My Rise Wish List
The following is my wish list for Rise! Having used it extensively over the past few months, I still love many of the features, flow, appearance...but I am also frustrated with Rise and Articulate. ...
Thanks Don for all the thought and detail. All good food for thought and prioritization – but in the shorter term I’d settle for the following big rocks (in rough priority order):
- Global search capability.
- Copy blocks/lessons from one course into another course.
- Ability to mix and match within a single lesson the built-ins and the blocks.
- Rise-native mechanism to author tables and also to be able to bring them in from common office formats.
- Ability to subsection-ize material such that the Rise TOC/left-nav-pane can display more levels of direct navigation.
That said, the suggestion of community +1’s on specific number items is also a good idea.
I would like to add another "wish list" feature:
I use the interactive "accordion" block to create a glossary list for Rise courses. I need the items to be alphabetized, but if I don't know all the terms beforehand, it is a pain to add new items later. (You can only append new items to the end of an accordion block, so to add a new item, you must edit and rebuild the entire list. This is especially painful when adding an item at the beginning of a glossary list [for example, a term beginning with the letter "a"].)
The ability to add an item anywhere in an accordion block would be a great help.

Hey Michael, you CAN 'drag and drop' your accordion blocks by clicking the edit content (pencil) and then when you hover over your item, the hamburger menu dots appear on the far left and your mouse turns to a hand icon. click your mouse and you can drag the item up or down as needed.
