Rise Request: Lock Courses to Prevent Changes and/or Accidental Deletion

I have caught myself on more than one occasion modifying the wrong Rise course. Wondering whether there's enough demand to add a lock function at the course level to prevent accidental change or deletion.  Maybe add it to the course menu as shown in the picture?

    I'm asking the same question as I've overwritten a course by mistake! Any update please? This would be a really useful option and would be used by everyone! Thanks

  • Hello to all participants in this discussion. I have already stated my reasoning on the indispensability of this feature. However, I think that this is not enough. So I would like to ask you all to create a feature request for such a feature. It may be annoying, but it works. From my experience I can say that it may take some time, but every now and then indispensable features are implemented by Articulate. So we have to keep presenting the importance of this. So please submit your feature request here.

  • I've been looking for the same sort of thing. I do a monthly newsletter in Rise. Most months I started the next months issue only a day or 2 after the previous one goes out. It's far too easy to start making changes to the wrong issue...so far no disasters, but I've come close. Sadly, it's been almost 5 years since this thread started, and apparently there's still no solution. It reminds me of the "Change bullet color in Rise" thread that seems to never end.

    Is this change actually being considered?

    Curious if there was ever any progress on including a lock feature. Requests from 2 years ago with no response?? C'mon Articulate staff!

    I would add that it would be nice if an administrator could lock the "Deleted" folder to prevent the "Delete forever" option from being used.
