Edit Course Metadata

You can easily edit your course metadata from the Courses tab. You may need to update your course metadata for one of the following reasons:

To correct a spelling error.
To change the title of the custom course.
To create a unique course ID for the custom course.

The following are not eligible for metadata editing:

Courses that have not been published to a preview or production site
Preview sites are only available if they have been enabled by your administrator.
KC/SLA content
CCT courses

To edit course metadata

On the Courses tab, locate the course whose metadata you want to edit.
In the Action column, click Actions > Edit next to the desired course.
- If the metadata for the course is not editable, the Edit link will not be active.
A dialog box displays the preview (if enabled) or production site(s) that the course has been published to.
Select the desired site and click OK. Note that if there is only one item in this list, it is selected automatically.
The Publish File Data page displays the metadata information prepopulated with the existing course metadata.
Make the desired changes to course metadata in any of the editable fields and click Next.
A Preview Metadata page displays the edited course metadata.
Click Submit to update these changes to your course on your Skillport site, or click Back to edit the metadata again.
An Update metadata result page displays stating that the metadata has been successfully updated. Note that if the update fails, an error message displays. An email notification is automatically sent to the user who performed the course metadata update confirming the status of the update, which will either be a success or failure message. You can also see a record of this change in the following two locations:
- Courses tab: The metadata updates are listed in the Last Modified By and Last Modified Date fields.
- Publish tab: The metadata updates are listed in the Notifications column.
After your updates are complete, you can do one of the following:
- Click Update another site to update this same course on another Skillport site.
- Click Back to Courses to return to the Courses tab.
- The Edit option is turned on by default. However, if you do not see this option, it has not been enabled on your site.
