Content Folder
Learning Manager supports private content folders. An Administrator can configure private content folders and provide its access to specific custom-authors using Custom Roles. Note that Standard Authors (also called as Full Authors) continue to have access to all the content in the account. Hence Full Authors have access to all folders and all the content.
Content Folders can be configured by Administrators. Only once configured, content folders become visible to authors and they get an ability to place the content in one or multiple folders.
To add a content folder, in the Administrator app, click Settings > Content Folder.
Change Content Folder settings
Folder
A folder is a repository of content, which is a subset of the entire content library available in an account with the following properties:
- Only an Admin can create, edit, or delete a folder.
- An Admin can control access to folders as part of defining roles only for custom admins.
- Content must at all times, be associated with at least one folder. To start with, all content will be associated with the Public folder, which can later be changed.
- Content can be associated with multiple folders at the time of creation, which will also be possible by a copy operation
- All folder names must be unique within the account, otherwise there will be an error in naming a folder.
Folders only control visibility of content and don’t create copies of content. Therefore, editing content will reflect in all the associated folders.
Public folder
A public folder is always present in an account and initially, all content will be part of this folder. Later, authors can move content out of this folder into other folders. A public folder has the following properties:
- All content associated with this folder will be accessible to all types of authors, by default.
- Any content that is a part of a public folder, cannot be part of any other folder. The converse also holds true.
This folder cannot be part of configurable role definition. Consequently, not having a public folder in configurable role definition doesn’t restrict access to a public folder.
Private folder
- Any folder created by an Admin is a private folder.
