Moving blocks in Rise
Is there a way to move a block from one lesson into another lesson within a Rise course?

You can drag it. Put your mouse pointer on the hamburger menu to the left of the block and your pointer will change to a hand. Drag the block up or down as needed.
I want to move it into a different lesson. Can that be done?
Hey Angie and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
If you want to copy blocks from one lesson to another, using Block Templates is the way to go!
Hope that helps and let us know if you have any further questions.
I am trialing Articulate 360 and trying to get my head around using Rise...
I have just entered a block in the wrong lesson - Like Angie above, I want to move it to the correct lesson.... Can this be done (easily) ?
I dont want to create a template as I doubt I will use that particular block again - I just want to move it to the lesson it should be in!
Hi Patricia,
Right now, the only way to do this is to create a block template and then insert the template into another lesson. If you don’t plan to re-use it, you can always delete it afterwards.

If the ability to move blocks from lesson to lesson would make authoring in Rise easier for you please feel free to submit a feature request.
I hope this helps - please reach out if you have more questions!
So Easy! Thanks!
Yes, the ability to move blocks from lesson to lesson, freely, would make authoring in Rise easier! Not to mention when doing review on course structure, if collabs had the option to change structure as a suggestion and then when approved, it would generate a new version. Stepping back and forth in versions in combination with moving blocks from lesson to lesson would be powerful.
Thanks for your feedback, Internal Training! We always welcome ideas on how we can make Rise 360 even better.
I have put in the request also. An example is that recently a client wanted all blocks in one lesson and we built a project which took 6 months to complete as each block was a video that had to be developed. Once done the client asked to see the project split out to separate lessons to see if the flow was better for the users. They wanted it quickly.
We should not have to tell customers that something either cannot be done or more time consuming.
I t would be useful to be able to drag between lessons or have the option to choose " Move to Lesson X, Y or Z " etc.
Using Templates to move blocks from one lesson to another is a very quick and efficient process that I use on a daily basis. I completely restructured a course yesterday using Templates.
It is not difficult to do and not time consuming at all.
Thanks for sharing your experience, Karl! The block templates feature makes it easy to copy content from one lesson to another. Here's how it works!
I am trying to move a lesson in Rise up one. I get the hand and drag but nothing moves....HELP!
That is the correct way to do it. Move the cursor over the Lesson name. When the hand appears, drag the Lesson up or down, and drop it.
