@HaileyWright1 -- Sorry for not following up on this. They do have it on their radar, but no specific roadmap date (at least when I chatted with them a few months ago). I would suggest adding an idea to the Instant Apps Ideas Board so they can track it better on their end. ... View more

@Mark__Empey - I guess a few things to consider... For the swipe - is this comparison required as a web map? If there isn't a need to zoom in or click on pop-ups, the visual difference in boundaries could be shown just as effectively with an image swipe (just take screenshots of your maps and upload them). Could the maps in slide 1 and 3 be combined into a single map with single layers that include data for both sites? That might save on some resources since you wouldn't have to load two different web maps across the first part of the sidecar ... View more

Well, I'm happy there isn't a bug that caused this, but I'm still sad to hear about your map being deleted. 😞 In case you weren't aware, you can enable delete protection on high-value items (stories, maps, layers, etc.). For more information, see How to prevent accidental deletion (esri.com). Hope this might be helpful in the future! ... View more

@TimMcGrath -- Thanks for reporting your issue and I'm sorry you are seeing an issue with your story. The web map that doesn't appear to be loading has an id of 4c4ca999fba64ca6b7f75d2690e9b290. When I search ArcGIS Online, I cannot find a web map with that ID, so this indicates that map is not shared publicly or has been deleted. As a next step I'd recommend that you look into the status of that web map. ... View more

@SaraJL - Thanks for posting this idea! Could you also please share a link or screenshot of an example dashboard where this is configured and/or a link to the documentation that explains this capability? (I searched the dashboard doc for "highlight feature" and I didn't find anything specifically called that, so I'm not quite sure what functionality or widget you're referring to, sorry!) If you could also provide information and perhaps some examples about how this feature would enhance your storytelling that would be helpful for us to better understand how you'd use this and what value it would bring to your audience. ...

This feature is currently in development and expected to be released sometime in Q2 of 2024. ... View more

Oh! I see that @KathrynHailes did create a new idea already. Anyone interested in showing pop-ups as part of a map action can follow/vote for this idea: Display map pop-up when map action button clicked - Esri Community ... View more

This ability to set the pop-up display to "docked" was added to ArcGIS StoryMaps in February 2024. For more information and a video of how to use this feature see What’s new in ArcGIS StoryMaps (February 2024) (esri.com). ... View more

@HimanshuMistry -- In October 2023, the ability was added to easily insert a link to another section of a story. Please see these blog posts for more information and a video of this capability. What’s new in ArcGIS StoryMaps (October 2023) (esri.com) Add another dimension to your stories with heading links (esri.com) I'm going to mark this idea as IMPLEMENTED since the original request has been addressed. Please submit new ideas if there are other new capabilities you'd like to see added to map actions. ... View more

Hello! This thread has collected additional ideas beyond the initial one that was posted. As mentioned in the ArcGIS Ideas Submission Guidelines, it's best to have "one submission = one idea" so community members understand what they are voting for and development teams can clearly differentiate specific features and enhancements. If would be great if one of the subsequent commenters (@HelenCooper, @tt5vw1, @SaraJL, @KathrynHailes) could please create a separate idea for including the ability to show a pop-up when a map action is triggered so that can be tracked separately. (Also...good news -- that feature is in development!). ... View more

@DfIRivers -- Yesterday's planned release was delayed until tonight (our release notes will be updated to reflect this tomorrow), so this hasn't been fixed just yet. However, when you try this again tomorrow, be sure to not use a short URL in your iframe. Short URLs are for conveniently sharing a link with someone else, but shouldn't be used when providing a URL for an embed or in HTML code. Since a short URL needs to be resolved into its full form, you may experience unexpected results. Be sure to always use the full URL in these cases.   ... View more

@NikhilLalwani -- I'm sorry you are experiencing this issue with your StoryMap. Were you changing the sharing from the Sharing settings option or were you republishing? I was going to suggest that you unpublish and republish the story to see if that addresses the issue. If that doesn't work, we do have a fix coming for an issue with subscription/premium content layers in an update tomorrow evening. If the steps above don't work now, please try them again Thurs morning and let us know if you are still seeing the issue. ... View more
