Manage course

How to Access

1. Open the Online Course app
2. Click Courses in the main menu
3. The Courses list page appears at /app/courses

Page Sections

Search and filters

Tools to narrow down the list when you have many courses. Best for: finding a specific course quickly in a large catalog.

• Search — type a course name; results update after a short delay
• Status filter — All, Draft, or Published
• Sort — Newest, Oldest, Name A–Z, or Most students

Course table

The main list of courses with one row per course. Best for: scanning the catalog and jumping to edit pages.

• Thumbnail — 16:9 image, placeholder if missing
• Course name — click to open the edit page
• Status — Published or Draft badge
• Students — total number of enrolled students
• Created — date the course was created
• Actions — menu with Edit, Duplicate, and Delete

Empty state

The message shown when no courses exist or when filters return no results. Best for: guiding new users or telling you to clear filters.

• No courses yet: "No courses yet. Start by creating your first course."
• No search results: "No courses match your search. Try clearing filters."

Row Actions

Edit

Opens the course edit page so you can change content, modules, lessons, and settings.

• Click Edit in the row action menu, or click the course name
• No confirmation needed

Duplicate

Creates a copy of the course as a new Draft.

• The new course is named "Copy of [original name]"
• All modules, lessons, and content are copied
• Students and enrollments are not copied
• The Shopify Product link is not copied

Delete

Permanently removes the course and all related data.

• All modules, lessons, and enrollments are deleted
• The linked Shopify Product is set to Draft, not deleted
• If the course has enrolled students, you must type the course name to confirm

Publishing or Unpublishing

Publishing a course

1. Open the course in edit mode
2. Confirm it has a title, at least one Published lesson, and (if Private) a linked Shopify Product
3. Click Publish at the top right
4. A success toast appears with a link to view the course on your storefront

Unpublishing a course

1. Open a published course
2. Click Unpublish at the top right
3. The course returns to Draft and disappears from the storefront for new visitors
4. Students who already enrolled keep their access and progress

Important Rules

• The list shows 20 courses per page; use pagination to see more
• Deleting a course cannot be undone — students lose access immediately
• Duplicating always produces a Draft so you can edit safely before publishing
• Publishing fails with a clear error if the course has no title, no Published lesson, or no linked Shopify Product (when Private)
• Unpublishing does not revoke existing enrollments; students can still finish the course
• If the linked Shopify Product is deleted outside the app, the course automatically returns to Draft
