Linking Courses to Groups
This task connects Sensei courses to a BuddyPress group so the group shows a Courses tab and can post course activity for its members.
Prerequisites
Section titled “Prerequisites”- BuddyPress is active with the Groups component.
- On the Sensei BuddyPress Integration tab, both Enable BuddyPress Group Integration and Enable Course Visibility are on. See Configuring settings.
- You are an administrator or a Sensei teacher. Only these roles see the course picker.
Associate courses with a group
Section titled “Associate courses with a group”The course picker appears on three screens:
- The group create flow (course step).
- The group front-end Manage screen.
- The group’s settings screen in wp-admin.
On any of these screens:
- Find the course selector (a search field labeled to start typing a course name).
- Type part of a course title and pick the course from the matches. Repeat to add more courses.
- Choose which course-activity types the group should post, if the group activity option is enabled.
- Save the screen.
Saving stores the selected course IDs on the group
(reign-sensei-courses), the group’s activity enablement
(reign-sensei-group-course-is-enable), and the enabled activity types
(reign-sensei-groups-courses-activities). Each selected course also gets the
group’s ID written to its reign-sensei-groupid meta.
Result
Section titled “Result”- A Courses tab appears in the group’s navigation and lists the associated courses. If a group has no associated courses, no tab is shown.
- When course activity is enabled, member enrolments, completions, and quiz submissions post to the group’s activity stream. See Activity Feed.
- The course picker searches only published courses.
- The Courses tab and the picker are hidden entirely when either the group integration or the course visibility setting is turned off.
