Publishing & Unpublishing

Control when your courses are visible to students.

Publishing a Course

To make a course visible to students:

  1. Open the course in the Content Manager
  2. Click the Publish button in the top-right corner
  3. The course will appear in the student catalog immediately

Unpublishing a Course

To temporarily hide a course from students:

  1. Open the course in the Content Manager
  2. Click the Unpublish button
  3. The course will no longer appear in the catalog

Unpublishing does not delete any data. The course and all its lessons are preserved. You can republish at any time.

Publishing Checklist

Before publishing a course, verify:

  • [ ] Course title and description are complete and accurate
  • [ ] A thumbnail image has been uploaded
  • [ ] At least one lesson is created and published
  • [ ] Lessons are in the correct order
  • [ ] Video links (if any) are working
  • [ ] Level and skills are set appropriately

Lesson Publishing

Lessons must also be published individually. A published course with unpublished lessons will show the course in the catalog, but unpublished lessons won't appear in the lesson list.

Best practice: Publish all lessons first, then publish the course.
