[edx-code] Self-managed course creation

2016-10-11 Thread Erik Van de Water
I may have some confusion about some basics of how self-managed edX installations work. The documentation hasn't solved the problem. First, I suppose, is where I create courses. Do I create courses on my installation or using the studio provided by studio.edge.edx.org? If I create it locally,

I have a user set as staff using the Django admin panel. But when I log into this account, the dashboard appears the same as that of a non-staff account (there are no buttons to create or edit a course). Also, the course creator admin table that should be available at /admin/course_creators/co

[edx-code] Sharing content between multiple courses?

2016-10-18 Thread Erik Van de Water
I am trying to make multiple courses with highly similar but not quite the same content in each of them - each course is specialized to a specific audience. I have 3 audiences: account managers, accountants, and sales people, and each needs to share about 80% of core content, with about 20% bei

Ok I found a good middleground. I'll use an automatically assigned cohort to handle most of the sign ups and then use a manual assignment after for anyone that doesn't fit in the default bucket. Thanks! On Tuesday, October 18, 2016 at 9:50:57 AM UTC-4, Erik Van de Water wrote: &

[edx-code] Changing footer navigation links

2017-02-22 Thread Erik Van de Water
I am trying to change the links in the navigation for the footer. I have set my site root correctly so it shows mysite.com/donate for the donate link instead of localhost/donate, but this is still insufficient since my site doesn't have a donate page, or a blog page, and the about page is unde
