HTML Learning Objects in a course

How can I create HTML learning objects which will go to the next HTML Learning object in the course?
They only have a <<--Back link.
Would like a Next-->> link to the next HTML learning object.

Thanks

Hi Todd,

welcome to the forum!

The <<- Back button actually doesn't take you to the previous LO, it takes you back to the list of materials.

What we are actually planning to do for next versions is to have a page for the list of LO, with a "youtube-like" box in the middle and a list of the other LO's below it. The list would be browsable back and forward, so that you can go to the LO you wish to see without going back to a tree-like list.

Of course, if we quickly get a paid project to do that it, things will be fast, while doing it on our own investment would take much more time. It is in our roadmap, but not in the next few months.

Hello Max,

Thanks for the welcome.

I've found a temporary workaround which is simply to create a URL link as "Next-->"
to
https://{your FormaLMS URL}/appLms/index.php?modname=organization&op=custom_playitem&id_item=2
(Or whatever that item number may be)

Cheers

Yes, it's a good idea. It's a trick I sometimes use to make users go to a specific menu item (forum, announcements, etc..). Not ideal, but functional
