Preserving your learners' bookmarking following a re-release

When a course is re-released, the bookmarked position and progress of any learners that are mid-way through the course will be reset.

If you do not want your learner's bookmarking to be cleared, you can choose to retain it before re-releasing the course. This will mean that your learners can pick up where they left off even after the course has been re-released.

Note: Retaining bookmarking in a re-release may not be available in your account. If you can’t see this option, please reach out to the Support team and we’ll be happy to provide more information.

 

Choosing to retain bookmarking

1. Open the Project which has a live course you'd like to re-release 

2. Go to Release

3. Find the course you'd like to re-release and select the re-release icon (Screenshot_2023-04-12_at_15.58.08.png). See Updating a Release for more information about re-releasing a course.

4. Select Re-release and retain bookmarking (recommended) from the re-release pop-up which appears after clicking the re-release icon:

5. Select Re-Release

This will re-release the course whilst still preserving your learner's bookmarking. 

Note: Retaining bookmarking is only possible if the changes made since the last release are in the non-clearing category. See Understanding the types of edits that affect bookmarking after a re-release for more information.

 

For releases made prior to April 2022

Retaining bookmarking for a release is not available for courses whose last release or re-release was made prior to April 2022. If you'd like to retain bookmarking in your release, you'll need to perform a full re-release before you can use the retain option.
