Add a rich text page
In some courses, you can add a new content page to your course menu and format it with rich text using the content editor.
To add a content page:
- If available in your course, select Manage Course from the course menu so that Edit Course Menu becomes active.
- Select Add page.
- For Page name (Required), enter a name.
- If you don’t want students to see this in the menu while you’re working, turn off Visible to students.
- If you select Add, a new course menu item shows at the bottom of the course menu. Selecting the menu item opens a blank page you can edit later.
- For the Content type, select Rich text to enter and format text using the provided HTML editor.
If you copy and paste text into the content editor workspace, it does not automatically covert to HTML. To copy and paste text as HTML, select Source code from either the View or Tools menu.
Besides text formatting, you can use the content editor to insert an image, link, media, or table as well as to preview, check the source code, and more.
- To control whether students see the menu item, use the control Visible to students.
- Select Add to create the new menu item, or Cancel to discard your changes.
The new menu item shows at the bottom of the course menu. You can rearrange its position. You can also rename the menu item, hide/show the menu item to students, or develop its content at any time.
