New to Rise - is there a way for a checklist to stay ticked?
Hi
We added a check list to Rise and wondered if there is a way for it to remember what has been ticked. There is a to do list that can be checked off and it would be great if it remembered what staff had ticked already when they come back in. Is that possible? I am uploading the finished product to a totara LMS.
Thanks

Adding my vote for this. We use this for new hires and this is one of the most frustrating non features.

+1 for me. What is the point otherwise?
Hey Jo, thanks for checking out Rise! Since you mentioned that you're new to the tool, I wanted to share these insider tips with you. 💡
Now, on to your question. When you use a Checklist block in Rise, the boxes will always be unchecked when the learner resumes the course. I did pass along that idea for the boxes to remain checked to our team as a feature request.
Hopefully others in the community have some creative ideas to help in the meantime!

Has the requested feature for the boxes to remain checked been implemented yet? And if yes, are there any instructions on how to use it?
Hi Susan!
Thanks for letting us know this feature is important to you. While the checkboxes will still be unchecked when the learner resumes the course, we're keeping our eyes on this request.

Hi Alyssa,
We are experiencing this same issue, please would you give us an update on it. I believe this to be a bug within Rise and not a feature request as you have positioned it. As I work through the course on the LMS, the menu items are checking off perfectly as one would expect. We then close the course before resuming at which point these previously completed/ticked off sections are now unticked again and require us to navigate back to that section, complete the checklist again before jumping back to the last section and continuing. Please see image attached for reference. Left image is before closing, while right image is after resuming. You will notice the previously completed sections are now incomplete on resume. Your assistance would be much appreciated.
Hi there, Jarred. It sounds like because checkboxes don't retain their state when revisiting a lesson or resuming a course, it's causing an issue with progress and navigation in the LMS environment. Let me bring this up with my team and update you here when I can!
Hi, Jarred. We had a closer look at how checkboxes would impact the progress and completion of a course hosted in an LMS. We found that even though checkboxes did not resume their saved state, there wasn't any impact on progress in a resumed course.
If you are continuing to have issues with the progress or completion of your courses, especially when they've been resumed, please let us know! We'll work with you to find out why.

I would also like Rise to 'remember' what a user has left unchecked. If there is any way to vote for new features, please let me know :)
Hi Roni,
Thanks for letting us know what you'd like to see! I'll add your vote to this request.

I have the same issue - I don't understand why you would create a check list if you can't check off completions and for Rise to remember it. Sort of defeats the purpose of having a check list. Any alternatives?

I would like this feature too.
What's the point of a list style that can be checked or unchecked? It used to leave students confused, so we stopped using it.
Thank you both for adding your voices, Robyn and Internacional. We'll share any changes here.
