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.

Eric, thanks for the update. I tested this on a course and realized one issue:
- With sections collapsed, there is no indicator showing the user which section they are currently viewing, making the menu useless as a navigation utility.
Here is a look at how the menu should indicate which section is currently being viewed, it automatically expands current section, and collapses other sections based on the content being viewed. This is a customization and I will share the code with your team if interested.Hello everyone,

Has anybody figured out if Javascript will work and if so would it be possible to obtain the script?

Hello GeorgePrice-3fd,
Thanks for reaching out! We do not have any updates to share at this time. I've gone ahead and shared your voice with our product team. We'll be sure to update this thread in the future with any news and updates so that all are in the loop!
Have a wonderful evening!
I would love to see the first lesson be expanded and the remaining lessons below collapsed. This would allow the user to focus on individual lessons without being overwhelmed.
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!
Hi, BOAST Program and everyone else,

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.
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.
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
This is a very necessary feature.
