are to those questions. I haven’t found a way to do this in settings or advanced settings of the Test page type.

Quiz Progress/Loading Issues

Hi everyone! I’m reaching out to see if anyone else is having this issue.We are receiving frequent complaints/issues from our users on their quiz taking experience. For many of our users, their quizzes are either freezing up on them or they are receiving pop-up error messages that require them to restart their quiz. I recognize that this is often a browser/Wi-Fi/software issue, but it is happening to users who are using updated browsers and strong Wi-Fi connections.Our quizzes are built through Ti. They range from 10 questions to 100 questions based on the course. All quizzes have 5 attempts and specific time limits. Each time the user has to restart their quiz, that wastes one of their quiz attempts, which is why we receive emails from them, so we can forgive those wasted attempts.Overall, is anyone else facing a similar issue with their users and course quizzes? I have submitted a help ticket to Ti on the topic, but does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix the issue?

Polling and Assessment (Like Poll Everywhere)

Use Case:We have a need to run anonymous aggregate polls with participants, like Poll Everywhere, so that we can display the results in real-time for the participants and discuss the results. We also need to collect the individual responses so that we can review them for further assessment and follow-up as needed. We would like the results, or at least scores, for the participants to be collected and maintained in TI for review and reporting.The survey content type doesn’t really meet the needs stated. Does anyone have any experience with something that works with TI and meets the needs noted?  Perhaps Alchemer does and is the only option for integration that will send user response data back to TI.

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!!

Remove Bookmark Feature

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>

Unlocking for editing by children?

What does this advanced option do on a page? Does it allow you to update one page and that update applies to all pages that are an exact copy of the original page? I can’t find any documentation on it other than documents that just say that you can select it? What is it and how does it work?
