If you frequently create courses in foreign languages, you'll find the kit of the most popular ones useful: English, Turkish, Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Italian, Polish, Romanian, Slovak, and Japanese.
To change the language, follow the steps: “Project” – “Settings” – “Labels settings” – “Set default” – “Language”. The choice of language affects all entities that cannot be controlled from the editor, but that users see while completing the course. For example, modal windows or tooltips in blocks.
If you manually change text in one language, remember that those changes will be removed when you change the language. For example, you selected Spanish and edited the tooltip text for the “Active Labels” template. When you change the language of the entire project to English, the tooltip will again contain the standard text that the system offers, but in English, not Spanish.

We've all been waiting for this for a long time. We’ve taken a step back and three steps forward, and completely redesigned the branding page. Experience the enhanced visualization with even more real-time previews of elements. This makes branding courses more intuitive than ever before!
We’re very excited for you to see what we came up with! Here goes.
➢Introducing separate tabs for granular branding from general theme to specific element styles:
- “Theme” is where you can set the main style of your branding.
- “Course Page” is where you can manage indents, buttons, and page elements.
- “Elements” is where you can control the visual styles of every course element.
- “Advanced” is where you can manage your main color palette and custom colors.
Note: Each color in the palette controls the main color of the element and its font color.
➢ With a live preview of your course styles, you can now instantly see the changes you make to fonts, headings, and other settings.
➢ We’ve made a more convenient link for the task card:
The task card now contains the link to the editor, so you can open and work on several tasks at once in different tabs.
➢The Company Level Tasks page now has two links:
- The one at the top jumps to the task in the editor in a new window.
- The one at the bottom jumps to the task in a modal window.
Note: The links throughout the project pages now have the same format. Just to make your job a bit easier ;)
➢ Improved rich text in lists: now, when populating the list, you can:
- Create a new item using the Enter key.
- Skip to a new line without creating a new list item via Shift + Enter.
You can also insert a ready-made list from an external source into the “List” template.
With improved mechanics, working with lists is now much easier! No need for constant back-and-forth between the main screen and the side menu while adding an item.

Now, recipients can leave comments without signing up on the platform. This is particularly useful when collaborating with experts, external users, and focus groups.
You can invite both existing company users and new ones by adding their email as a collaborator. Invited users will be added to the course as participants with "Comment" permission, and to the company as temporary users with the "Commentator" role.
The invitation link remains valid for 21 days. After that, you can re-invite the user. If you need to restrict access earlier, remove the invited user from the course using the modal window or on the course team page.

In response to numerous user requests, we have made improvements to the functionality of linear course progression. The enhanced feature now allows you to customize the flow for your students. If a student fails a test in the course, you have the option to choose the alternative path for the student to proceed:
- Continue with the course;
- Restart the test until they achieve the required score for the test completion.

We have added the ability to reset the state of courses that have already been published, for cases where an already uploaded course in an LMS is outdated or requires further improvement.
This logic applies to situations where two courses from different projects are uploaded into a single project in the LMS.
To ensure that the LMS passes the completion data correctly, we recommend making a copy of the project in Parta and uploading it into the existing course container.
We recommend doing this in cases when the course has undergone significant changes that may disrupt the functionality of the new version. For example, if a section or block that was referenced has been removed, or if the question list has been modified.
To inform users about the changes, we have added a modal window that will appear in the following scenarios:
- If a student has completed the course, the system will offer them the option to reset the progress or keep it as it is.
- If a student was in the process of completing the course, the system will suggest resetting the progress and starting over.
- If a student has not yet started the course, they won't see any notifications.

With the new 2.27 release, we’re introducing an option to pass the completion progress as a course score. Meaning, if previously the score was passed only based on the final test, now the courses without a test but with a specific setting will receive both values: completion percentage and score.
To pass data in scores, select the “Passed/in progress” status in the settings.
This feature is useful because some LMS platforms track course progress based on scores, even if it doesn't include a test.

In Parta, the test section should include not only questions but also the “Start” and “Results” category blocks. We have modified the element adding window in the editor so that blocks from different categories are stored separately and you can find them quickly.
You need to set one template each for “Start” and “Results”, and as many as needed for the test questions. Depending on whether a template was selected or not, the category can have one of five statuses:

- Tasks settings have been streamlined and are now conveniently displayed in a single window.
- Changing task statuses is no longer limited to a sequential order, you can update them freely.

We have updated our role model and permissions. Now users can have one of the following roles in the company:
- Owner has access to all platform capabilities, and will also be able to delete the company if necessary.
- Administrators have access to all platform capabilities, can invite users, manage their permissions, create and edit projects, manage branding, create tasks, and assign responsible users.
- Employees have access to all company projects and can view and comment on them, but can't edit (unless they're invited to work on the project or are provided with additional permissions).
- Guests are invited users who can view the project or specific part of the project (a section or block) that they were invited to.
The user who creates a project is assigned the role of Owner for that project. They will have access to all editing capabilities and teamwork in the project. They can also invite members to the project and delete the project.
When a user is invited to be a member of a project, they will be assigned the role of Member. The project owner will specify the required permissions for members.
Permissions:
- Users: Can invite other users to the company or project.
- Creator: Can create folders and projects in the company.
- Branding: Provides access to branding.
- Team: Can invite members to the project.
- PRO mode: Unlocks access to PRO mode.

Free-form courses are convenient for users, but sometimes it's important to provide information step by step. That's why we've added a linear option.
Here's how it works: when users open the course, the menu is locked, and blocks will unlock as the user progresses. In other words, when the user reaches the third section, they'll be able to go back to the first and second, but they won't be able to unlock the fifth just yet.
