New Rise Feature: Search Course Content
Breaking news! We just released a cool new feature in Rise that lets learners search course content. Now they can use a field in the course sidebar to search keywords and jump directly to relevant results. This is a great way to let learners find key, useful info.
Pro tip: The search field is on by default, but you can turn it off in the course settings on the navigation tab.
Hi Diseñador,
I don't see that those are included in the Labels you can edit here, so I'll reach out to my team! I'll keep you posted here.

I followed this instructions but I didn’t change my label.

I'm assuming this would be a feature request, but is there a way to have the option for this feature to be set as off at an account level? We're a school, and we'd prefer to have this off for all courses we create.
That said, this is still a great feature. Thanks for continuing to give us more value!
Hi Tim,
I can share that enhancement idea with my team. In the meantime, if you create one course and duplicate it that'll keep the settings consistent. That way you'd only have to set it on the first course you make.
Hi there, Tim!
To add to what Ashley shared, here's how you can turn off that feature in one course:
Simply click Settings >> Navigation >> Scroll down to Search >> Switch toggle to Off.- DrewMcCannCommunity Member
Hello, how do you enable the Search functionality with the latest update to Rise?

Hi Drew,
Course / Theme / Navigation / Search set to ON.

I know if you set a course to restricted, it automatically turns off search. Can it be set to turn on once a course is complete? Or if set to restricted, only allow search to parse through completed sections?
Hi Bob,
Unfortunately, that’s not currently possible. If you have time to log a feature request and tell us more about your specific needs, that would be super helpful!
Let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with.

Hi
Just completed a huge course with restricted navigation, exported it to then discover the Search button had vanished.
Could you explain the reasoning behind this? Seems slightly unfair on the user to lose this invaluable function just because a restriction has been set in place.
I would be more than happy for Search to appear once the lesson is complete, for example.Thanks.
Hi Jim,
The search feature is disabled automatically when you choose restricted navigation because it would override the restricted navigation by allowing users to go to other parts of the course via the search function. If you'd like to use the search function, you'll need to choose the free navigation option.
I hope that makes sense! Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help. :)

I appreciate that. But surely Search could become available once the course is completed and navigation becomes 'free'?
I have submitted a request. Thanks.
That's a great idea! Thanks for submitting a request. :)

Plus 1 for allowing the Search function in courses with restricted navigation. I submitted the feature request.

Hi Joanna,
What you are looking for has been moved to the THEME tab.

Hello, I'm fairly new to Articulate, and I'm hoping someone might be able to help me. When using the search feature (for example, searching my course for "customer"), the word "customer" is highlighted in yellow throughout the course everywhere except for when it is part of a title. I am finding that it instead changes the title to <mark>customer<mark>. Does anyone have any ideas on what I might need to do to correct this issue? Thank you. By the way, the eLearning Community has been amazing as I continue growing my Articulate skills! Thank you!
