ℹ️ Frequently asked questions

Can I switch between the two editors?
No, at this moment you cannot switch for the same lesson. You need to decide in advance which editor you want to use.

Why are there two separate editors?
LessonUp is working on a renewed lesson experience. That is why both the classic version and a new version are available. The new lesson editor is intended to become the standard later on.

What if a feature I need is missing in the new editor?
Because the new version is still under development, certain functionalities might not be available yet. If you need a specific feature that is not included yet, it is recommended to continue using the classic lesson editor for now.
