Set Accessibility Settings for Courses

In this article, you’ll learn how to set accessibility settings for courses and see how they put restraints on your course.

To find course accessibility settings,  go to Courses -> All courses -> Edit (the course you want to see) -> Setting -> Course accessibility. From here, you can choose four different accessibility settings.

Public

Public courses are visible to students. That includes unregistered users also. Anyone can enroll in a public course.

Private

All registered/ unregistered users can see the private course, but no one can enroll without your approval. So, basically they give enrollment requests which you have to approve first.

To enroll the student, go to Deals & Sales -> Purchase Requests. Here, you’ll find all the requests not just of the courses but all other products in your online teaching platform. Anyways, click the three dots and click Enroll to complete student enrollment in your private courses.

Hidden 

These are hidden from the student's view. As the owner, you need to provide the course landing page link to students so that they can get enrolled. To find the landing page link, go to Courses -> All courses -> Edit -> Settings -> select Landing page and you can copy the URL from there.

[Note: Hidden courses are visible inside bundle courses.]

Restricted

Visible to everyone but no user can purchase the course or enroll.

But, it is accessible in bundle courses if you add them inside bundle courses.

Another option you’ll see is the Presell settings. If you are not a free online course maker, i.e., if your course is not free, then you can use Presell settings. You can prefer to set the charge method to immediate or later.

If Immediate option is selected, your students will be charged instantly upon pre-ordering.

And if Later option is selected, you can charge your students anytime you want post-purchase.
