We have a question about publish options being the owner vs. manager of the course.
Currently we have a team that is working on multiple courses. Currently, when we are trying to republish a course that has already been published, the owner is the only one that can republish without changing the original link.
Is there a way for the managers of the course to publish a new version of a course that has already been published and not change the original link?
If you're a course manager, you'll only have the option to Create a new item when publishing to Review 360, since the existing item isn't in your own Review 360 dashboard. You won't see this new item published in your Review 360 account, but the original course owner will see it in theirs.
I can understand how that functionality is challenging for your team, and your feedback is really helpful. We'll let you know if we make changes to collaborating in Review 360 in the future!
Hi, our team has run into the same issue. We have to transfer ownership of our modules to the project coordinator because every time she republishes the review link as the course manager, it publishes to a new/different link instead of the original one which causes a lot of confusion. I agree with Eric, it would REALLY help if everyone who has editing rights would be given the same publishing rights as well. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your experience, Jizell. We're looking at how we can make team content management easier, and I've tagged this discussion to be updated with relevant changes.
Indeed, the same for us. It's not practical that only the owner can publish. I have people on different time zones and if we forget to change ownership, we are stuck for a couple of hours. Would be good if we can change that. Thanks!!!
I can't upvote this enough. I am constantly having to explain to people why they need to give me course Owner access instead of just Manager. In fact, we have pretty much no need of the Manager role for this reason.
Please prioritize this functionality. Would love to see a team shared review dashboard. It is very difficult to manage multiple review links for my SMEs. Thanks!
Create shared team folders in Review 360 to organize your content and assign permissions. Allow multiple authors to publish new versions of the content you shared in these folders for better collaboration.
Yay, TY Lea! I'll share the article update with the team. We literally ran into this hurdle again with a current project where only I as owner could pub new versions of certain courses, otherwise our stakeholders couldn't continue to use the same review links.
Sidebar to others reading this post, you'll run into this same hurdle with Q Banks if you don't move them into a Team QB tab, not Personal. Otherwise, others on the team can't access the Q Bank.

Thanks for the info.
It would be very helpful to have the owner make that as an option when assigning a Manager and giving that manager all publishing rights as well.
We had a huge issue when we republished a course and had to redistribute the link again to a ton of people reviewing.
Thanks, Eric

Yes to the team shared review dashboard similar to other team accounts!
Hi folks! I’m happy to let you know that we’ve released a new Team Folders feature in Review 360.
Create shared team folders in Review 360 to organize your content and assign permissions. Allow multiple authors to publish new versions of the content you shared in these folders for better collaboration.
You can check out the full details of this feature here: Review 360: Share Items with Team Folders
We’d be happy to hear how this feature works for you!
Wonderful!!!
