How do I duplicate, delete, or hide courses?

Created by Carolina Martin, Modified on Tue, 16 Dec, 2025 at 10:42 PM by Carolina Martin

Go to Administration Tools in your course. You can duplicate a course to reuse it for a new cohort, delete it permanently, or hide it from public search while keeping it accessible via direct link. This flexibility helps you manage content with ease. 


The Administration Tools section provides guidance on managing user access, branding, system settings, and advanced platform features. These tools are designed to give administrators full control over how courses are delivered, tracked, and customised across the organisation.

Accessing Course Settings

  • Navigate to your course in Course Editor view.
  • Click the gear icon (⚙️) next to the Edit Course button in the top-right corner.



Duplicate a Course

The Duplicate feature lets you create a copy of an entire course, which will appear in your Drafts. This is a valuable time-saving tool when you want to reuse an existing course structure.



You might use it to:

  • Build a shorter or condensed version of a course
  • Tailor the same content for a different audience or language level
  • Experiment with changes without affecting the original course

Duplicating a course helps streamline course creation while maintaining consistency across programs.


Delete a Course

The Delete function allows you to permanently remove a course from your drafts or course list. This is useful if the course is no longer needed or was created by mistake.



When you click Delete, a confirmation message will appear to ensure the action is intentional. You can choose to cancel at this stage if needed. 


A close up of a message AI-generated content may be incorrect.


Note: Use this option with care, as deleted courses cannot be recovered



Hide a Course from Search

If you prefer to keep a course hidden from search results, you can use the Hide in Search option. This prevents others from discovering the course until you're ready to share it. When you're ready to make the course visible again, simply click Make Visible to restore its discoverability.
