In the Configuration area, there are several sections where you can set defaults and preferences for formal training. Let's see each of them.

Rooms

The rooms are the spaces destined to provide classroom training. You have to register the available rooms in the platform in order to have the possibility of assigning them to each classroom session.

...

  1. Go to "Rooms".
  2. Select a room.
    Anchor
    virtual
    virtual
  3. Select the "Reservation" tab. You can see the sessions which have reserved the room from this tab and, if you want so, you can delete the reservation by clicking on "Delete" within "Actions".

Virtual rooms

Virtual classrooms are the online spaces where Webconference sessions take place. These rooms are created in the platform by default. As an administrator you can deactivate the room so that nobody can reserve it. The virtual classroom is not deleted and you can activate it later.

...


You can see the reservations of a virtual classroom from this page. You just have to go to the "Reservations" tab.

Categories

As the platform is filled with activities, it gets more difficult to find the one we want to edit, to add a course, etc. The categories allow you to classify the elements of the platform according to your discretion in order to locate them easily.

...

To do this you simply need to complete the internationalisation fields, translating the name of the category into the languages we will use.

Extended fields

Other component focused on the customisation of the platform is the extended fields.

...

  1. Go to "Extended fields" and select one of them.
  2. Click on "Edit details".
  3. Modify the fields and select "Save changes".

Templates 

In this area we can easily create specific templates for the training certificates and to modify the access instructions for sessions.

Certificate template

You can create new, personalized templates that include your own designs and text, and you can configure versions in multiple languages for each template.

...

You can fully customize the text including variables and you can add a background image. You can also decide if you would like to include a business logo. 

Joining instructions template

To create an access instruction template, follow these steps:

...

  1. Go to "Notification settings", on the "Configuration" section.
  2. Click on "Edit Settings".
  3. Check on the right of each notification the option "Visible at inbox" or "Send by email" depending on how you want to receive the notification.

Changing the user interface

LMS Pack allows modifying the frontpage of the student and trainer interface. Thereby, we can create a frontpage where we can highlight the activities, courses, news from the company, etc. that we want to show the users.

...

The editor has three interactive fields which give the student the sensation of having a customised tool only for him or her (consult /wiki/spaces/ML/pages/4915218).

Remember
If the content is not enabled in a language, users who have the platform configured in that language will see the predefined frontpage (which has direct access to the Public Library and to the Announcements).

If you want to go back to the frontpage set by default anytime, go to "Editing block" and click on "Disable".

Look&feel

From "Look and feel" section, we can set multiple elements to change the appearance .

...

We can select different logotypes. Also a corporate colour, a header menu text colour and a student portal background colour can be selected.

Changing the settings

You can customise the platform with the logos and colours of your company. In addition, you can choose if you want the notifications sent to your user e-mail (besides the platform internal mailbox).
