Links to official Memrise courses

johnastsang

Probably as an action to push users to their "new experience", Memrise has unlisted all their official courses, as announced here:

https://memrisebeta.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/17076424087057-Can-I-opt-out-of-the-new-Memrise

"Please note you will not be able to enrol in any official content in the Classic experience as this now lives in the new experience. You should only return to the Classic experience to learn community-created courses."

Courses that have been enrolled are still accessible, but users can no longer search for official courses in the course catalogue for enrollment (i.e. unlisted). This has caused me troubles - I've just finished Portuguese (Portugal) 2 for English speakers and would like to continue with the 3rd course. While it's possible to do so here on MLWL, I'm more accostumed to the Memrise interface and would like to keep using "legacy Memrise" for as long as possible. Does anyone here have the link to that course? It would even be better if anyone could list out the links to all official courses.

OK so I've found a way to bypass this:

The link to Portuguese (Portugal) 2 is https://app.memrise.com/community/course/1121958/portuguese-portugal-2/

With the course number "1121958", I guessed the number for the 3rd course was "1121959". I was right, but without having previously enrolled in that course, I'd be redirected to https://www.memrise.com/en/learn-portuguese/portuguese-course from https://app.memrise.com/community/course/1121959/. However, one could get into that course and start learning with the link https://app.memrise.com/aprender/learn?course_id=1121959/. But it seems that it won't appear on Dashboard. Cheers!

johnastsang I had looked up the number before, but was in the process of checking it out because I couldn't get in through the link. I am glad to hear that you have solved the problem.

When I researched Arabic courses before, some of the numbers were not sequential.

Here is a list of IDs I have researched.

7shi Wow you're amazing! Thank you! How did you do so?

johnastsang Last year, when I still had access to them, I collected links from Memrise teaching.

I am pleased to say that I can still learn and revise on the official 1 to 7 courses (Italian & French) on the MemRise App for Android.

I particularly like the » "Learn with Locals" « feature.

@johnastsang and @7shi Thanks, this is super helpful 🙂 Maybe I can quickly download the levels for all of the delisted official courses before they're gone for good! 🙂

NewLandRise

The list is missing yoruba courses:

5812133 (english)
5817156 (english-us)
5817373 (english)
5817413 (english-us)

It looks like I've probably already grabbed all of the basic course details (name, picture, author, levels, etc.) for all of the Memrise courses, which is good news! 🙂 I count 1,393 courses with the author "Memrise" (author 2224242), which is more than I expected.

neoncube

It looks like I had already downloaded vocabulary for about half of the old official Memrise courses (yay! 🙂).

I was able to download most of the vocabulary for the other half of the courses, but it looks like some of the courses might be totally gone (not even accessible via the /learn link):

2020890: English (UK) 1 for Spanish (Spain) speakers
2024268: English (UK) 2 for Spanish (Spain) speakers
2022111: Italian 1 for English speakers
2022113: Italian 2 for English speakers
2156808: English (UK) 1 for Italian speakers
2157569: English (UK) 2 for Italian speakers
2156815: French 1 for Spanish (Spain) speakers
2156826: French 2 for Spanish (Spain) speakers
2157608: English (UK) 2 for Japanese speakers
2157656: English (UK) 1 for German speakers
2157658: English (UK) 2 for German speakers
2190187: English (UK) 1 for Russian speakers
2190189: English (UK) 2 for Russian speakers
2190260: English (UK) 1 for Korean speakers
2190266: English (UK) 2 for Korean speakers
5535886: Chinese (Simplified) 1 for Japanese speakers
5535887: Chinese (Simplified) 2 for Japanese speakers
5686378: Korean 1 for Japanese speakers
5686379: Korean 2 for Japanese speakers

neoncube I have the data for those courses. I can give them to you, but I would like to discuss with you how to do it because of the amount of data.

neoncube

7shi Oh, yay! 🙂

Can you send me an email at eliblack3@hotmail.com? I'm getting ready to head to bed, but I'll check it tomorrow, God willing 🙂

Are the courses data dumps from Eltaurus' CourseDump tool?

7shi

neoncube I've sent you an email. I am using a modified version of his tool. It is basically the same, but I modified the file names because the original spec was too long and difficult to handle.

Good night! 🌙

7shi Thanks! 🙂

It seems that I am forever posting right before I go to bed! XD Goodnight again 🙂

I miss the following memrise course here in MLWL

Advanced English (C1, C2)

Ang I just ran the improved migration script on English <-> English courses, and it cloned a bunch more courses, but it looks like that one still wasn't cloned. I think I need to redownload some of the images in that course. Let me see what I can do 🙂

Goodnight, all! 🙂

Olaf.Rabbachin

That's a course I have been supporting for a few years. According to Memrise, it has 310k learners, so it's rather popular.

Ang

Olaf.Rabbachin Thank you for supporting this course, I like it! Part of the course I transfered into English-German. 😉

Ang

I know you have much to do, but I still miss this course and this one too Upper-intermediate English, Cambridge University Press. Maybe you can find and transfer them. Thank you!

neoncube

Ang Ah, it looks like Upper-intermediate English is an unlisted course. I've added it to the list of courses to migrate 🙂

neoncube

Ang Upper-Intermediate English has been migrated! :D

neoncube

@[deleted] Just wanted to let you know that it looks like these two courses still require further improvements to the migration script before they can be migrated:

Getting close, though! 🙂
