Hi Rupert, Thanks for the reply. I'm trying to figure out how to populate my web map/shortlist story map with dynamic data. I have these questions to start with. 1) Can data driven text be added to the Shortlist Story Map? I see the blog post about adding Data Driven Text with the Map Journal example but was wondering if the methods apply to the other templates? 2) Are there map services that be published to our GIS Server from a SQL database so the data can be dynamic? If so what type of services are these and do you need to publish with special settings to the service or on the SQL database administration? I'm thinking in ArcMap you can have a query layer that is dynamic with the database connection but are there web services that are similar? 3) Do you know if with ArcGIS API for python if there are scripts for checking url links within story maps to show all the urls and if some are broken? I'm trying to figure out maintenance and automating some of these tasks for the Story Maps especially since they are url heavy. Thanks in advance!!! Kathy ... View more

Hi Raúl Jiménez Ortega!, Thanks so much for all your help with the changes to the code to better track the navigation in Google Analytics. I'm going to try and make these changes as you suggested and use your new deployable version. Hopefully I can do this I'm not very savy with javascript but you've given awesome directions! This is probably getting too much into the weeds but are the individual locations within a tab referenced similar to the 'story-tab-navigation' you've added or would that amount to specifying each location somehow? I just thought I would ask while I had your ear. Thanks so much for such prompt response and Mark Cooney your help also!!  Kathy ... View more

Hi raul.jimenezesri-es-esridist‌, We downloaded the 'ready-to-deploy' app and have added a splash page and customized the header and have that code hosted on our department server. Would I be able to customize this code or would it have to be the full source code from GitHub? As it works right now we just have the .html file linked with the appid on ArcGIS Online. I so appreciate your willingness to help with this! Thanks, Kathy ... View more

Thanks Rupert for the reply and information. Our Department internet is set up to actually block content from sites like Flickr and Google Plus among other photo sites so this isn't an option for us. Thanks for the information though! ... View more

Well I see what you mean and because in this story map folks are more likely to type in rivers, bays and not precise locations do you think it would be better to disable the find feature? ... View more

I also just tried it in Google Maps and it zoomed right in to the correct location for "Cowee Creek". I type in "Cowee Creek"....then it shows "Cowee Creek, Juneau, AK" and zooms right in? ... View more

I'm glad there seems to be a reason behind it but it appears the Geocoder does find because it first shows up as "Cowee Creek, AK USA" and then it adds that gray dot in the correct location for Cowee Creek but it zooms way out. By adding the gray dot, hasn't the geocoder found it? ... View more
