Hi all, I would like to hide the page title areas on my Articulate Rise pages. I found this 3 minute video on the web that explains exactly what I want, but he is modifying his HTML and CSS on his local computer. I think some folks will agree that his pages look more streamlined without the title area (for some projects). http://www.learningdojo.net/articulate-rise-hiding-the-page-title-area/ I understand the basic concepts, but my file structures look different. (I would really be great if there were a feature in settings that allowed me to hide the title areas with a check block:). Can someone help me out, please. As always, thanks in advance to all the kind folks who help out. Jeff

I appreciate your input, Adam. I'm not criticizing Rise. But in the case of a video based training (like software for example), the title area is so deep that the learner must scroll to see the video. In some cases, it would be helpful to at least have a more compact title area. I would use Storyline, but I am unable to get it to be responsive across a wide range of devices (something that Rise does spectacularly). Not every project requires strict adherence to e-learning science and protocol. Sometimes a simple video explanation is the best training tool (think YouTube). Rise provides an excellent 'container' for videos with a menu that organizes everything very nicely. And most importantly it is RESPONSIVE. In some cases, making the title area more compact would create a more attractive and user-friendly interface for the learner. I can tell from your response that your not convinced, but I do appreciate your prompt and candid reply.

Agreed. We would really like to remove the titles as well. Users are complaining about having to scroll down so far to get to the content.

I made the original post and I'm glad to see some interest in this feature. In my opinion, if a course is properly developed, it is generally unnecessary to display title after title to keep the student oriented (the context of the lesson should keep the student from getting lost). But, based on Adam's original reply to this thread, his research says otherwise.

Thanks for the quick reply, Adam. I do tutorials for aircraft technicians that are often demonstrations of procedures or processes. I'm developing one now that demonstrates the procedures for building an aircraft connector (i.e., choosing the correct crimping tool, configuring the crimper, etc.). They are more or less a series of videos that are organized in sections by Rise's awesome menu. There will also be quizzes along the way. If you have ever watched any videos on Lynda.com you will get the picture. The link to the video in my last post does a good job of explaining the need to remove the title area in some cases. I think you may agree if you watch the first 30 seconds or so. I certainly have other options, but I love Rise's ability to be responsive to all devices and it's attractive interface. Thanks again for the prompt reply.

I agree that it would be great to be able to remove or at least shrink the header. It's really huge.

This would still be a great feature. Any chance it's been completed? I couldn't find a way to remove the header.

+1 to this discussion and to the ability to hiding/adjusting Lesson Title or header.

We do a lot of facilitator lead training and our facilitators can introduce a topic if necessary. But I completely understand how this would be a necessity in web based training or self paced training.

Thanks!

For some purposes I find there is to much white space in the header area. Add my request to get this adjustable in the settings. Thanks

Is there a solution for this yet? I see the last comment was from over 2 years ago. My project requires more visual titles to each block, so I would like to be able to hide the default title as well. Can this be done?

  As mentioned previously, the CSS hack works, it's just not optimal.

    Thanks Jen - Do you have a link to the CSS hack? The link in the original post is no longer valid.

Is there anything new about the original question? As far as I can see, the current version of Rise still doesn't allow for removing or reducing the height of lesson title pages. Any updates would be much appreciated! Thank you! :)

Hi Deniz! We'll post updates here if we get any new information that will be helpful. Thanks for checking in!

Thanks for the link to the roadmap, Alyssa.

I shared a screenshot of the Rise features listed and my team exercised some creative liberty to make a wishful thinking roadmap.

Figured we could all use a chuckle in today's world.

I would like to hide the title for a use case where I want to insert one block from Rise into the middle of my larger Storyline course. I already have a title slide in Storyline so having to see a title and click to begin in the middle of my eLearning is redundant.

Hello all!

We've had some shifts in our roadmap, but we'll let you know if we add the option to hide the lesson header in the future.
