Question

Return a user to a specific slide when a course is opened, when using resume data?

Hello,

Having to use resume data in a training project so certain conditions remain when they return for another session.  However, occasionally the quiz freezes for a small amount of users & when they return to the course they return to the quiz question and the course remains frozen.

Is it possible to have resume data active for the course but to always return a user to a specific slide when they (e.g. the Main Menu) when they re-open it in the LMS?

LMS = SCORM 1.2

Captivate = version 5.5

Reporting template = Default

I don't have V5.5 anymore, but you should be able to edit the function that sets the cmi.core.lesson_location to always input "Slide_1" or whatever your menu slide is.

Thanks!  That definitely points me in the right direction.

I have also looked through your page on controlling Captivate bookmarking at www.tlcmediadesign.com.  However, I believe this is for Captivate 6 onwards.  The Captivate 5.5 installation does not have the scormdriver.js file, unless I am missing something.

At this stage I am a little in the dark about what to change and where, so I need to spend some time investigating your advice a little further.

Hard to help here. Even when I had 5.5, I didn't use Captivates SCORM so I don't have any of the published files to look at.

You need to find "cmi.core.lesson_location" in your files. It may be multiple places, but that is the only way a bookmark can be written.

In current versions of Captivate, it uses that along with suspend data to determine which slide to return to.
