Creating own templates in Rise
Hello!
I'm looking for a way to create my own templates in Rise 360.
Does this feature exist?
Thanks!

Yes, Rise has the functionality to create Block Templates.
See: https://articulate.com/support/article/Rise-Creating-Sharing-and-Reusing-Block-Templates
Hello, Valtech Academy!
In addition to the Block Templates feature that Karl shared, Rise 360 also includes engaging, customizable templates so you don't have to start building from scratch. Simply add your text and media, and Rise 360 does the rest.

Hi Karl and Alyssa!
Thank you so much for getting back to me. I found it!

Hello,
I just tried out the block template feature for the first time, and was disappointed to discover that when I open up a block template in a new course, none of the formatting carries over, e.g. the colour scheme. Is there a way to rectify this?
Thanks.

Hi Charlotte,
The entire course follows the theme color and fonts, so when you insert a block template, it will automatically adapt to the course's theme.

Hi There, I understand how to create Template Blocks and how to use existing Rise Templates. But I've created my own Course Outline that I'd like to use as a Template for all future new courses I create. Is this possible?

Hi,
You can use that course as a template by making copies of the course for each new course development project.
Hi Lindsay! Karl is spot on! Simply click the three dots on the course card, and choose Duplicate to reuse a template course. I hope that helps!

Awesome, makes sense. Thanks!

Can someone tell me how to get the duplicate option to show up on a share course? All I have is the option to remove.

Hi,
Are you assigned to the course as a Course Collaborator? In that case your options are limited:
These are the three possible roles for a course:
- The Course Owner can do everything.
- A Course Manager can't edit labels, transfer ownership, or delete the course.
- A Course Collaborator can't access any of the options in Settings, Share, Review, or Export. They can only edit the course.

I am assigned as a collaborator.
Hi Linnaea, you'll need to get in contact with the course owner to upgrade your role, or to request the course owner to send you a duplicate.

We use block templates and duplicate courses, but I would love to create course templates to share with my team as easily as we do block templates.
If you are looking for ideas or suggestions!- KristinWhite-07Community Member
I agree, this would be a great feature to add!

Hi Kristin,
We have created a course that has all of our standard Theme settings applied such as the navigation, colors, fonts, etc. We also have a quiz that as all the settings applied.
When we start a new project, I copy the template and rename it. It saves a lot of time and ensures consistency.
