The tools in this section help to configure additional settings that control how courses are delivered/displayed to users.

 

Course Avatars

Choose if you'd prefer the LMS to create fallback thumbnails for your Courses

 

Delivery Mode

Select the way you want learning activities to be delivered. Popup window delivery is not compatible with Microsoft Teams delivery or any other embedding scenarios.
 
You can control this in Javascript by setting the awx.vars.usePopups value. For example, to set the popups to only apply on mobile devices, add this to your site Javascript:

setTimeout( function() {
    if ( awx.vars.device == 'mobile' ) {
      awx.vars.usePopups = true;
    } }, 1000 );
 

Failed Quiz Handling

Determines how a failed quiz should be treated. Note that changing this will affect the quizzes after the setting is changed, but will not change quizzes taken before the change. Also note that when failed quizzes are not treated as complete, the failed attempt, along with any associated data is not recorded in the system.

 

E-Signature Authentication

If you want users to authenticate before e-signing a document in your courses, you can set which data field in their profile should be used. Password is the most obvious choice, but if your users are accessing this system through Single Sign-on or though another mechanism such as Microsoft Teams, they will likely not know their LMS password and therefore another field should be selected.

When using another field other than password, make sure the field is a required field to be filled out so each user will have a value associated with the field.

Default value is 'Do Not Require Authentication', meaning no authentication is required before a user applies their e-signature.
