Launch guide from resource center module click

Avatar

Hi there, I want a user to be able to click a module in the resource center that automatically triggers a guide. So, rather than clicking into the module and seeing a list of guides to select, I want a specific guide to launch upon selecting the module itself. Has anyone achieved this with a custom module?

Cheers.

    Hey Dan Gleason, you might be able to do this by combining these two steps:

    1. Getting the guide permalink.

    2. Linking an external site as a separate resource center module.

    Let us know if you do try it, would love to see if it worked for you!

    Thanks Angus! I ended up getting it to work by adding the Pendo ID of the resource center element to the CSS open rule on the guide. Success!

    Dan Gleason would you share your work please? I don't understand what you mean by 'adding the Pendo ID of the resource center element to the CSS open rule on the guide'. I have my Resource Center CSS ID Selector already in hand. And the Guide permalink.

    Hey brandon, sure. 

    1. Create a Resource Center module using the Custom Code option (but don't add any custom code)
    2. Get the CSS ID for that specific module, not the RC as a whole
    3. Follow the steps here to tell the guide to trigger when that CSS ID is clicked
