Search function in Rise
Hello everyone,
I'm happy to let you know we released a new update for Rise 360! This update fixes the following issue:
- The search feature didn't work for training that used overlay navigation.
There's nothing to install for web apps. New features and fixes are immediately available, though you might need to publish your Rise 360 course again.
Let me know if you have any questions about this update.
Search is very important for my learners too, but it is broken in the Overlay navigation menu in Rise. If you choose Overlay, the Search button just brings up a big search field in the middle of the screen but does not display any search results. Overlay is quite important for accessibility because there appears to be a bug in zooming when using Sidebar navigation:
- Storyline blocks scale normally up to 175%
- At 200%, the Storyline block shrinks to make room for the enlarged sidebar
- At 250%, the sidebar auto-collapses, and the block resizes correctly again
Because WCAG 2.2 1.4.4 specifies a requirement for 200% zoom, this behaviour represents a technical failure of the criterion when using Sidebar navigation. In contrast, using the Overlay navigation avoids this issue entirely.

Hello RichardPrince,
Thanks for reaching out! Our team is currently tracking a bug affecting the search functionality when using Overlay Navigation. I’ve added your voice to the report. We’ll keep folks posted with any news of a fix.
Thanks for the update Luciana. However, as of this morning, search also appears to be broken in sidebar and compact navigation. Both modes of navigation show the search results by lesson, but if you click on the lessons, the main content area remains blank with only navigate to the previous section showing at the top of the screen. This happens in both Chrome and Edge.
Hello RichardPrince,
Thanks for sharing this update with us. Since you're working on a support case with my colleague Mcgem, I've notified them about what you're currently experiencing in Rise. We'll continue the conversation in your case, so everything is in one spot!
