Hi there
I noticed some weeks I have put up multiple versions of my storyline file to articulate review, I thought I would de-clutter the drop down list, but doesn't look like I can delete old versions? Is that true? Or have I just missed how to do it?
I don't want to lose all the comments, so I don't want to delete and upload new, it is important to update new version of existing to keep the comments....
Thanks
Teresa
Hello, everyone!
You can now hide and unhide versions of your project in Review 360 and change which one will be the current version. The following sections of this article will give you additional information:
Fantastic- we asked and you answered!

Thank you Articulate team! :) Most useful. Appreciate the new development.
Hi Maria.
Thank you very much for your helpful reply. :-) And of course also a big thanks to the whole Articulate team for this feature.
Have a wonderful day.
Hi I'd like to to add my voice to this request. It would be great to be able to send out a 'clean' published item using the same link as before but without a list of previous versions in the dropdown. I don't want clients scrolling through that. I just want them to have the current version. Nor do I want to change the name of the link and have to confuse them by sending updated links everytime something is updated - its better if they know they can just use the same link they know and trust and not get muddled over which link to use.
Hi there
I too would find a feature where you are able to delete a specific version from review really useful. Not sure how to comment on feature request (or if it is possible?) so adding the comment here.
Example of a scenario where this is useful - I just published a new version of a Storyline file to review after a team member had worked on it and realised a few minutes later dropbox had not synched, so the version I published was incorrect. I need to keep the trail of previous versions (as there are specific checks and changes on each) and new versions in the same Review file, though would have liked to delete the incorrectly published version as it is redundant and may cause confusion down the line.
In the meantime (perhaps for a different thread), if you have any suggestions of a better way of working on SL projects with a remote team, without using dropbox (we are experiencing numerous sync issues with no solution from dropbox after months of enquiry) that would be really great as it may prevent issues like the above in future. I have the feeling I may be missing something obvious I'm missing in the workings of team slides!
Thanks
Jessica
Hi Jessica,
Thank you for reaching out and adding your voice! I will be sure to provide these comments in our report for our team to review. You are in the right place, so we will be sure to share any updates to this thread!
In regards to working on SL projects with a team, I wanted to share this help guide that discusses Team Slides and working collaboratively in more detail. Team slides can make collaborating easier for your team by allowing you to share and manage team slides and insert them into Storyline courses.
Please let us know if you have any questions! We are happy to help!
I am throwing my hat into the ring. SO many reasons why eliminating all previous versions of work would be helpful. Any updates?
Was thinking maybe at least they could enable hiding one or all -- something like hiding an object on a SL timeline; or a preference setting to hide older versions - could still get at them if we really wanted to? Free UI suggestion for the Review 360 dev team ;)
This seems a straightforward feature that has been requested for quite some time...?
For several of the same reasons, I would love to see this implemented.
Agree, I don't want to have to send out new links to people. I just want to update to a new version and have that as the only thing people see. I don't want old versions lurking there for people to look at and query. Old versions could have a delete button, or a hide/disable button in the same way as we can disable comments. Thank you.
Please, everyone, send your "Feature Request" to the Articulate team so that they know how important it is to us that this issue gets resolved.
Hi Teresa,
Great question and idea! We sent it along to our team to look into as a new feature as we don't currently have anything like that. We'll keep you posted here as we track demand of that feature, and here's a little insight into how a feature becomes a part of our roadmap.
If you need to delete courses from your Review account, but are worried about losing comments, take a look at the steps here to export them.
Thanks Ashley, I appreciate the information and I will take a look at the steps you have provided.
This would be ideal. We currently have a course being developed where there's confidential or private info that missed getting edited out of a "first take" the review link is already shared so it's not very convenient to delete and start new.
