Hi @BeccaBoyd - Thanks for posting your questions: 1) PDFs hosted on the web must have the correct security headers in order to be embedded in a StoryMap. You can find the details of what is required here: Frequently asked questions | ArcGIS StoryMaps Help. If you need a quick solution you can upload the PDF as an item in your ArcGIS content, share it publicly, copy the URL from the right sidebar on the item page, and use that to embed the PDF in your story. 2) As you navigate through a sidecar, the content for each slide scrolls into the same area as the previous slide, so you aren't able change the size or position of individual slides. If you want a different panel size for consecutive slides, you can try breaking the sidecar up into multiple, consecutive sidecar blocks, each with a different panel size. The easiest way to do this is to duplicate the sidecar and then remove the slides you don't need in each one.

@SJ_COV > My guess is that this has something to do with the StoryMap being set up in Portal Correct! I think the information below should be helpful... > It seems like there are several differences including fewer Cover layouts and less Media options. ArcGIS Enterprise is a software product that is installed and maintained by your organization's IT department, so it's important to understand which version you are using to know which features may or may not be available. You can review the major differences in each version of ArcGIS StoryMaps using these documentation topics: ArcGIS StoryMaps on ArcGIS Enterprise feature comparison | ArcGIS StoryMaps Help What's new in ArcGIS StoryMaps on ArcGIS Enterprise | ArcGIS StoryMaps Help > when I check the Video media option, there is no option to post a Link like there is in AGOL. The ability to use linked media in ArcGIS StoryMaps on ArcGIS Enterprise must be enabled by your enterprise portal administrator. For more information see Organization settings | ArcGIS StoryMaps Help.

@TerezieVaňková - We took a look, but it's not immediately apparent what's going on and we can't reproduce this issue with other stories. Please contact Esri Technical Support and they can help you troubleshoot further.

Charts are still relatively new, so they remain focused on simple scenarios and small datasets. But we are looking at ways to expand this feature in the future, which may include bringing in charts you've already created in the map viewer (be sure to vote for this idea if you're interested in that) or possibly creating new charts in the story builder from feature layers.

@SteveCole - Thank you for the feedback. I'm sorry you had such trouble tracking this information down. As it happens, we are currently in the middle of a complete re-write of our documentation. We've already released much of this work (you can read more about it here), and the next batch of updates to go out will be the topics covering each content block. I've attached a screenshot of a portion of the new topic on charts running on our internal dev system. As you can see, we plan to add information about how many rows and columns of data are supported (see orange box), in addition to a lot of other information about charts and all the other types of content blocks. This should be released sometime in the next few weeks. I'm sorry this info wasn't available when you were looking for it, but we are working to improve our documentation. Please let us know if you have more feedback about what you'd like to see in the ArcGIS StoryMaps doc.

@PK6 - Thanks for explaining more about this situation. We are not aware of any violation related to the skip to content button. In fact, it's there to comply with criteria 2.4.1 so readers can skip over the header and jump right to the story content. Is there any more specific information you can provide about how your webmaster believes that criteria is not being met? I've connected with you on the community so you can direct message me with additional information.

@LisaHayward - Thanks for sending the link. I'm sorry you are seeing an issue with your story. I just brought it up to test it out on my iPhone and things appear to be working as expected for me. I've attached a video of what I'm seeing on an iPhone 15 running iOS 26.2.1. It does look like the iframe where the story is embedded is inside a <p> tag, which is not a best practice. I'm not sure if that would account for the issues you are seeing, but we would recommend fixing that. If you are still seeing issues on your phones, please contact Esri Support and they can help troubleshoot what might be happening on the phones you were using to view the story.

@PK6 -- Thanks for contacting us about this. The "skip to content" button is a standard part of many web sites and web pages. See this site, for example: WebAIM: Web Accessibility In Mind Can you share a bit more about why you want to remove or change this button? I'm not sure what you were referring to by the text "outlined in red." Did you perhaps forget to add a screenshot?

@ShaunReynolds @RaySchaller @LisaMcRavey - Thanks for sharing this feedback. It would be helpful to create an idea on the Ideas board with more detail about what you'd like to see added to ArcGIS StoryMaps in the future so others can comment and vote for it.

@BarbaraBiskopstøHansen -- This is the best places to post an idea to gain support for it. We definitely see the utility of this, but it also adds some complexity to map tours that we would need to think through. Could you share some additional information about what you'd expect from this feature? Are you interested in using this with tours created from scratch in the builder, ones created from feature layers, or both? Which tour layout(s) would you like to see this feature added to? If you're interested in seeing this for explorer tours, what would you expect to see for the thumbnails for each place when using a swipe? Would it be sufficient to support images or would you also want to add a swipe with two maps?

@TerezieVaňková -- I'm sorry you are having an issue creating a map tour. Could you share more information about the feature services and story that aren't working? Or, even better, are you able to share them with everyone and provide links to them here so we can investigate?

The ability to add links in quotes (and retain links if you convert from a paragraph to a quote) was added in an update to ArcGIS StoryMaps last night. Please give this a try and let us know if you run into any issues.
