Communities

Communities provide a space for collaboration between instructors, managers, and learners within your site. Depending on your version of the platform, your site may support up to six types of communities: Site, Category, Program, Course, Material, and User Group.


By enabling communities in Site Settings, you can add them when creating categories, programs, courses, materials, or user groups.

Communities can include the following features:

  • Forums: Threaded conversations with options to reply, start new threads, and like posts.
  • Media Galleries: Upload audio, images, and video with like and comment features.

    • Upcoming Events: Option to sort upcoming events
    • Past Events: Option to sort past events
