Add an icon image
Every course needs an Icon image. It displays in rotator, grid, or list modules on your site so that users see it before they open a course. It also displays at the top of the course home page, unless you add a video. There, users see the image before they before users start the course.
If you don’t add an icon image, a default gray image displays instead.

[SCREENSHOT UI]
Add a video to introduce the course
You can optionally add a course Video. It displays at the top of the course home page, replacing the icon image. (Note that the icon image is still required because it also displays in other locations around the site.)
Users can watch this video before the course starts and even before they enroll. That’s why it’s a great way to introduce the course and explain what it’s about.
[SCREENSHOT OF HOME PAGE]
To insert a video:
Go to the bottom of the Course Info tab.
Under Video, paste a Course Video URL. It must be an MP4 video URL hosted by the JUNO team in our s3 bucket or hosted externally. It cannot be a Youtube, Vimeo, or Wistia link. For example:
https://i.imgur.com/0kHlMwm.mp4
[SCREENSHOT UI]
Create body content to introduce the course
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 users should know before they start.
