Manage Miscellaneous Settings

The Miscellaneous Settings section gives you control over optional features in your Coursebox platform. Each toggle can be switched ON (enabled) or OFF (disabled), depending on how you want learners to interact with your courses and the platform.

1. Enable/Disable Discussions

• If enabled: Learners can use the discussion feature in the course editor.

• If disabled: The discussion feature is removed, and learners cannot post or participate in discussions.

• Use case: Enable if you want peer discussions and collaboration. Disable if you prefer to keep communication one-way or through assessments only.

2. Enable/Disable Surveys

• If enabled: Facilitators can add and run surveys inside courses to collect learner feedback.

• If disabled: The survey feature is hidden in the course editor.

• Use case: Enable if you want feedback or data collection. Disable if surveys are not part of your program.

3. Enable/Disable Public Courses

• If enabled: Courses can be published as public, allowing anyone to access them without enrollment.

• If disabled: Courses are only available to enrolled learners.

• Use case: Enable for open-access or promotional courses. Disable to keep courses private and restricted.

4. Enable/Disable Login Page

• If enabled: Users can log in through the Coursebox login page.

5. Enable/Disable Learner Interactions

• If disabled: Learners cannot:

  • Message each other (only approved experts who have messaged them before can continue).

  • View other learners’ profiles.

  • Change their email or name.

  • Delete their account.

• Use case: Enable if you want a social, collaborative environment. Disable if you want controlled, expert-only communication.
