Fernando Mercês reacted to Marc Stridgen in Introducing Courses
Certainly not 🙂
Actually the "cloud only" part is a common misconception. It's not available on some cloud plans too.

No way. Courses is a relatively newer feature for Invision (Cloud only). All of the worthwhile competition community services also offer courses. Expect to see this remain and probably tweaked and developed even more.

Glad to be of assistance!

You would need to give your administrator group the ability to post HTML in the editor by going to ACP -> Members -> Groups -> edit group -> Can post HTML? You Then will see a Source button in the top left of the editor.
Please note: do not give this permission to anyone other than your staff which you absolutely trust as malicious things can be done with this.

The “Manual” option is not meant for a payment gateway. It’s meant for a manual payment by the customer. The shop owner would (for example) put their bank account details in that editor field and then the customer pays using that option.

Fernando Mercês got a reaction from David N. in Courses and Lessons
Great news! Here's what I suggest:
It'd be nice to have tests. We should be able to create questions using a WYSIWYG editor and set the correct answer(s) in advance. Students could retake the tests up to X times if they fail (score < Y). +1 for certificates. Ability to limit how long the student has access to the course (6 months, 1 year, lifetime, etc). Bulk mail to all course participants. Set one or more users as instructors. Set one or more users as teaching assistants / moderators (like in Clubs). Students should be able to "follow" the course to receive notifications when things get updated (content, new classes, etc). Sysadmins should be able to convert a database entry to a Course (to keep pageviews, ranking, comments, etc). Thank you!

We are currently in the beginning stages of developing a Courses and Lessons application within Invision Community. This will only be available on our cloud services as a value addition.
We receive regular requests for Learning Management System (LMS) capabilities in Invision Community and the Courses app will start us down that path.
The Courses app is not going to try to be a full LMS. Not trying to run a university here 🙂
But we do think there is value in offering basic LMS capabilities within a community context. Some features we are already doing:
Ability to create Courses with multiple Modules Modules can have multiple content items that a member can read/engage (articles, videos, discussions) Courses can be made optional or required. Required courses can be defined as "do this first" or literally required as in you must take course within X days of joining community. Badges/points awarded on various completion events. Reports for those who enroll and/or complete a Course. Reports can be exported to CSV. As this is early development we are open to ideas and suggestions.
How might you use Courses?
What capabilities would you want to see?

Fernando Mercês got a reaction from OptimusBain in IPB as a LMS
Here's a few:
Rate courses. Tests / scoring. Enrollment (like joining a club). The possibility of accessing lesson 2 only after finishing lesson 1, like Udemy does. Embed videos (YouTube, Vimeo, etc). Top students (highest score). I consider a basic LMS a must in today's world. People need to share stuff. The pandemic ruined lots of face to face businesses, but e-learning courses increased massively.
Thanks,
Fernando

No problem. It's just a dream. 🙂
Maybe one day, maybe not. No worries. Invision is still the best and that's why I keep "hacking" it to do things it doesn't do natively. It always worth because the things Invision do natively are very well done. 😉

Could you explain the tests part? Like a quiz feature for specific lessons ?

Fernando Mercês reacted to CoffeeCake in "Server time may be inaccurate" warning in ACP
This means that the actual clock on your server appears to have drifted (in other words, it's 5:01 pm UTC right now, but your server's clock may be set to 5:45 pm or 4:30 pm, etc.). Make sure you are running something like NTP on your server.
This message is not regarding your timezone.

Fernando Mercês got a reaction from evcom in Language in Bulk and Digest Mails tied to AdminCP language?
Hi @evcom. I just wanted to say thank you for coming back here and posting the solution. I had the same issue and never realized why. Thanks!

Fernando Mercês reacted to evcom in Language in Bulk and Digest Mails tied to AdminCP language?
Done and fixed. There was nothing wrong with the setup or the software itself. Here the answer from Invision Support:
So when checking my admin e-mail account, the language labels were in the language of the ACP. Checking inboxes of test-users revealed that the labels were in the same language as the used frontend language.
