Courses Not Showing in Team Folders Despite Manager Permissions
Hello!
Despite trying to change all sharing settings that we can, I cannot actually see courses in Team folders. Even when:
- We change the Team Folder/subfolder to make Everyone a Manager
- We change the settings in the individual course to make me a Manager
While I can see the courses in my Shared with Me area, when I actually click the folders on the left there is nothing:
We were hoping that simply setting the folders as "Everyone is Manager" would be enough to inherit the settings to the courses AND see them in the folder, but according to this question this actually has no impact on the settings of any of the content in the folders. (I actually don't understand what the point of Folder Sharing settings is then?)
How can we set settings so I can actually see content my team makes in Team folders and not just in Shared with Me unorganized?
Thank you!
I did, thank you!
I was given the answer (in case anyone comes back to this thread) thanks to Robert.
By default, the filter in the upper right is set to only show you content "Owned by Me". This means you cannot see anything but your own content, even if you have Manager access of it! So please flip this switch.
Second, it appears the thread I linked was incorrect, and overarching folder settings DO influence the settings of the courses placed in them. I have a folder I am the Owner of, and all courses in that folder appear to give me Manager permissions.
Robert did a great job!
I will be submitting an idea to allow this to be changed as a default setting if someone chooses. It will be a bit annoying to always select Owned by anyone for every session - would love if I could switch the default!
