Content List And Filtering Content

Under the dashboard is a table that includes all the courses that you have access to. By default, the initial page view shows all available active content items the admin has access privileges for in a table. The table contains a list of courses, with five separate columns of information: the name, type, categories the content is included in, date of update and a quick button to access the Reporting page.

Number Of Courses Shown

Choose the number of content items that appear on one page of the table by clicking on the drop-down menu under the list of contents, next to the count of content pages. Choose between 10 – 300 rows.

Filtering And Search For A Course

Finding a certain course happens by inserting a part of or the whole name of the content under the Name field at the top of the table in the Name column, and possibly defining its type and the category of it from the other columns next to the name.

In the upper right corner above the table, there are three icons to help filter and sort the courses in the table and for adding content.
