Hi LingQ / Zoran
Just opened email link for windows desktop beta (chrome) this morning so apologies if I’ve missed something as new to beta.
I was looking for the ‘Notes’ resource for lessons that I have shared, and could not find notes for several lessons where I know I had created notes in v4. I tried to create NEW lesson and did not see option there to create notes?
Please can you advise as I have added numerous notes on lessons in several recent courses that I have shared.
Thanks

Hi
Some progress … some trail and lots of error! … I have worked out how to add a single note to a single sentence in a new lesson.
It seems we do not have a ‘single page/notes view’ from within the lesson on v5.0 as we do in v4, and ‘notes’ are linked to sentences, and you can only see these ‘individual’ notes when you go into the ‘sentence view’.
Is there a way you can put a few paragraphs of general notes which apply to the ‘whole lesson’ - as we did in v4 which can be seen from the ‘lesson’ view … ???
Thanks for any further feedback.
Frank
Hi Zoran / LingQ
Question on NOTES resource and Source URL not showing correctly
Please could you kindly advise if there will be a ‘full page’ NOTES resource function available in 5.0 as we had in v4?
I can see that it is possible to add an individual note to a sentence, but this does not look suitable to some detailed notes or summary which may be relevant to the whole lesson.
I have added many notes to this particular course … “Velkommen til LearnNoW (Norwegian on the Web)”
Will the version 4 ‘notes’ pages/resource be lost when the lesson are all finally converted to version 5?
Also I noticed that the 5.0 ‘Lesson information” link does not accurately reflect the ‘Source URL’ visible on the edit page? It only points back to the whole course info page again and not the actual “Source URL” which would be NTNU link in this case?
Thank you
Best regards, Frank
Sorry about the late reply here. Yes, lesson notes feature has been removed in LingQ 5.0. It is no longer available. You can now add notes for specific sentences only.
Regarding the Source URL, we will look into it, that sounds like a bug. Thanks for letting us know.
Hi Zoran / LingQ
That’s a pity. I found this very useful and added a lot of summary supplemental notes and explanations which were related to the ‘whole lesson’ as opposed to one sentence, specially for a recent Norwegian course I had shared. But, Never mind, I will adapt to new functionality ![]()
(I tried to add few sentences to the ‘Lesson title’ in sentence view, but it just strung all the sentences together and there was no separation as such, so not practical to do it that way either unless it is a one-sentence specific note).
Thanks for v5.0 … Feeling very optimistic, and I’m personally very pleased with what you have there already,
Well Done LingQ team!!
