Forums are available on all plans.

In the forums on ClassOnLive instructors and students can share comments, documents, and content, all in a thread to increase engagement among members of a training group.

Accessing the forums

When you create a course, you have the option to choose to create a forum associated with that course, so that every time a student registers for the course they are automatically associated and included in that forum.

You can access the forum:

1. Directly from the course

In "trainings", "created trainings" in the green "Actions" button of the course, you will see the option to "View forum".

2. From your left control panel

The "communications" option and the "forums I manage" option will appear:

From the green "Actions" button you have several options:

A) View forum: which you directly access the community

B) Modify

C) Delete: You directly delete the forum without deleting the course or the course attendees.

D) Members: See all the members of a forum. If you want to know how to delete a member you can see more here .

E) Promote: If you want to promote the forum on Social Networks.

F) Requests: When you create a forum it gives you the option to create a "closed" forum, through which you must accept the requests, which you do directly here or "open", meaning that anyone can be a member of the forum without having to be in the course beforehand.

Creating other forums

If you want to create more forums, simply go to the control panel in the "communications" section and choose "forums I manage" and in the orange button above select "create new forum" and simply fill in the fields.

NOTE: To see how students access to the forums, take a look here

NOTE 1: To see how to enable/disable notifications that students receive with the activity of each forum, read more here .

Within each forum you have the possibility to create categories and threads:
