⏱️ The Essentials in 3 Minutes |
🧠 Understand Why Conversion Matters
The vertical learner experience is becoming the default on Didask. For several months, the old and new experiences coexisted to give you time to get familiar with the changes. From now on, all our improvements and new AI features are reserved for projects using the vertical experience.
📌 To learn more about this experience, see the article: Everything you need to know about the vertical learner experience.
💡 Conversion is safe: a copy of your original project is automatically preserved.
📅 Key Dates to Keep in Mind

📊 Understand What Happens During Conversion
Element | Impact of conversion |
Ongoing publishing | ✅ No impact. Publishing continues without interruption or pause. |
Existing statistics | ✅ Fully preserved. |
Learner data | ✅ No data loss. |
Learners | ✅ No action required on their end. |
💡 You can convert a project even while it is being actively published, without any risk of disrupting your learners' experience.
🔙 Understand That Conversion Is Irreversible
⚠️ Once converted, a project cannot be reverted to its previous form, even by contacting our support team.
To ensure nothing is lost:
At the time of conversion, a copy of your original project remains under the old learner experience.
This copy is not published to your learners - only the converted project is.
It is stored in a Back-ups folder, automatically created in each space of your Didask platform.
⚠️ Important: when converting, do not disable the backup toggle shown in the conversion window. This is what ensures your original project is saved.
