Once your course is created, you can populate it with content using our 3-level hierarchical structure:

Tips

• Promo Codes: Boost your sales by offering discounts. See the Promo Codes Guide for full instructions.
• Content Visibility: In the course settings, you can toggle whether students see "Closed" (locked) lectures. If turned off, these lectures will be completely hidden from their view until you unlock them.
• Organize with Chapters: Breaking down your course into clear chapters helps students follow the material more easily.
• Copy Course Link: Use the "Copy Link" feature to share your course directly on social media or with your students.
• Active Website: Ensure your website is active in the settings before sharing links.
