Rise Versioning

Hi Heroes,

For maintenance purposes, is there a place in a Rise course where I can identify versions of the file (not the title)? Wondering what kind of process others are using. This would be in cases of an annual update cycle, etc. where you want to be able to identify and save files pre and post updates.  

Looking forward to your thoughts on it.

Thanks!

Tammy

  • Yes please! Versioning is needed. I like the idea of a field added to Settings.

  • Yes this is definitely needed.  You end up with loads of files especially in a Team setting.  For Legal purposes we need to keep one version of a course, but we do need to do maintenance and we can change the legally approved course.  This is hard to manage and then if you have to do translations.....

  • Versioning is needed as well, to manage content you may delete and want to restore. After the pause of our business due to COVID we wrote some content that I'm revising this year -- and after deleting several blocks realized they may need to be reworked rather than deleted. Instead of recreating this content by painstakingly copying over from Rise published versions it would be great to be able to go back step by step or restore an older version. This is especially dangerous for files people may need to save for compliance, and time consuming. Either we have to copy the whole course for an old version or save block templates of everything.... Please fix as both the need for "Undo" and versioning have been reported many times over the years. Thank you.

  • Hi All! Thanks for reaching out and letting us know this feature is important to you. No plan for this yet on the current roadmap. We'll let you know if we make any changes that help!

    Please work on this feature it is very important! When audits roll around it is very difficult to stay on top of compliance.

    I suggest adding a metadata field where we can add version info, tags, course codes, notes, etc that perhaps sits underneath each course tile in the Rise course list, for quick identification.

    This is huge for record keeping and right now it is a pain! We're exporting to PDF then downloading and storing but there are several quirks with this method.

      Kind Regards,

        Hi Mary!

        Thanks for reaching out!

        As I shared with HS & TT, our development team has been prioritizing other features, but you're in the right place for updates! We'll be sure to notify you if it makes it onto our Feature Roadmap.

        Also, it looks like part of your e-mail signature came through when you replied via e-mail. You can remove that if needed by clicking ‘Edit’ beneath your response.

    • Hi HS & TT!

      Thanks for checking in on this!

      I don't have any updates to share at this time, as our development team has been prioritizing other features. Not to worry! I've added you to the feature report and will provide updates if it makes it onto our Feature Roadmap.

      In the meantime, here's a deeper look at how we manage feature requests.

  • Hi there - our team is hoping for some versioning options in Rise as well. We use Review versioning when needed, but we have multiple people managing courses and Review only allows for one person to host the review link and versioning (we are agile and usually the same person isn't publishing a new version of a course). For legal purposes, we'd love a simpler, team-wide solution to this! Thanks so much for keeping it on the radar and hopefully including it in a feature roadmap.

      Hi Kelly!

      Thanks for the feedback on how version control of Rise courses could benefit you and your team!

      I've included your voice in the feature report and will update this discussion if it makes it onto our Feature Roadmap.

      Have a great rest of your week!
