How to see the academy from a participants' point of view
In order to see your academy from the participants' point of view and to optimise and design it, it may be worth entering the preview mode from time to time. This can be done for the landing page of the academy, selected courses or lessons.
Preview mode does not require you to be signed into the academy as a participant. There, you have full view over the courses, even if they are marked as non-public (private). The preview mode is signaled via a banner at the top of the page. By clicking on Close preview, the preview mode is closed and the academy is shown from a visitor's point of view. Is the preview mode open in another window of the same browser, preview mode is entered automatically when entering the academy URL.
Preview mode is always entered via the following field, which can appear in varying places of the admin area:
Caution: In preview mode, no learning progress is saved. For instance, the percentage of contents completed in a course is not shown or whether a quiz lesson has been completed successfully.
