I have a captivate  5 project running in four parts,

My client want to have 5 question at the end of each part and which you must complete to go on to the next and a review of the five question so i can have it in one complete file as its 300 slides odd.

I have daisy chained 4 part together and it works fine locally on my pc

but when i upload to my LMS (cornerstone)

It only runs the first part part then says complete on the reporting, and the other part won't run?

I've tried so far in the preferences

linked as project (project pref)

linked as File URL (project pref)

continue for slide open new  file (in course)

continue for slide open project (in course)

When i run a test project and link them they run fine until i zip them then they dont

What can i do to sort this out as i have user testing to do and go live on monday

Any ideas

It sounds like you're trying to create a Multi-SCO SCORM package with sequencing rules that your LMS will obey.

You say you've "zipped" the lessons to upload to your LMS.

  • What tool/s are you using to bundle all the lessons as a Multi-SCO and create the imsmanifest file with the sequencing rules?
  • Are you using the SCORM packaging app that comes with Captivate, or something else?
  • Or did you just zip the whole shebang with Winzip and expect it to work?

If you have Captivate 4 you would have the Multi-SCO packager by default.  In their wisdom, Adobe decided that Captivate 5 users would only get the packager if they also purchased the entire E-learning Suite 2.0.

Your other choice is to go on the net and Google for SCORM packaging tools.  I know there are several out there.

Your worst issue is probably going to be trying to sort out the sequencing rules.  For the kind of daisy chaining you want to happen, you'll probably need to go with SCORM 2004 but some LMSs don't handle this version of SCORM too well.

See if you can get by with just using SCORM 1.2 for a start and worry about the fancier stuff afterwards.
