How to update your Courses

AKA the “Context & Calibration” Set Up

  • If you create a new course, you currently need to “publish” a video in the first “lesson” in order to be able to update the main description, a welcome video does the trick nicely. Once the course is live, you can move it out of the first “lesson” or module. But by the time you need to do this, they might have fixed the glitch!

  • To change a video cover of a “lesson”, follow these steps:

    • Select “Edit Video”

    • Toggle on “Custom Featured Image”

    • Either drop in cover or look for cover in the Library

  • Workaround comments functionality: Add a Form Block and add Comments manually (until this feature becomes available). Make sure you name the form so that you can find where the comments come from easily when it hits your inbox and make sure the storage is set to your email.

How to update your Retreats

You have a few different pages in the Retreats section:

  • A Retreats Homepage, which is useful if you’re advertising several retreats or in-person events at the same time.

  • Individual Retreat page (you can an old one as duplicate as a template

  • The “store” which is how you can sell the Retreat spaces as “products”.

Photography Guidelines

Key points to format your images before upload:

  • Only .jpg, .gif, or .png

  • 2500 pixels width is ideal in most cases.

    You don't need to resize your images if they're wider than 2500px and meet our other specifications. Images less than 1500px wide may appear blurry.

  • Use images 500 KB or less to help your site load quickly.

  • RGB

  • Name with key words
