Another way to introduce the course is with additional text, images, and videos. The course Body is the area below the main icon image or video on the course home page. Users can view this content before the course starts and even before they enroll. That’s why it’s a great way to introduce the course and share anything you need users to should know before they start.

titleRemove formatting from copy/pasted text

When you copy and paste text from another text editing program or website, it sometimes brings along unwanted text formatting from its original location. There are two ways to fix this:

  • Before pasting the text, open the Edit menu and select Paste as text. A checkmark appears, indicating that the setting is turned on. Now, select Paste to paste your text, free of formatting.

  • Or after pasting text, highlight it and open the Format menu. Select Clear formatting. This doesn’t always clear some types of formatting, so it may be less reliable than the first option.
