I have a very large course that I am creating that is going to be a bunch of smaller courses pulled together.
I have a few of the smaller courses already created and I am trying to duplicate the small courses and make them into lessons within the larger course but I can seem to figure out how to do this.
Please help! This will be something I need to do rather often in the future.
I saw this and tried it but it presents a problem for us.
I tried this and it did work, however, then I have a bunch of small modules that I need to group together under one lesson. From what Ive seen, there is no easy way to take these individual modules and then bring them into one lesson.
For that situation you should Rise Block Templates. Templates will allow you take blocks from several different Lessons and combine them into one Lesson. It will require creating multiple templates but it will work.
Here is detailed information about using Templates:
Was looking for this too. I have a lot of tiny modules that I would like to merge into one big module. Had to do it per lesson. Would have saved me some time if there was a possibility to merge courses together. Maybe a tip for the future :)
To amplify what Karl has said about block templates, these give you a very powerful way of moving content.
We often reposition elements of a unit by creating a new block template and selecting those items we want to reposition, saving the block with the name, 'copy' then finding the insertion point in the unit, opening up the block templates choosing the block called 'copy' (it will show at the top of the block list) then opening it at the insertion point. Then we delete the block called, 'copy' in the templates list. Sounds long winded but, takes only a couple of minutes.
We've also created some blocks with the formatting we want, background colour, font size and a sample of text to give us the equivalent of 'Styles' that you meet on the ribbon in MS Word. That way when there is a new heading needed, we grab the style block from the blocks list and pop that in place then enter, for example, text into the block. Again, once you have your style blocks you are away.
What I'd love is for the block template list to be open as a side window so that I could select as I go rather than having to open the block template list then select what I need.

Rise does not have a function to merge courses.
However, you can copy an entire Lesson from one Course to another.
To do this, open the Rise course that will be the source.
Click the three dots to the right of the Lesson name and then choose Copy to another course.
Select the destination course.

Have a good day!
I agree...this would be a great addition to Rise.

Good luck.
