How to Use Continue Blocks

A continue block pauses navigation, hiding everything below it until the learner clicks a button. Add a completion requirement, and the button stays locked until the interactions above are complete. It's a simple way to pace your lessons and make sure nothing important is skipped.

Add a continue block

  1. Edit a lesson in your course.
  2. Hover over the space between two blocks and click the insert icon that appears.
  3. Select Continue from the block library.

Navigation now pauses at the button, and a click reveals the rest of the lesson.

Choose a behaviour and modify button text

To require more than a click, select the continue block, open its settings, and choose a Completion type:

  • None: learners click the button to continue. This is the default.
  • Complete the block above: learners must finish the interaction directly above before the button unlocks.
  • Complete all blocks above: learners must finish every interaction above the button. If an earlier continue block exists, only the interactions between the two are required.

The locked button appears dimmed, showing a lock icon and a short message. Set the message in the Hint text field and the button text in the Label field.

Supported blocks

These are the blocks you can require, and what it takes to complete each one:

BlockInteraction
AccordionOpen every item
Tabs, circle tabs, and tabs with imagesView every tab
Carousel tabs and slidersView every slide
Labeled graphicsOpen every marker
ProcessView every step
FlashcardsFlip every card
Sorting activitySort every card
Knowledge checksSubmit an answer
Interactive videoAnswer every question and watch to the end
AudioListen to the end (disable forward seeking so that learners can't scrub through the audio)

Buttons and attachments are interactive, but they can't be required.

Modify block settings

Continue buttons follow your brand colour by default. To change the look, open the block's settings: choose a Style (solid, outline, or ghost) or set your own Text colour and Background colour.

Accessibility

A locked button remains keyboard focusable, and screen readers announce the hint text in place of the label, so every learner knows what's left to do. If you choose custom colours, verify that the contrast between the button text and its background conforms to accessibility guidelines.
