Hyperlinks through share pods

[confused.com!]

Hi,

I am wondering if there is a way to have  hyperlink on an image in a share pod rather than having to have the file pod open? I can get a hyperlink to work through an image but as soon as this is shared as a document in a share pod, the link stops working?

Any ideas?

Thanks

You can create a link in a PowerPoint slide, and share that slide in a share pod.  It works quite well.

Thanks Chris, I have tried this but only have Microsoft powerpoint and the hyperlink seems to stop working when it is imported into adobe connect. Do I have to be creating the powerpoints on adobe presenter for this to work?

Take a look at the page I created to have people do some self-troubleshooting.  The slidedeck (share pod) to the upper left uses a series of hyperlinks to other slides in the same deck, as well as to YouTube videos.

I'm not sure why yours wouldn't work.  Are you using the "Link" feature of PowerPoint?

Thanks for your help Chris. I have managed to solve the issue now. The links work if I download the content to adobe account and play through there but would not work if it was connected from Browsing the computer. I'm not sure why this is but it has solved the problem. 

Thanks again
