Modified on Tue, Dec 6, 2022 at 9:11 AM

When creating or teaching a course it’s important to get real time feedback from your students/participants. This allows you to know how effective your course is. Providing feedback to your students/participants is also critical for their performance and learning.

By adding comments to your membership section, you can create and foster an engaged learning environment. Follow along to learn how to manage your membership comments.

Part 1: Understanding Each Feature

Starting with an understanding of each feature - enabled, hidden and locked, you will be able to determine what is best for your system.

  • Enabled: will be visible on the page and will show existing comments in the thread. This will give your students the ability to add new comments.
  • Hidden: will not be visible on the page and will not show existing comments in the thread.
  • Locked: this feature will remove the ability for your students to add new comments, however, the existing comments will still be visible, which is where this varies from “hidden”.

Part 2: Enabling, Hiding, and Locking Membership Comments
