Course Availability Basics
The process of changing the availability date of a course is a fundamental aspect of managing course availability in the dashboard. Course visibility settings and setting course access restrictions play a crucial role in controlling when and how customers can access a course. By adjusting the course availability date, instructors can determine when a course will go live and when it will no longer be accessible to customers. The dashboard provides a user-friendly interface for instructors to easily navigate and make changes to the availability settings. Instructors can set a future date and time for a course to go live or make a live course not accessible anymore by changing its status to ‘Draft’. This level of control allows instructors to effectively manage and optimize the visibility and accessibility of their courses.
Changing Course Availability
Changing the availability of a course can be easily accomplished by following a few simple steps in the dashboard. To set a future availability date for a course, click on the course’s status, which should be in the "Draft" state. Then, select "Publish" and choose a future date and time under the "Available at" section. Don’t forget to click "Apply" before updating the course. The status will change to "Publishing" and the hover-over date will reflect the new availability date. To correct the availability date, click on the "Publishing" status, scroll down, and click on "Edit Publishing". Select a new date and time, click "Apply", and then "Update Course". It is important to double-check the date and time before updating the course.
For managing course availability changes, it is beneficial to set a future availability date for courses. This allows for proper planning and promotion of the course. It is also recommended to follow best practices such as regularly reviewing and updating course availability dates to ensure accuracy. Additionally, it is important to communicate any changes in course availability to customers to avoid confusion and disappointment. By following these practices, course creators can effectively manage and control the availability of their courses, providing a seamless learning experience for their audience.
Correcting Availability Dates
To ensure accuracy and avoid confusion, it is important to promptly correct any errors in the availability dates of courses. Troubleshooting availability date errors is crucial for managing course availability for multiple courses. In the courses dashboard, if an incorrect date and time are selected for a course’s availability, it can be corrected by following a few simple steps. By clicking on the "Publishing" status, scrolling down, and selecting "Edit Publishing," a new date and time can be chosen. After clicking "Apply" and "Update Course," the corrected availability date will be displayed when hovering over the course. This allows course creators to maintain control over their course availability and ensure that customers have accurate information about when courses will be live. By promptly correcting availability date errors, course creators can provide a seamless and reliable experience for their customers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I change the availability date of multiple courses at once?
No, it is not possible to change the availability date of multiple courses at once. The course availability date can be changed individually for each course in the dashboard. To change the availability date, the course status needs to be changed to ‘Draft’ and then ‘Publish’. The availability date can be selected and updated for each course separately. This process needs to be repeated for each course that requires a change in availability date.
What happens if I accidentally publish a course with the wrong availability date?
In the event of accidentally publishing a course with an incorrect availability date, there are strategies for managing this mistake effectively. To undo the course publication, the user can change the course status back to ‘Draft’. By doing so, customers who had access to the course will no longer have access. To prevent this mistake in the future, it is important to double-check the availability date before updating the course. This ensures that the correct date is reflected in the course status.
Can I schedule a course to be available only on specific days of the week?
Yes, you can schedule a course to be available only on specific days of the week. This feature allows you to manage course enrollments and avoid scheduling conflicts. By selecting the desired availability dates and times in the course dashboard, you can ensure that the course is accessible to students only on specific days. This scheduling capability provides flexibility in designing and organizing your courses, allowing you to cater to the needs and preferences of your students while maintaining a structured learning environment.
Is there a way to notify my customers when a course becomes available?
To ensure an engaging and efficient customer experience, effective strategies for notifying customers about course availability can be employed. Automating course availability notifications is a recommended approach for improved customer satisfaction. By implementing automated systems, notifications can be sent to customers when a course becomes available, keeping them informed and engaged. This innovative solution streamlines the process, allowing instructors to focus on creating quality content while ensuring customers are promptly notified about course availability.
Can I set a course to be available for a limited time only?
Setting a course to be available for a limited time can have both pros and cons. On the positive side, limited time availability creates a sense of urgency and exclusivity, which can increase course enrollment. It also allows instructors to create a structured learning experience with a defined start and end date. However, there are also drawbacks. Limited time availability may limit accessibility for some potential students and could lead to missed opportunities for enrollment. To effectively utilize limited time availability, instructors can employ strategies such as offering early bird discounts, creating scarcity through limited spots, and promoting the time-limited nature of the course through marketing campaigns.
