Hi everyone, I have uploaded a Rise course to our LMS and then completed it. When I then go back to look at different lessons, the continue button block has disappeared, and the only way I can navigate is to use the menu tree on the left. My settings in Rise are to always show the continue button. How do I fix this? Thanks Emma

I've had about 10 issues now with this software and the awful settings you impose. Had I not already spent days building out a course for the client already, I would have moved to a different solution. You are FORCING your users to conduct their own courses, in a specific way, that a vast majority simply do not want. What's more, I've seen hundreds of comments on these issues on your forum like this. You have a 'free' and available resource of user research here, and a lot of it is 10 months ago, 14 months ago, 2 years ago.... and obviously nothing has been implemented. Allowing your uses to choose if their buttons disappear or not, should be a standard. I don't like your next/previous buttons, as they are labeled as your lesson name. We dont want that. we just want a "next" or "continue" button rendering this solution useless.

Hi, I'm another person who doesn't love the continue buttons disappearing. I've used a branching scenario using the link buttons (before the scenario interaction was available) and therefore don't want people to be able to see everything in the menu or navigate using the menu. The continue buttons were nice and big and easy to see/ lock when required and now I have to remove them all because people can no longer see them if they have to go back to the course.

Yes, this is causing issues for our learners. I want to make sure they look at each section before moving on, so I have added continue buttons. It doesn't make sens that they would disappear. It would be great if they stayed unlocked once they pass that section. Our issue is, some users are doing part of the course then returning at a later time to complete the remainder. This is causing them to think the course is broken and will not let them move forward.

We're experiencing this same problem. Our client at The Coca-Cola Company tasked us with building a Rise course with auto-playing narrations. Since there isn't a good solution for that in Rise (even though many people are asking for it), we discovered that including the audio in Storyline blocks allows narrations to auto-play. We added "Continue" buttons after each Storyline block to ensure they would play one at a time. Unfortunately, now that the entire course has been built, we've discovered that if a user completes a lesson and then goes back to it to review, all of the blocks play at the same time. We really need a solution for this!

Hi Emma, It sounds like you may have turned off the Next and Previous buttons and have inserted Continue blocks to allow your learners to navigate from one lesson to another. Is there a specific reason you decided to do that? Continue buttons are set to disappear once clicked, so that’s why you’re not seeing them the second time through the course. The easiest way to fix this would be to turn the Next and Previous buttons back on in the course settings and delete the Continue blocks. I hope that makes sense! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Three years ago. Is this a priority for the Rise staff yet??

Since the Rise staff isn't interested in fixing this problem, perhaps some smart "coder" can help up tinker with the code to make the continue buttons NOT disappear. Any awesome coders out there?

Still an issue that requires a solution. The automatic next/prev button is problematic because it auto numbers elements of the course. If you could customize what the block says or keep regular lessons from being included in the lesson count (for example, I have an intro I don't want to increment the lesson count) then it wouldn't be as big an issue. FIX THIS!

I just can't see any possible benefit to restricting the Continue button's behavior like this. Why can't we just check a box for whether the button disappears or not? This seems like it's exclusively a negative.
