[ARCHIVED] Hyperlinks not opening from embedded slides

[klee17]

Hi, I have tried uploading my interactive google slides presentation into my Canvas home page. On my google slide, I have images with links to various things my students can use for virtual learning. I published my google slide to the web and copied the embed code onto my Canvas page. While I am in edit mode, the links all work and open in new tabs. But, when I push save, and try to click on a link...nothing happens. It makes me right click and push open in a tab and briefly an alert comes up that says redirecting and then the link opens. I teach younger students so I wanted it to be as easy as possible for them to open the links and not have to deal with right clicking. 

I taught summer school, and the interactive slide I have for summer is working where the links open right away. However, I have been trying to work on my fall page, and the links do not open. Any ideas on what is happening?

I am having a similar problem only with Microsoft Sway.

Hello,

I am having a similar problem with my virtual classroom page  which I first  created with Google Slides and I inserted a Video into the Google Slide.  I followed all the correct steps to  publish, and  copy and embed the  HTML Code into the Rich Content Editor on my Canvas Course's homepage.  The Google Slide appears and the video click works within my Sandbox, as well as when I go to Student View.  However, when I am in the actual  published student course and I had my administrator log in as a student into my grade 5 art course, he could not access the Video.  It is there, but instead of the click in Video play arrow, it states the video is not accessible to the students.

Why is this?

I am having the same problem. How can we get someone from CANVAS to reply with a solution? I'm going live Monday and need this fixed asap.

I have the same problem. I created a PP slideshow with a Table of Contents. The subjects under the TC have the hyperlinks to the specific slides. I saved it as a PP show and tt works perfectly by itself. But after I uploaded in Canvas, the links are not working anymore. You can move the cursor on the top of the subject and it seems alive and clickable, but it does not going to the linked slides. Anybody knows why and how to fix them? Thanks.
