Other file types that are not recommended by Teachable can be uploaded, however, they cannot be embedded into a lecture—instead, they’ll appear in your lecture as a downloadable file. To avoid confusion, ensure that your students have the applications necessary for opening the file. For example, in order for a student to open a Word document, they'll need to have Microsoft Word on their device.
Alternatively, if you wish to embed a file type that isn't recommended (e.g. Powerpoint), it may be possible to embed the content using a custom html block on school pages, or the custom code block within course lecture pages.
