I’m so excited to share our latest release with you. Today, we shipped a huge update to Rise 360 that gives you more creative ways to customize the look and feel of your projects. Rise 360 now includes a variety of scroll-stopping themes—all created by award-winning designers—with more themes coming soon. Apply themes in just a few clicks, or, for that extra-personalized touch, we’ve added the option to customize many theme elements.
\n
The possibilities are endless, so let’s take a closer look at all the latest Rise 360 goodness.
\n
New Themes
\n
Rise 360 has always been a great option for quickly creating beautiful, responsive courses. And with the addition of Rise 360 themes, you’ve got brand-new ways to add your own unique spin to projects.
\n
\n
Here’s a quick rundown of each theme:
\n
\n- Rise—our original theme—is modern and clean-lined. It’s a tried-and-true design choice that never goes out of style.
\n- Apex makes a bold, contemporary statement with striking, angular flourishes.
\n- Horizon is a great choice when your project needs a design that’s elegant, sharp, and stylish.
\n
\n
You can see all three styles in the image below.
\n
\n
And these stunning new themes are just the beginning. We’ve got even more theme designs in development.
\n
New Theme Customization
\n
Before, Rise 360 theme customization options were found under the Settings menu. Now, we’ve pulled theme settings into a new Theme menu, as you can see below.

This change streamlines course creation by nesting all of the theme customization options in one spot. Under the new Theme menu, you’ll click to choose your desired theme and then click Save to apply it to your project. It’s as easy as that.
\n
These striking themes were designed to be used as is to simplify and speed the course creation process. But for that extra-personalized look and feel, we’ve added more options to customize elements like cover page layout, navigation type, lesson headers, accent colors, font pairings, button styles, and more. With so many flexible options, you can style your theme to better meet your learners’ needs and easily create more cohesive, branded learning experiences.
\n
To give you an idea of how these new themes can be customized, explore the following examples. We applied each theme to the same course content—and we customized each version with unique colors, navigation, and lesson header styles.

I have the same question. I do not want the arbitrarily assigned images and do not find a way to delete them.
I have the same question. I do not want the arbitrarily assigned images and do not find a way to delete them.
With this update, every time I open a course, it automatically changes my course tab from a color to an image. There is no longer an option to delete the image, and I don't want to make this change.
I've attached a picture to show what is happening. All tabs were blue until I opened them with the update. What should I do?
