Track Progress in Web Academy Changed?

Rich | Last updated: Jun 27, 2023 06:01PM UTC

Hello - I've been away from using the PortSwigger academy for a few months now (which is great content btw!). I remember the last time I used the content, that I was able to mark each page I read as "completed", for a certain section (i.e. XSS, SQLi). This helped track my progress as I was working my way through the vast amount of content that PortSwigger provides. However, I just logged in today and noticed the UI has changed. Am I missing hte ability to track which pages and content you've already read? I see that the dashboard has percentages of the labs and learning materials. However, I don't see a page by page breakdown/progress of each individual page completed. I assume it's a user error and I'm missing something completely obvious. Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi all, We are in the process of introducing new learning paths which will supersede the manner in which a user's progress is tracked. The first stage of this should be in place within the next couple of months so the old way of manually marking learning material progress is being phased out (with this being the first step in the process).

I came here with the same question. That's not really convenient. I understand if a useful feature like this isn't available for a few days, while something new is wired up. But just disabling it, telling no one that this happening and just leaving it disabled for months until some replacement has found its way out of the dev den is a bit jarring. Moving fast and breaking things in all honor, but this isn't moving fast. This is just breaking things.
