Group: Forum Members Posts: 5, Visits: 18	Hi there, This is my first script where I need to redirect participants to a debriefing page, and I'm having trouble setting it up. In the settings, I go to 'redirect to a custom finish page' and upload a htm file. After this, it shifts over to 'redirect to external website' and has the .htm extension in the web address. When following this URL, it takes participants to a blank page. Am I doing something wrong here? -Steve

The two options -- (1) custom finish page uploaded to the millisecond.com server and (2) redirect to some external URL -- are functionally identical, i.e. they boil down to the same thing. > When following this URL, it takes participants to a blank page. To see why that is, I'd need you to please post the link to your experiment's start page here. Edited 7 Years Ago by Dave

At the finish page section, it redirected to this URL: https://scripts.millisecond.com/sgroves/Study_1/debrief.htm, whereas in the upload files section the link contained a lower-case 's' for 'study'. I changed the S to a lower case and this solved my problems. -Steve
