NEW IN RISE: Collapsing Sections

Could this also be transferred to the start page? I'm working on a course with a lot of lessons, and it would be nicer looking if the sections were closed on the start page.

Considering the number of requests to make this a default feature, I am surprised that it has still not been added. It's been nearly three years now from the first request. 

+1 I agree, this should be optional.

I'll add my vote to make whether the sections are expanded or collapsed a configurable option for the course. This will help navigate long courses.

Hello, Ponnammal! Right now, the section headers display expanded by default. Learners can collapse the headers if they choose to.

I'll let our team know you'd like the option to keep the section headers collapsed or expanded while loading the course.

Thanks for your feedback and the screenshot of what you're looking for, Kristin! We'll let you know if we add this option in the future. 

Currently, when a learner launches a Rise course the sections are either "all open" or "all closed" - and all closed means that the sections are not visible at all to the learner unless they click on the hamburger menu. Is there any way for the sections to begin as collapsed upon launch, and then let the learner control what gets expanded - similar to the way the Accordion block works today? Ideally, upon launch, the default view would look like this: 

I see others posts' here asking for something similar, but I wanted to explicitly ask about showing the collapsed view upon launch. This is about giving the learner control and access to what they need to consume when they need to consume it, and reducing the chance they are cognitively overwhelmed when they initially launch the course. If it's at all possible today to execute this, please tell me how. If not, please work on this soon. Thanks. 

Hi Neha!

Learners can expand or collapse section headers in the sidebar menu. There's no setting to turn on this behavior – it happens automatically! 

To test it yourself, add a section header to the course menu. Then, preview the course, and open the first lesson. In the sidebar menu, click the arrow to the left of the section header to expand and collapse the section. 

I think having a way to end a section would be useful.

I have single lessons before and after a section and I want them to stay as single lessons in the navigation, but to end a section I have to add another section, even though I don't want the lessons after to be in a section

e.g. I want:

• Lesson 1 (standalone)
• Section 1
  • Lesson 2 (section 1)
  • Lesson 3 (section 1)
• End of section 1
• Lesson 4 (standalone)

but currently I have to have:

• Lesson 1 (standalone)
• Section 1
• Lesson 2 (section 1)
• Lesson 3 (section 1)
• Section 2 (name=space, so looks blank)
• Lesson 4 (section 2)
