Course Settings

Each course consists of tabs where you can set up your preferences. They allow you to customize each course separately to fit your needs. In the course overview, you can find the following Course tabs

  • Layout Page: The cover of your course, which introduces your users to the content and allows your users to enroll.
  • Contents: You can create, edit, and supplement your course with valuable content with learning activities. 
  • Access: Select the course's access type, find the URL, and set up an expiration date or drip feed.
  • Pricing: Set up the course price and manage the related installment plans, Bundles, or Subscriptions.
  • Settings: Customize your course card, add the course to a category, and manage course SEO. 
  • Course Player: Change the course player skin, customize the course player, and specify the user navigation.
  • Video library: Upload videos.
  • Dashboard: View an overall report of your course

Course SEO

The main purpose of the SEO configuration for your courses is to make the course pages more easily discoverable by search engines and properly index their information.

Course Layout page Vs. Course player

The Course layout page is the welcome page of your course where users can find more information about the course, check the contents (according to the contents sections you have added), and enroll. If the course were a book, the layout page would be the book cover. 


The Course player is the classroom where the course takes place. As soon as a user enrolls in the course, the course content (learning activities you have created) appears in the course player.


Once you create the course, add the content, and set up your preferences, you are ready to start selling it. However, what about some more useful tips? Check out the following links:
