General platform improvements
Add Content from Google Drive
Now, you can add content from Google Drive to the NextThought learning platform. This will allow learners to access a shared document by clicking on the linked document within a course lesson.
To add a Google Document to your lesson:
- Within editing mode, click on the “+Add Content” button.
- Select the Google Drive option.
- Sign in to your Google Drive account.
- Select a document.
Note: Your file will need to have the appropriate sharing settings for others to view it.
Populate Website Information when Adding Links
Now, when adding links into a discussion, information about that link will automatically populate. You can remove the extra information by hovering over the image and selecting the “x” icon.
If you add a link to an image or video, the image or video will also automatically display.
Allow Rich Text in Course Description
Course descriptions will now allow rich text formatting such as line breaks and text stylization.
