How to Publish a Storyline LMS File onto Your Intranet: A Step-by-Step Guide
Do you need to publish a Storyline file to your website or intranet.
Publishing a Storyline LMS file onto your intranet or website involves a few key steps: exporting the project, uploading it to your server, linking it, and ensuring it is responsive. Following this guide will help you smoothly transition your eLearning content, making it accessible and effective for all users.
Your elearn contractor would have provided you with a zip file containing the LMS version of the files.
Step 1: Upload files to your server
Access Your Server:
- Use an FTP client or a file manager provided by your hosting service to access your server.
Navigate to the Intranet Directory:
- Locate the directory on your server where you want to host your LMS files. Typically, this would be within a folder designated for intranet resources.
Upload the ZIP File:
- Upload the ZIP file.
Extract the ZIP File:
- Extract the contents of the ZIP file into the desired directory. This should create a folder containing all necessary files and subfolders.
Step 2: Link the course
Identify the URL
Once the files are extracted, note the URL path to the
index.html
file within the extracted folder. This URL will be used to access the course.
Embed using an iframe:
Embed the following iframe replacing the example url with your own.
<iframe src="http://MyServer.com/MyCourse/story.html" width="980" height="658"></iframe>
<iframe src="http://courses.captovate.com.au/mhtraining/howsyabucket/story.html" width="980" height="658"></iframe>
Step 3: Ensure responsiveness
Check Mobile Compatibility:
- Open the course URL on various devices (desktop, tablet, mobile) to ensure it displays correctly.
Use Responsive Design Tools:
- If your intranet supports responsive design frameworks (like Bootstrap), wrap your course URL in responsive containers to enhance compatibility.
Test Interactivity:
- Ensure all interactive elements (quizzes, drag-and-drop) function properly on different screen sizes. Adjust any Storyline settings if necessary.

Integrating high-quality voiceovers into your eLearning content is essential as it provides additional engagement, particularly for auditory learners, and ensures your outputs conform to accessibility guidelines. At Captovate, we use Microsoft Azure because it offers a powerful, secure, and efficient platform for accessing and utilising voiceovers. By leveraging Azure's advanced AI capabilities, you can create natural and expressive voiceovers that enhance your content's appeal. Why Choose Microsoft Azure for Voiceovers? Enhanced Security Microsoft Azure prioritises the security of your data. With robust encryption protocols, multi-factor authentication, and compliance with international security standards, Azure ensures that your voiceover projects and sensitive information are protected against unauthorised access and cyber threats. If you work for a government agency, this helps ensure you conform to your internal cybersecurity requirements (although it is important to check with them). Save Output Saving voiceover outputs using Microsoft Azure is straightforward and secure. After generating the voiceover using Azure's Text-to-Speech service, you can download the file directly to your computer in formats like MP3 or WAV. This makes it easier for you to edit content if something changes. Customise Pronunciations Customising pronunciations using phonetic codes in Microsoft Azure involves using the Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) to define how specific words or phrases should be pronounced. By embedding phonetic codes within your text input, you can control the pronunciation precisely. For example, using the ` ` tag with the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) or custom phonetic alphabets within SSML, you can specify the desired pronunciation for each word, ensuring accuracy and clarity in the generated voiceover. This flexibility allows for tailored speech outputs that match regional accents, technical jargon, or specific name pronunciations. Insider knowledge: For some reason, voiceover software has issues with pronouncing words ending in "ies," such as "policies." This customisation allows us to control the output. We have created a lexicon for challenging words. Cutting-Edge AI Technology Azure's AI-powered text-to-speech capabilities deliver natural and expressive voiceovers, enabling you to create more immersive and engaging content. With a wide range of voices and languages, you can tailor your voiceovers to match your project's specific requirements. Cost-Effective Azure's pay-as-you-go pricing model ensures that you only pay for what you use, making it a cost-effective solution for businesses of all sizes.

Are you considering the development of eLearning modules? If so, one of the first questions on your mind is likely to be:
We recognise that they key to success is to ensure learning modules are ‘designed to be interactive and engaging’. As innovation gurus, Captovate has a number of innovative suggestions for increasing efficiency and effectiveness. While not delivered via the LMS, they do serve to create a ‘life long learning model’ - which sees learning go beyond the classroom and fit into various dimensions of a person's whole life.
We aspire to be the best we can be through innovation, technology and creative
