Remove course cover page?
Is there a way to remove the cover page altogether? I'm referring to the first page you see with the Start Course button, Details link, and content areas listed below. When my learner clicks to view the course, I want it to open directly to the first lesson.

+1 on this, any updates on this Alyssa? Thanks.
Hi Sara,
Thanks for reaching out! If we make any changes to remove the course cover page in Rise 360 in the future, we'll let you know!+1 - Throwing my voice into the empty void. I'm assuming it's in the 'backlog' but needs a certain number of responses before it gets attention?
Please Subscribe. 40,000 Likes and I'll post part 2! :DI figured out a way around this that works for us -- hoping that Articulate doesn't change it though.
We use Google Cloud to host our courses - and then call on them from Thinkific or Teachable, primarily.
On the hosted page (not preview), click the "Let's Begin" button, and copy the link address of the launched page.
Then, use THAT link as your content URL in your LMS.
It skips the landing page and gives our students direct access to the content.
Hope this helps some others solve this problem.
Ah, interesting. I had assumed that wouldn't work because every time I had heard it mentioned, it was in relation to SCORM. But I'm guessing you're launching with xAPI instead of SCORM to avoid the Cross Domain issues for cloud-based storage?
I've got a fully customised LMS solution, with xAPI content streamed from an S3 Bucket (AWS storage). I might give that a go and see whether the reporting works properly.
Thanks @JoshMassey
@Josh Massey -- in this case, do you use the URL in a multi-media file? (Rather than uploading the zip file in a multi-media lesson?)
And any update yet?
Hello, Mitch! Rise 360 doesn't have a feature that would allow you to remove the course cover page. Thanks for letting us know you need that option!
People have been asking for this for a few years it seems. Does Articulate have an active upcoming features list? Would be nice to have something where we can see what is coming in the next updates.
Or if Articulate could let us know what code to comment out to remove it.
Sure this would void the 'warranty' but that doesn't matter to those of use that need to remove it.Hi Mitch!
Thanks for following up! Here's our Featured Roadmap for Rise 360, where it lists down all our features in development and those in the planning stages. Hope it helps to see what we have in store!
Thank you @Renz, I see this but do not see features that the users have been requesting for years. Rather disappointing.
Will just have to edit the code.Hi Mitch, you can check out these links from other community members,
and if you have questions, you can ask them in those discussions.
