Hi Karen, Sorry for the delay in responding. There is Story Maps place on GeoNet; please use that for Story Map-related questions next time. Can you make your story map public and post or private message me a link to it so I can take a look? Sometimes the situation you described can be due to a mixed-content issue when you mix HTTP and HTTPS content. If you are accessing your story map over HTTPS (whether or not your organizational settings require it or not) make sure you use an HTTPS URL for any web page that you add to your Map Journal. You can usually see this if you open the browser dev tools and look for mixed content errors. Owen ... View more

Hi Lars, Sorry for the delay in responding. There is Story Maps place on GeoNet; please use that for Story Map-related questions next time. Yes, what you are asking for is possible. As long as your portal is publicly accessible (outside your firewall) and the web scene is shared with Everyone it can be referenced in a public or private story map published by any organization. Please see these two blog posts for instructions: Using 3D web scenes in Story Maps | ArcGIS Blog Using 3D web scenes in Story Maps redux | ArcGIS Blog Owen P.S. I can't remember what version of Portal started supporting the tip to reference a specific slide mentioned in the second post. If it's not supported at 10.3.1 it should be in 10.4 when that is released. ... View more

Hi Pamela, Sorry for the delay in responding. There is Story Maps place on GeoNet; please use that for Story Map-related questions next time. I'm not sure why the Facebook photos are breaking. If you are still having this issue are you able to post or private message me links to your public story map and the Facebook page you are linking to so I can take a look? As far as an alternate location for images, Flickr and Picasa work very well as dedicated cloud photo storage solutions. You can also put photos on your own web server or cloud file storage account (like Dropbox, Box, OneDrive, Amazon S3, GoogleDrive, etc.) as long as you can get a persistent public URL to reference each image.

Hi Jay, Sorry for the delay in responding. There is a Story Maps place on GeoNet; please use that for Story Map-related questions next time. What you are asking for is not currently supported in the standard Map Series app; however, we are considering adding main stage actions (like Map Journal has) to Map Series in a future release. That would enable you to create links to map locations. Owen ... View more

Razvan -- We are still hoping to have the initial release of Crowdsource ready to release in Feb, but there is a possibility we could push to the beginning of June. If the release is in June we may have a downloadable version available that you will be able to get earlier than that if you are able to host apps on your own. We'll post info about that on GeoNet, if needed. Owen ... View more

Hi C.E., Sorry you are having trouble. I just tested this workflow and it seems to work for me and I don't believe we were ever able to reproduce the original issue reported above. Could you please post or message me a link to your web map so I can take a look and try to reproduce this with your map? When you said "hosted (my server) feature service" do you mean that you are trying to use a tour layer that is hosted on your own ArcGIS Server machine? Owen ... View more

Hi Shauna-Rae, The version of Story Map Basic that is currently included with Portal for ArcGIS 10.3.1 and earlier doesn't have the ability to add a logo in the header. However, the latest version released on ArcGIS Online in November 2015 does have this ability, and that version of the Basic app will be included in Portal for ArcGIS 10.4. If you don't want to wait for 10.4, you can download the latest version of the Basic app from GitHub and install it on your Portal.

Hi Karen, I'm not sure which app you are using for your story map, but if you are using Map Series it does currently have the ability to add an address finder. It's in Settings under Map options. Owen ... View more

Hi Tyjen - sorry you hare having trouble embedding your story map. Could you post the URL here (or private message it to me) so I can take a look? It's hard to tell what is going on from the screenshot. Is there anything else on this page or are you just trying to get a full page iframe with your story map? Owen ... View more
