Is it possible to remove the lesson progression number and the percentage complete labels completely? I know you can customise the labels, but I would like to remove them completely.
Exactly the question I wanted to ask. I'm configuring RISE to act as a conference program and this lesson % number is not required. In fact its in the way.
Absolutely! We always love to see more ideas on how we can improve Rise. You can share your ideas here in the ELH forums, or send them along to our Product team as a feature request.
You first need to export the content and then extract/unzip it. Once you have done that you need to edit the main.bundle.css file (which, in a SCORM export, is in the scormcontent/lib folder).
Somewhere within that file will be something that looks like:
Ah, thanks for the idea. The only issue I have is that the solution works if you are exporting the file. However, I'm sharing the link and using for a different purpose than a course. Any other ideas on how to remove the percentage if this isn't used as a course?
No - there would be no way to hide this if you are just sharing the link direct from Rise. You could export to HTML, make the changes and then host that HTML somewhere else (doesn't need to be on a LMS) but that would really be the only other option.
Yep this would be a great feature. Perhaps could even just be part of the Labels functionality that works with others where if you delete the text, the whole thing gets removed (e.g. the Start button).
Thanks for the detailed info, Stuart - This process worked to remove the "Lesson # of #" text that appears above each group of blocks/lesson.
However, I'm also seeing a numbering system (lesson #) when I scroll up and down in the course at the top/bottom of each 'Section' (as entered in the Rise course development page). Does anyone have a solution for removing that as well?
I've attached a screen image - I'm referring to the top number with the red arrow, i.e. the "Lesson 2" in front of the 1. GCP - Highlights and Key Changes.
Instead of doing that I would just recommend that you just change the 'lesson' label to something that is more appropriate for your needs (i.e. 'Part' or 'Page'). This is done in Settings. I would also remove your own numbering system from the page/section names as this is what will cause some of the confusion as it won't tally with whatever Rise shows.
If you do want to hide that full line of text though (and leave just the up and down arrows at the top and bottom of the page) you can add the following to the main.bundle.css file:
.previous-lesson__title { visibility: hidden; }
To hide the same at the bottom use:
.next-lesson__name { visibility: hidden; }
To remove the lesson number and just leave the page name at the top and bottom of the pages would be a lot trickier as that needs to be done in the main.bundle.js file and is way more complex.
I’m not an expert in this…I know you can make limited changes under ‘settings’, then ‘labels’, but removing those items might require that it’s exported first.
Thanks, finally got rid of those irritating numbers.
P.S. Initially I could not find .lesson-header_counter when I searched css file until I realised that its actually .lesson-header__counter. This subtle difference almost escaped me.
We added the ability to quickly and easily turn off lesson numbers in Rise.
Go to Settings, click Navigation, and toggle the Lesson Count Labels option to Off. This removes the Lesson # of # label at the beginning of each lesson. It's particularly handy when you’ve created a branched scenario that doesn’t require numbered lessons!

It could be easily hidden by editing the main.bundle.css file if you are happy going down that route. using something like:
Thank you Stuart, I will give it a go. Hope that helps you too Alphonso.
Perhaps this could be added as a feature request for future Rise updates?

Hi Silvia,
You can modify the text surrounding the Lesson number and percentage complete similar to what I did in this Peek video.
Having the numbers or overall percentage removed completely would make a great Feature request!
Thanks very much Ashley and Alyssa, I have now sent a feature request for this.
Hi Stuart.
I can't seem to get i to work. I'm dont code very much, so it's probably me :) Can you post a screenshot of where the code should be placed?
Kind regards,

Hi Sammi,
You first need to export the content and then extract/unzip it. Once you have done that you need to edit the main.bundle.css file (which, in a SCORM export, is in the scormcontent/lib folder).
Somewhere within that file will be something that looks like:
You just need to replace everything between the brackets with
visibility: hidden;
You'd then need to rezip your content (if SCORM) to upload to your LMS.
Ah, thanks for the idea. The only issue I have is that the solution works if you are exporting the file. However, I'm sharing the link and using for a different purpose than a course. Any other ideas on how to remove the percentage if this isn't used as a course?

Anything about this one yet?
It would be excellent as we have blocks and other components which then 'mess up' the lesson numbering.
we end up moving onto a labeled diagram which shows as 2 when it's still part of lesson 1 etc.
Thanks!

Anyway, looking forward to having this feature :)
Thanks, Michael and Elizabeth for weighing in - no changes to this lesson numbering yet, but we'll keep you posted here!
Thanks for the update Ashley, I'm hoping in becomes an option in the near future!
I'm also hoping this is an added feature soon

How can this be done if I am only sharing the rise course and embedding it in a google site and not on a LMS?

Thanks Jeanine for your response. This is what I am struggling with. I don't have Notepad++ and I don't know much of JavaScript either.
@Staurt
It worked.
Thanks, finally got rid of those irritating numbers.
P.S. Initially I could not find .lesson-header_counter when I searched css file until I realised that its actually .lesson-header__counter. This subtle difference almost escaped me.
Any updates on this? Also, @Stuart, I am interested in editing the .js file. If you have the time, could you please provide the instructions? Thanks

This is great news Alyssa. Thanks very much for the update! Any news on the percentage complete label?
