In short

Give your course a title and create it; it starts as a draft, so nobody sees it until you publish.

Creating a course: open Courses, click New course, type a title and subtitle, choose a level and click Create course
  1. Open Courses in the admin menu, then click New course.

  2. Type a Title. A Subtitle is optional.

  3. Pick a Category and a Level if you want to.

  4. Look at the cover card on the right. Shuffle changes the colours, and Upload image uses your own picture.

  5. Click Create course.

  6. Your course opens as a draft on the Curriculum tab, ready for sections and chapters.

What happens next

  • Add sections and chapters in the Curriculum tab. See How do I add chapters and lessons?.

Good to know

  • The cover you see is saved when you create the course. You can change it later in the Settings tab.

  • Open the Category list and choose New category to make one on the spot.
