Using Captivate 2019. Can you change the name of index.html in the publishing or export options? So it would be Training.html or something similar? Thanks!

A published Captivate course without Reporting will always have the index.html file as start file, same as for a website. I asked ChatGPT for a possible workflow:

Yes, you can change the name of ‘index.html’ and have the website launch from the changed name. Here are the steps to do so:

1. Rename the file: Navigate to the directory where the file is located and rename the file to the desired name. For example, if you want to rename ‘index.html’ to ‘home.html’, right-click on the file and select ‘Rename’. Type in ‘home.html’ and press ‘Enter’ ¹.

2. Update the link: If you have linked to the ‘index.html’ file from other pages on your website, you will need to update the links to point to the new file name. For example, if you have a link to ‘index.html’ in your navigation menu, you will need to update the...¹.

3. Update the server configuration: If you are using a web server to host your website, you may need to update the server configuration to ensure that the new file name is used as the default page. For example, if you are using Apache, you can use the ‘DirectoryIndex’ directive in your ‘.htaccess’ file to specify the new default page. Add the following line to your ‘.htaccess’ file: DirectoryIndex home.html ¹.

My next question was if it is also possible with JS, because the output folder will have a JS file:

If you want to change the title of your webpage dynamically, you can use JavaScript to do so. Here is an example of how to change the title of a webpage using Javascript:

JavaScriptAI-generated code. Review and use carefully. More info on FAQ.

document.title = "New Title";

This will change the title of the webpage to “New Title”. You can add this code to your HTML or JS file to change the title dynamically
