When you're satisfied with the setup, click **Publish** to proceed.

2\. **Resolve Content Issues Before Publishing** Before the course is published, the system will automatically validate the structure and content. If any issues are detected, you’ll see a **“Fix These Problems to Publish the Course”** message listing the required changes. Common issues include: - **Test Blocks** with no questions, missing answers, or no correct answer selected. - **Assignment**, **Peer-to-Peer**, or **Group Task Blocks** with incomplete settings. - **Empty Sections** with no content blocks.

### Two Ways to Provide Course Access There are two main ways to give users access to your course. The key difference between them is whether or not you already know who your learners are. #### **Option 1: You Don't Know Your Users** This method is ideal when you're targeting a general audience—for example, through marketing campaigns, public promotions, or lead generation. - You share a **direct course link** with your audience. - Users can **register or pay** on their own to access the course. - You do **not need to know their email addresses** in advance. This option works well for: - Free or open-access courses - Lead magnets - Promotional campaigns #### **Option 2: You Know Your Users** Use this method when you already have a list of students and their email addresses. - You **invite users directly** through the system. - They receive an **email notification** and gain immediate access to the course upon login. - You can also use **Groups** to add multiple users at once.

8
4. Copy the generated link.

5. Click **Save** to apply the changes. **Important:** The link will not work until the changes are saved.

Now, anyone with the link can access the course, even without an account. This is ideal for public or open-access content.
11
Time for setting up **Option 2: You Know Your Users** For users already registered in the system, there are two main ways to grant access: **Manually Add Users:** - Go to **Courses > User Access**.
12
