Saving a Draft
When creating a new course, or editing an existing one, all changes made in the builder are automatically treated as a draft.
Each course can have two versions:
Draft: The working version in the builder where changes are made.
Published: The live version that learners can access.
Publishing
To publish your changes:
In the course builder, click Save and Exit.
When you return to the course details page, a confirmation dialog will appear asking whether you want to publish your changes.
Click Publish Draft Content to make the draft the published version.
If you are not ready to publish, close the dialog by clicking the X or anywhere outside the dialog.
If you dismiss the dialog without publishing, the Re-Publish button will appear on the course summary panel.
Re-Publish
When admins see Re-Publish, below the button is text 'You have draft content ready to publish'. This indicates that the draft contains unpublished changes and the published version is still being shown to learners.
Changes made in the builder are saved to the Draft version of the course. Learners will not see these changes until they are published.
The Re-Publish button is used to:
Publish the current draft, making the latest changes available to learners.
Return the course to Draft, (select the dropdown) allowing you to make changes that are not yet visible to learners.
Place the course in an Archived state (select the dropdown) if the course is no longer required, but Admin does not wish to delete it from the library.
When you publish a course, the current draft becomes the new published version.
