Your learner site and sharing
The catalogue, course pages, how learners sign in, the player, sharing links and QR codes, your website, and your own web address.
Every business gets a learner site: a catalogue of published courses, a page for each course, the lesson player and My learning. The link is on Settings > Learner site.
The catalogue and course pages
- The catalogue lists your published courses with search and topics (make them on Settings > Topics), and your learning paths.
- A course page shows the cover, what learners will learn, the description, the lessons (free previews can be opened), the instructor, reviews and the price or join button. Search engines can read it as a course.
- Settings > Learner site sets the main colour, the catalogue heading and a line under it, and whether the business logo shows.
Who sees a course
On the course's Settings > Who can see and join:
- Who sees it - Everyone (in the catalogue), Signed-in learners only, or Hidden - only its learners see it.
- Who can join - Anyone can join, People ask to join (you approve), Only people you add, People pay to join (Standard and up) or Members with an active subscription (Professional and up, with the Subscriptions app).
- Staff only - not in the catalogue; people of your business take it (see Staff training).
How learners sign in
Learners type their email and get a sign-in link - no password to remember. The first time, the same link makes their free learner account.
On Settings > Learner site > Learner accounts you choose:
- Anyone can make a learner account from the catalogue - turn it off to take only people you add;
- Learners may set a password - they can always use an email link too;
- People of your business who are signed in to Ellibo are learners by themselves.
The player
The lessons on the side, the lesson in the middle, and the learner's progress. It works on any phone and remembers where they stopped. Preview on a course lets your team look at the lessons; nothing is saved for them.
Sharing
The course's Share tab has:
- the course page link, with sharing buttons;
- a QR code for slides and posters;
- a course card to paste into your own website.

Spam check and tracking
Settings > Learner site > More options:
- Sign-ups are guarded already; you can add Cloudflare Turnstile too (Business).
