In Captivate 2017, when the student reviews the course is there a way for the knowledge checks and quizzes to be skipped? I have set-up a TOC but it will not let the student click on a topic that is after a knowledge check. If they choose to go through the course again, they have to stop and take the quiz. Thanks in advance for your help.

    There is a big difference between KC slides and normal quiz slides as you can read here:

    For the quiz slides it would be pretty easy to skip them during Review mode because there is a system variable cpInReviewMode. However I'm not sure that you mean that mode at all, because terminology is always a big problem on this forum. Can you explain?

    Hey Lieve,

    Just thinking out loud after seeing your reply . . . is there a variable to indicate that the quiz was already taken? If so, then an action just before the quiz slide to navigate to whichever slide based on whether or not the quiz was completed.  Just wondering out loud.

    I was looking for Review, because that is the word used in the question. But as I pointed out already, terminology is often misused in questions.

    There is a system variable cpQuizInfoAttempts that is incremented immediately after the score slide is reached, when the next attempt is started. However you have to be careful as long as the Quiz work flow is not ended, to remain in the Quiz scope. Knowledge check slides are not considered part of the Quiz. Checking if you are in the Quiz scope can be done with another system variable. Complete list for Quizzing category here:
