Moving courses to folders
Hi Alyssa:
This detail is potentially (slightly) confusing for the Rise 360 end-user.
That's unfortunate, because the Move courses option works a little counter to what probably many, if not most, users would tend to expect to have happen in this scenario.
I would suggest adding the following clarification NOTE to the the instructive Rise 360 Article detailing this process [not sure WHY this isn't in the full Rise 360 User Guide... perhaps when it is more officially launched(?)] on this point, under the paragraph labeled "Moving Courses to Folders":
IMPORTANT NOTE: When you Move a Course from the All Courses display space to a specific folder, it makes a duplicate COPY of the Course Title into the selected folder space:
- If you remove (DELETE) this copy from its sub-folder, Rise 360 retains the original course title in the All Courses display space.
- If you remove (DELETE) the ORIGINAL copy of this course in the All Courses space, this has the effect of ALSO DELETING any/all duplicated course title(s) in your
sub-folder's space(s). - If this occurs by mistake, you can RESTORE the affected Course Title(s) by accessing the Deleted Courses display space in Rise 360.
N.B. Renz Savilla: If Articulate updates this Rise 360 functionality to treat this aspect differently, then this NOTE/point can easily be removed from the online documentation content.

I totally agree Mark! This is not a "move" function - it's a "copy or duplicate" function. I don't like having numerous courses hanging around. "Move" is a term that's been used for years - this is NOT that.
