Hi all!

We need to have the functionality of "linking SCORMs" in Totara. If a SCORM package is used several times in different activities/courses and we update the SCORM in one place, Totara will automatically update all other activities/courses which contain this updated SCORM package as well.

Our client used to have this functionality in the previous LMS and would also like to have it in Totara.

Does anyone have a suggestion on how to do that?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Best regards,

Eva

  9. Set the Auto-update frequency setting to Every day (to check overnight if a package update is required) or Every time it’s used (to check if a new package when a user enters the SCORM).
  10. Click Save and display 
  11. Open the SCORM activity and test that it works.
