Continuing problems with a Cascade story map. Images show as inaccessible on the My Stories dashboard (usually 2), and then see 20+ marked as not accessible on the map Health Report. After uploading one of those this morning, all warnings disappeared on both reviews. But, when returning to the story map 2 hours later, even more images were marked as not accessible. I have no problem viewing the story map embedded on our agency website, Conserving Georgia's Nongame Wildlife: 2016 | Georgia DNR - Wildlife Resources Division. I'm curious if there's truly a problem or ...? Welcome thoughts on what may be going on. This a 2-month-old story map and I really don't want to reload all marked photos, re-positioning some of them, if there's no need to.

Thanks, Owen. And great to hear on the soon-coming fix! I'll check afterward and re-upload where needed.

Thanks, Owen. I've made this public at http://arcg.is/2hekwy0. It doesn't appear the issues are actually blocking the images from appearing, though it could be affecting their load time(?). In answer to your questions, the image issue cropped up almost from the start, before others began viewing the map. I haven't noticed a pattern in saving/losing. For instance, yesterday all appeared fine/green. Today, at last check, all but two are flagged.

I have a draft Cascade story map in which images are uploading correctly (dropped into builder) but many are later showing up as inaccessible (red error warning) during a story map check. I've reuploaded some; they view as OK (green); then later show as red. The number of inaccessible images seems to grow, too, as the story map is viewed by proofers. Thoughts on a fix?

New to the Cascade maps and wondering: Is there a consensus or best-practices tip on whether to use basic or H2 for narrative text? (H2 looks big but reads easy on a phone.) Video titles linked from YouTube are showing. Is there a way to hide the title when a video is used in, say, the Cover template?

Very helpful info and opinion. Thanks!

In a previous map I combined two templates (Map Series and Map Tours) for one story map that fit our annual report display needs. Has anyone tried this with Cascade? Not sure which direction we'll go yet, but curious.

Thanks, all.

You were right. Shared individual story map tours. All is well. Thanks again.

Thanks! I was assuming that since the maps are part of the apps option, they would be public. But I'll check. Hopefully, that's it.

Recently created a story map using a map series tabbed with four individual map tours, each embedded as a tab in the series. But, while the story map works in preview, once made live each of the embedded tours fails to load when others try to view it on Chrome or Firefox. I'm no map maker or IT person. The tour is built mostly with images we've posted to our agency's flickr site, and using base maps provided through the map tours app. Any insight in what may be hanging this up? Thanks! The tour is at http://arcg.is/1PEqjaQ
