Introducing our improved editor UI. You can now style your track descriptions, note screens and assignments all with the click of a button. No more needing to check cheat sheets or be a markdown magician.

And the magic doesn’t stop there…

- The editor now comes with more space and the ability to write in full screen mode.

- And best of all, a preview that shows you what your content looks like for your end users. 

We hope you enjoy the new UI editor! As always, please let us know if you have any feedback or questions.

It's now possible to craft custom commands, hostnames and more in the challenge assignment's markdown. This can eliminate kludgy "replace " substitutions.

For more information, please refer to our docs.

What makes live events great? Magic happens when your attendees are super engaged and can connect with the host. That’s why we’re launching Live Events to make your events more impactful for your business.

Many of you already use Instruqt for training. With this new capability, we’re taking it a step further - by enabling you to monitor progress and support attendees in real time.

Highlights of the Live Event dashboard:   

• Manage events from start to finish
• Follow how the group and each attendee are doing at a glance
• Over-the-shoulder access (inspect) lets you troubleshoot attendees when they need some extra TLC  

Why you’ll love it

• Engage and support your attendees in real-time at any distance
• Set attendees up for success with the guidance they need
• Keep your workshops fun and focused

Get comfortable with Live Events, here’s how to create your first event!

Got questions or feedback? We love to hear from you.

Are you tired of your users getting to the end of an embedded track and then not knowing what to do next?

Well no more. Now you can add a custom button to the last screen of your embedded tracks to redirect a user wherever you want them to go.

Here’s how:

• Head to your tracks details and select the embedding option on the right hand side.
• Now select the “Add custom button” option.
• Give your button some copy so users know where it will take them.
• Then add your url.
• Select how you want the link to open
• Your embed and kiosk embed snippets will be updated automatically. Copy the new code and embed to your hearts content.

This improvement also contains:

• The progress section is now available on the finish screen
• The restart button is now located in the progress section

Watch this space

We plan to expand on this topic and bring you greater controls on how you customise your tracks embed and non embed. So share any feedback or questions you have and happy creating!

Have you ever wanted to skip the last challenge?

It's possible! 

The“Skip” button is now available on all challenges, including the last one. You can find this button near the “Check” or “Next” in the track.

Hi everyone!

We're excited to announce a new feature coming to Instruqt Labs: Progress Indication!

This feature will help to see the progress within a track, and also provide the ability to restart the track when embedded.

We hope this will help learners stay motivated and on track with their journey!

As always, let us know if you have any questions or feedback.

Happy learning!

We've been working to smoothen the experience for learners following a Track Invite link. This will help learners to find and consume your content more effectively. Improvements include a fully branded user journey, tracks appearing in the order selected, and more. 

Here's what's new in detail:

• Branded journey - Learners will now face your brand, as defined in the team banner on your content page, more frequently throughout the flow, resulting in more trust and less confusion.
• Add context - You can now set a public facing title and description for each invite. These changes will help you provide more context and guidance to learners. Note: existing invites without these fields will use a generic fallback.
• Set Track order - Tracks are now presented to learners in the same order as selected during invite creation.
• Cohesive experience - Tracks in the Study Room are now grouped by invite using branded cards with a title and (optional) description. This will make it easier for learners to find and consume your content more effectively.

Want to experience the new Study Room as a learner? Follow this demo invite link.

Action required? No, but recommended:

Although not required, we recommend doing the following so learners can fully benefit from these changes:

• Review your team branding on your Content page to ensure invitees see your correct logo and background image or colour.
• Set a public title and (optional) description for your existing invites.
• Review the track order in your existing invites to ensure they are shown in your desired order to future invitees, if that is important to you.

Got questions? Feel free to reach out via email our Slack.

We planned some changes to the wording on Instruqt based on feedback from our users. The messaging of the track and challenge completion will be updated.

We hope that these changes will help to clear up any confusion and make the user experience more enjoyable. Thanks for your feedback, and keep it coming!

Today marks a milestone for Instruqt with the launch of a brand new team page and navigation. We’ve talked with a lot of different customers, and we feel that these changes will help you find, manage and share your content more effectively.

Here’s what has changed:

• a new team page offering improved displaying and filtering capabilities (this replaces your old team page and Creator Studio)
• a new sidebar navigation optimised for creating and sharing content
• a new look and feel as you might have noticed already :)

Next to that, we’ve also simplified  content sharing to give you more control over who can access your content. As of today, the only way to share your track, is through inviting or embedding. As a result, please keep in mind:

• learners will no longer be able to access your tracks through public urls such as https://play.instruqt.com/TEAMSLUG/TRACKSLUG (please make sure you replace these with an embed or invite)
• learners will no longer be able to access your old team page (please make sure to remove any links pointing to https://play.instruqt.com/TEAMSLUG on your own channels)
• we’ve removed the (confusing) private and published visibility toggles on the track pages and are dropping support in the CLI and yaml files soon. Our documentation is already updated to reflect these changes.

If you have any questions or feedback, please reach out to us. We’d love to hear from you.
