Hiding placeholder blocks from published content
Hi there,
I have a use case that I don't think is covered by the product as it currently exists.
I work on creating training materials for software solutions that change rapidly. This means that I can be writing a module in the knowledge that in the pipeline are updates that will fundamentally affect the flow of the lesson.
I want to be able to add placeholders for future features, but elect to hide them so that they do not display in a published output. (Similar to hidden slides in a Powerpoint deck that don't display during a presentation in presenter mode.)
Hi, ChloePinteau177!
I can see how placeholder blocks could save time and make course editing more efficient. Thanks for sharing that idea!

Is there any special reason you can' t just create the slides/scenes for the content and not include them in navigation?
Yes: because I'm not using Storyline to create the content, I'm using Rise.
(Perhaps I should have made that clear in the body of the text - but I did tag for Rise and not Storyline.)
If there is a way to do this in Rise, then please tell me how as it's effectively the question I'm asking :)ChloePinteau177​: Rise publishes everything in a course. It doesn't have a way to hide designated blocks.
Thanks JudyNollet​ - that's what I suspected. Do you know whether this is the best forum to add a feature request?
