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: Hide and Unhide Versions of a Project Make an Earlier Version of a Project the Current Version

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

I am throwing my hat into the ring. SO many reasons why eliminating all previous versions of work would be helpful. Any updates?

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.

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.

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.

Hi all, I'd like to add my name to a request for this feature--I work the same way as Drew and would like to continue using the same link when working with reviewers.

Same for me. I'd like the flexibility to manage/delete prior versions.

Likewise. It would be great to be able to delete older versions of courses.

Hello, is there any updates on this thread? I like to clean my Review360 account with old versions of the courses and move them to trash, but cannot figure out how? I used to get an option to delete the course and they're going my Deleted Items bin, not I cannot do it. I appreciate your advice.

Hi Maryam,

You can still delete Review 360 courses, but it'll delete all versions of that course and move them to the Deleted items bin. You'll need to delete the course from the main Review 360 page using the three dots on each card, as you can't delete while you have the course open.

We'll continue to update this discussion if we add in a feature for deleting individual versions of a course.

  A year later and I too still think this is a great idea! Just throwing in my two cents. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Hi all - I am a new 360 Review user and have a few questions. When Review projects are deleted and go into the deleted folder, how long do they stay there? Does the folder automatically empty itself at some point? Thanks!

  Hey Emily,
  
  Great question! When a project is deleted in Review 360, it remains in the deleted folder until you permanently delete or restore that file. The folder does not automatically empty the files unless you manually choose to permanently delete those files.
  
  We have a great resource that provides further details on this: Delete and Restore Projects.
  
  If you have any additional questions about this, please let us know!
