Authoring
The authoring section provides authors with all necessary tools and little helpers for creating, editing and importing courses and other learning resources.
When you open the author section, your personal learning resources Favorites are displayed by default. Furthermore, it is possible to quickly switch to the display of one's own courses ("My courses"), one's own learning resources ("My entries") as well as to the search and to the deleted learning resources. Further filtering of the display is also possible. So also completely new filter queries, which are frequently needed, can be generated and saved.

Configure columns
Via the cogwheel you can select in a more differentiated way, which information will be displayed in the respective table. For example, in the column "Ref" you can see whether or how often a learning resource has been referenced in OLAT courses and you can jump directly to the corresponding course.
OpenOlat learning resources create and import
In the author section, the learning resources shown on the right can be created. Furthermore, learning resources and additional files can be imported, as well as URLs.
Each learning resource can be further configured in the "Settings" area of the administration. For example, metadata can be stored here and it can be defined who has access to the learning resource.
In the following chapters you will find explanations about the individual OpenOlat learning resources, which actions you can perform in the author section, and information about the info page of a learning resource.
