The dashboard serves as your platform homepage. This generally includes all of the information and modules that you want your users to access quickly.
The layout of your dashboard is set out in rows and blocks. You can include a maximum of 10 widgets.
There are several kinds of widgets that you can insert into a dashboard. Let’s take a look at all of them.
Activity Overview
The Activity Overview widget shows statistics about the user’s activity, such as the number of courses in which the user is enrolled as well as the number of Completed, In Progress and Not Started courses.
Activities Stream
The Activities Stream widget displays the latest platform activities performed by the user, such as the latest attended courses, and comments.
Catalogues
The Catalogues widget shows the list of the courses the users can purchase or to which they can subscribe. Catalogues are defined within the Catalogues App.
Courses & Learning Plans
This widget lists all of the courses and/or learning plans in which the user is enrolled. You can either show all the courses and learning plans, courses only or learning plans only.
