Settings
The Settings section in CourseLayer provides essential configuration options for managing your platform.
While most settings can be adjusted later, some should be configured early to ensure smooth functionality.
Key Settings
Highly Recommended Setup
- API Keys – Required to connect your frontend to CourseLayer.
- Without an API key, your frontend cannot communicate with the platform.
- If you plan to process payments, you must also configure Stripe API keys.
- Redirects – Helps direct users to the correct pages after actions like:
- Sign-up
- Login
- Password reset
Other Configurable Settings
- Subscription Plan – Displays your active subscription plan (set up during account creation).
- Invoice History – Provides access to past billing records.
- Team Members – Manage additional admin users for your account.
- Categories – Organize your courses for better discoverability.
- Tags – Add searchable metadata to courses.
- Instructors – Manage instructor profiles.
- Custom Fields – Allows additional data fields for courses.
- While they can be managed in this section, they are best created in the course context.
