At LearningSuite, we clearly distinguish between Courses in draft status and active (published) Courses.
This helps you as an admin keep track at all times of which Courses are already visible to Members and which are still being edited.
When is a Course active?
A Course only becomes active once you publish it.
Publishing creates a Course version optimized for Members.
This version exactly reflects the state you define at the time of publication.
Important to know
Changes you make to the Course do not affect the currently published version that your Members see.
This means:
You can edit and expand your Course at any time.
Members will only see these changes when you publish a new version.
This allows you to make adjustments without affecting ongoing Courses for Members.
Update the Course and publish a new version
As soon as you want your changes to be visible to Members, click “Update Course” in the top-right corner of the Course.
A Pop-up opens after you click.
There, you can view change histories and create a new Course version.
View change history
You will see an overview of the changes made.
Version name & internal version notes
The version name is used for your internal organization.
The internal version notes help you document your changes.
This information is visible exclusively to you as an admin.
Send a Course update email to Members
You can optionally send a Course update email to your Members.
To do this, activate the checkbox in the Pop-up.
A text field opens where you can add a custom text about your changes.
You can edit the basic template for the Course update email under
Settings → Email Settings.
There is a separate HelpCenter article about this.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our support team via the HelpCenter in the bottom-left corner. We typically respond within 5 minutes on weekdays from 09:00 to 17:00.
