I am adding the checkbox list, and was wondering if there was any way if the end user could come back to this screen later with the check boxes still checked if they leave that screen and come back later?
Yes I was planning to use that block as a sort of active checklist during an induction course. It would be good of Rise could save the state of the boxes already checked. Did you make that feature request? @CrystalHorn
Hello, Arathi. Changing the behavior of checkboxes isn't on our roadmap right now, but we're still tracking these requests. We'll let you know if that changes!
I have used the checkbox functionality for this purpose:
The learner has to go though an attached document and click the checkbox. Only on confirming that, the learner can move on to the next page as I have set the Continue block setting as "Complete Block Directly Above".
And yes I see, that when the learner revisits that page during that session itself, the state of the checkbox is not saved but this time I do not have to click the checkbox again to navigate to the next page.
My question is when you are resuming the course in an LMS at a later point:
When the overall course progress is saved, will it be saved that the learner has already clicked the check box? I understand the checkbox will look unchecked (for that I may have a note that it is not required to click the checkbox again if they have already done it once). But will the learner have to repeat the process of the clicking the checkbox one more time to proceed with that lesson?
When a learner resumes a course in an LMS, the course will automatically pick up at the beginning of the last lesson or quiz where they left off. The learner should not have to repeat the process of clicking the checkbox one more time to proceed with that lesson.
You can try out this workaround proposed by Ben Mckenna. He provided excellent instruction on saving the state of the checkboxes after navigating away from the page or even closing out the browser window and reopening it.
I tried it out and can confirm it still works when I tested a Rise 360 course in SCORM Cloud.
If you have further questions about the implementation, please reach out to Ben in the original post.

Hi Anna. Rise will save your completion progress in a lesson and in the course, but it won't save the state of every block interaction or lesson type.
Your learners will return to where they left off in these lesson types:
I'm happy to submit a feature request for you, though, to have the state of those other interactions saved when learners switch between lessons!

Hi John,
Yes, we do have this logged as a feature request. I'll go ahead and add your voice to that discussion and update you here if I have any news on this.
In the meantime, if there's anything else I can do to help, please let me know!
Many thanks Allison!
Sure thing! :)
Hi Allison,

Hi Saraswathy,
When a learner resumes a course in an LMS, the course will automatically pick up at the beginning of the last lesson or quiz where they left off. The learner should not have to repeat the process of clicking the checkbox one more time to proceed with that lesson.
Thank you so much for the clarification.
Hi,
If check-boxes do not save when a course is closed out in an "in progress" status, what is an alternative with a similar checklist user experience?
