I made several lessons in Rise, and each lesson has multiple blocks. Is it possible to copy a block from one lesson to another? I found I can duplicate blocks within a lesson, and I can duplicate entire lessons. I'm trying to copy one bock of a lesson into another existing lesson. Thanks.
It's wild to me that it's been 4 years since this original post, and there still isn't a convenient way to copy individual blocks from one lesson to another. Block templates are an okay workaround, but still a workaround, and not very convenient if you're not planning to reuse the block in other content. C'mon Articulate, this should be fairly easy to implement!
Have there been any updates on creating an easy copy function? It seems to be a serious lack in functionality. The option to copy content from one lesson to another in the same course is a must-have.
That's not at all what I or others are asking for. I understand that templates can be created and reused. However, what sometimes needs to happen is much simpler. Sometimes, I accidentally create information in one module/lesson and simply want to copy it to a different module/lesson within the same course. But I cannot do so. I can copy to another course entirely. I can make a template. But that's not what I need. I need a simple "Copy to another module" and/or "copy to another lesson". It seems the priority missed the mark when the "copy to another course" function was created, but there lacks a simple way to copy a section from one lesson to another within the same course.
I don't need or want everything saved as a template, that's so many steps when it could be a simple copy option that works the same as the "copy to another course" function.
I have flashcards in multiple courses. I want to combine all flashcards into one new course and randomize them. Is this possible without reentering them? I know I can copy the blocks from the other courses into the new one, but I cannot randomize them. Any help is appreciated!
Hi Julien! So sorry you can't combine flashcards from multiple courses into one course and randomize them. If we make any changes to this, we'll make sure to update this thread!

Can you copy a block from a lesson in one Rise course to a lesson in another Rise course?
You sure can, Cynthia! Just save the block as a block template. Then, open the other Rise course and insert the block template!
I had the same question and this was so helpful. Thank you :)
Worked like a dream! Thanks!
Whouw, this is verry helpfull! thanks

Hi Sam,
I'm work in Rise about 6 hours each day.
I use Block Templates very regularly, and consider it to be one of the most useful features for course developers.
Well designed, quick and easy to use.
If you don't want to keep a Block Template, simply delete it.

Hi Jessica,
As mentioned above, this functionality already exists:

This is exactly what a Block Template does.
