Hello! Is there a way to delete multiple lessons and sections at once in Rise?

Bulk delete lessons, please!

Need this
Agree, this would definitely save soooo much time.
Has this become available yet?
Hi, Admin CET. Rise 360 lessons and sections can be deleted one at a time. Thanks for checking in!
That's not correct Alyssa - You CAN'T delete a "Section" at all. That's our issue and the reason for the original comment more than 2 years ago.A course with 10 sections and dozens of subsections each needing an individual delete is a huge time-suck. An example of why this is needed is when needing to split up a course after it's built.
Please up this in your 'what we're working on' list. It's way past time. Thanks!
Hi Jennifer,
Curious to know why you think a Section cannot be deleted.
I delete Sections on a regular basis and did so again just a few minutes ago.
Do you not see the Delete button?
Did it delete the content within the section or just the section title?
Sections behave differently in Preview Mode and Edit Mode.
In Preview Mode, Rise automatically treats the Section (title) as the parent, and the Lessons and Quizzes that appear below the Section are treated as its children.
However, as this happens dynamically during Preview Mode and when the course is exported, no parent/child relationships actually exist while in Edit Mode.
While in Edit mode, a Section is merely a dumb text label, has no contents, and consists only of one item, what you are referring to as the Section "title".
For these reasons, when you delete a Section in Edit mode, it will only delete the Section "title".
Which is exactly the problem and what this topic has been asking for: a way to bulk delete "children" or to delete a "parent" and its "children" as one action. Hopefully this is something that can be added soon!
Bulk delete still needed!!!!!!!
Really, still no bulk delete? Pathetic.
Bulk delete, tying blocks together (outside of creating a block template), navigation tree within the lesson, format painter...simple things would make Rise perfect.
