Edit default carousels
Order the carousels
The Carousels feature in Admin Portal now allows you to reorder, not only the custom carousels (created by the user), but also the default carousels (which work automatically).
To do this enter Admin Portal and access the Carousels section, under Settings. You will see a list of all the carousels of the instance, both default and customized. On the left side of each one there is an icon of a row of dots, click on one of them and drag the carousel to change its order in the list. The changes are automatically saved, if you go to Learner Portal you will see that the order has changed as well.
The new layout is also applied in the side menu, although here carousels will always be grouped in two blocks:
- The upper one for Keep learning, Required and My list
- The lower one for the rest of the carousels
Featured carousel cannot be moved, it must always be at the top of the page.
Learning Programs will still appear at the bottom of the page, after the rest of the carousels.
Edit the carousel title
The Carousels feature also allows you to edit the title of the carousel, including the default carousels. To do this go back to the list of carousels, click on the three dots to the right and select the Edit option.
In the pop-up window enter the new title in the Name box. A warning at the top reminds you which of the carousels you are editing. In the lower list you can add alternative titles in any of the Languages supported by the platform, to be displayed in case the student profile is set up in that language.
If you are editing a customized carousel (created by the user) you will also see the Image button, which allows you to add a header image that will be displayed when accessing the carousel. Remember to click on Save to apply the changes. If the modified carousel is a default one, in the list you will also see the original name in brackets.
Hide carousels
You can also hide some of the carousels so they will not be displayed in the Learner Portal. To do this go back to the list of carousels, click on the three dots to the right and select the option Hide carousel.
The carousel will no longer be visible in the Learner Portal, in the same Administrator Portal you can also know if a carousel is visible or hidden thanks to the eye icon on the left side. To make a carousel visible again, select the Show carousel option.
My list carousel cannot be hidden, as it is linked to the student's choice to add content to his list.
