Rise Request: Lock Courses to Prevent Changes and/or Accidental Deletion

Can you explain why?

This is an obvious feature.

Hi Celia! We prioritize features based on these criteria. If we make any changes that will help you, we'll let you know. 

Hi

Any updates on the Lock feature?

Thanks

MS

Asking about progress on this as well. The ability to "lock" a course or folder would be phenomenal! 

Thanks for your interest in this feature. No updates on this, but we'll make sure to reply to this thread if this becomes available in the future.

+1 for locking courses!  Or set a specific folder 'In progress' as default on the start page.

I would also like to add my voice to the call for this feature. In my opinion it is essential to be able to lock a course from editing, while still being able to view its contents. It is hard to understand how this feature isn't on the immediate roadmap. E-Learning Portfolios in Companies are growing, so are the teams that create and manage them. If Rise had a version history, where you could track changes and restore old versions, I would understand that this feature isn't pursued. But since there is no such thing, the lock feature would be an alternative. Sadly it seems we're stuck with making a duplicate whenever we're making a willingful change to a course. 

Agree with the need to be able to lock down a course.  I was hoping they were working on a way to lock a course by section as I have collaborated with 3 or 4 people to create an informational Rise and don't want to risk someone accidentally removing my content.  

Thank you!

Just checking on any updates to this Lock feature.

I'm asking the same question as I've overwritten a course by mistake! Any update please? This would be a really useful option and would be used by everyone! Thanks

Hello to all participants in this discussion. I have already stated my reasoning on the indispensability of this feature. However, I think that this is not enough. So I would like to ask you all to create a feature request for such a feature. It may be annoying, but it works. From my experience I can say that it may take some time, but every now and then indispensable features are implemented by Articulate. So we have to keep presenting the importance of this. So please submit your feature request here.

I've been looking for the same sort of thing. I do a monthly newsletter in Rise. Most months I started the next months issue only a day or 2 after the previous one goes out. It's far too easy to start making changes to the wrong issue...so far no disasters, but I've come close. Sadly, it's been almost 5 years since this thread started, and apparently there's still no solution. It reminds me of the "Change bullet color in Rise" thread that seems to never end.

Is this change actually being considered?

Curious if there was ever any progress on including a lock feature. Requests from 2 years ago with no response?? C'mon Articulate staff!

I would add that it would be nice if an administrator could lock the "Deleted" folder to prevent the "Delete forever" option from being used.
