Course will not launch (pop-up blocked)

In order to launch courses, pop-ups must be allowed for Inspiredlms.com. In many cases, browsers will block pop-up windows by default.

If you've clicked launch and the course window will not display, this may be due to pop-up blockers on the web browser.

First and foremost, check the web address bar for an icon indicating that a pop-up has been blocked.
It may look something like this

Clicking the icon will provide options to allow the pop-up once, or to always allow pop-ups from the current site  (recommended option).

How to add exceptions for Pop-Up Blockers

If there was no  icon  on the address bar that allows you to make the exception, you can also follow the instructions for your browser to add Inspiredlms.com.

Alternatively, a user does have the option to add the LMS website to a list of exceptions for the Autoplay rule in their browser.

Chrome Autoplay Exceptions

Autoplay can be enabled for specific sites in Chrome on an individual user's machine by following the steps below.

Navigate to the menu button in the upper-right of the browser window. Usually this appears as 3 vertical dots.

From the menu select "Settings".

From the settings Page, scroll down to the bottom and click "Advanced"  to display more options.

In the advanced settings look for "Content Settings" click this option.

On the Content Settings Page click "Sound". 

On the sound settings Page, in the "Allow" section click the "Add" button.

This will let you input the URL for the LMS as an exception to the Autoplay rule, allowing this particular site to automatically play sound/videos on pages. Once you've input the URL, click "Add".
Then you are set. Now you may launch the course again.

Firefox Autoplay Exceptions

To enable autoplay for our courses in Firefox, click the blocked autoplay icon on the address bar. Choose "Allow Audio and Video".

Then close the course window and hit launch again for these changes to take effect.
