Hi there, Our ReadSpeaker app is not linking to the first slide on each course. Is this because it's html? This has been noted by our user testers and is a huge accessibility issue. Not to mention the additional money that we paid for this add-on. Can this be fixed?

Release Note Change History
Is there a better way to keep up with the change history of a release note update? I keep these on a slide show so I can color code what is pertinent and useful for my organization by role to be presented.
