Your Academy Resources can be a powerful tool for you to share knowledge with the members of your Academy. There are several options you have after uploading a piece of content into your Resources .
To access them, go to any item in your resources and click on More Info. A panel with more options will appear on the right.
-
Edit: Edit the content's name, description, tags, and language.
Please note that the languages of your items define the available filtering options in the Resources.
-
Imagine: Add an image, either by uploading a new one or by selecting an image already uploaded in the Resources.
-
Save: Save this content to a different category, to a specific course as a Lecture, or to another Academy.
Please note that you can save content to another Academy only if you are a member of this Academy and you have the needed permissions to upload content.
-
Share: Share this content with members or groups in your academy. To share the content, you will be redirected to a page where you can use individual, advanced, or group share (similar to the assignments page). You can also add a message if needed. The recipients will be notified with email notification.
-
Download: Download the item. This option is available for everyone who is able to see the content.
Please note that download is not available for web pages and web videos.
-
Delete: Delete the content item. There are two options available when deleting an item. You have the option to Delete the Resources Item and you have also the option to Delete the item from all Courses that it's part of as a lecture or supplemental material. Admins, Training Managers have this option available for all items. Managers can edit only the courses that they have permission to manage/update.
-
Subtitles: Upload subtitles if the content item is a video. Just upload the relevant file (ie. vtt, .srt). Please make sure that you have selected the language prior to uploading.
Please note that if the video is added to multiple courses, the subtitles will appear there as well.
-
Expiration Date: This option allows you to add an Expiration Date to the content. If you set an expiration date this content will be moved to the "Items in deleted categories" Category once this date passes.
Please note that the "Items in deleted categories" Category is an automatically created category. When a Resources category is deleted, all its items are moved to this category. The same applies to expired content. In this category, everyone can see the items they uploaded and they are able to delete them permanently or move them to another category. Admins are able to see all deleted items in this category.For items that are connected with courses, you also have the option to remove the course-connected file from the course once the resources item is expired. A checkbox is visible under the “Expiration date” field, which is named “Delete course files upon expiration”.
This checkbox only appears when an expiration date is added to an item and is by default unchecked. If checked, when the expiration date comes and the file is moved to the content deleted folder, if this file is part of a course (as a lecture or supplemental material), then the lecture or supplemental will be deleted. -
Copy to Category: This option allows to you copy the selected item and add it to another Category.

QR Code: This option will provide you with a QR code that you can share with members of your Academy. Once you select this option, a PDF will be downloaded with the QR code included. As with the link, the recipient must log in before viewing the content.
