Launching Rise Site with Collapsed Menu
Hi community!
I want to launch a Rise course with the menu showing, but the contents within it collapsed so that just the main lesson titles are showing. I'm actually using Rise for a repository of articles and videos where the "Lesson" is the topic (e.g., Coaching) and when users click on the drop down menu, they will see the articles and videos as sublevel contents. I've attached pictures of how the menu looks today (expanded) and how I would like it to look (collapsed). My IT contact is thinking that perhaps the Java Script in the export zip file can be altered.
Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated!
Hello everyone,
I'm happy to let you know we released a new update for Rise 360! This update adds the following feature:
- Automatically collapse sections in sidebar and compact navigation.
There's nothing to install for web apps. New features and fixes are immediately available, though you might need to publish your Rise 360 course again.
Let me know if you have any questions about this update.

We too are very interested in this! We created a Rise course with about 120 lessons, which is of course overwhelming. Learners are not supposed to go through all these lessons: they just have to open their 'own' section. It would be much better if all these sections are closed when starting the course, so learners can simply click on their own section without being blown away by the total amount of lessons.
Hi there!
Thanks for your suggestion to allow Rise courses to launch with the Sections collapsed in the Menu.
I can see how this feature can help users/learners in the scenarios that you have shared, and I will forward this to the team. We are tracking requests for this feature and will add you both to the list. We'll update this thread for any updates that can help!
This feature conversations go back at least 5 years. It can REALLY help.
Just going to throw my voice in here that this feature would be very helpful!!
This feature is needed for the ease of our learners so they do not feel overwhelmed when they open a course. Please expedite this feature! Designers would be celebrating this one big time!
This is a very necessary feature.
This would be great. I am creating a branching course, so it seems way more overwhelming than necessary when the learner first sees the navigation panel
Yes, this is very needed functionality! Some menus can get very complicated. It would be even better if the accordion expanded and collapsed to show only the current lesson, showing the progress bar (complete, in progress, or not started) for the other lessons.
Hi, BOAST Program and everyone else,
Thank you for sharing your voices here! We're still gathering votes for this request, and I've added yours to the feature report. I informed our product team of your comments to help them prioritize.
We'll let you know if there are any changes that might help. In the meantime, you can bookmark our feature roadmap page to stay updated on what we're working on.
Hi, This is something I'm looking for also. Any update on this? Also, please add my vote to this feature.
Thanks for adding your voice to this request, Stephen. This feature hasn't bubbled up to the top of our roadmap, but we're still listening to the feedback. I've added your voice to the feature report.
Here's a bit more about how we work to prioritize feature requests.
Hello EricSantos
Please add my vote to the list. This is very much needed as well from a branching need. Hope it expedites soon.Thanks for letting us know that you are also interested in the feature of being able to launch a Rise 360 course with a collapsed menu, VoulaBalkos.
I've added your voice to the feature report. We'll let you know if this is added to a future version of Rise.
Have a great rest of your day!
