This guide will help you understand how to effectively add and manage users for your courses, both from the Front-end and the Back-end of the system. 

Front-End User Management

From the front-end interface, you can manage users on a course level - for only one course at a time. In the "Users and Groups" section you can:

  1. add (subscribe) Students to the course:
  1. from the list of users registered on your website;
  2. register and add a new Student to the course;
  3. upload a CSV file with the list of Students. In this case users do not have to be registered on the website: when the uploading is finished, users will be both registered on the website and subscribed to your course

     II. add Teacher Assistants to the course:

  1. from the list of users registered on your website;
  2. register and add a new Teacher Assistant to the course;

 

Back-End User Management

The administrative area of the system allows you to perform users management at all levels for all courses at the same time: from administering course users to managing Teachers, Assistants or LMS Administrators. 

The system allows you to perform the following operations from the administrator area:

  1. CSV Import/Export/Delete operations that allow importing/exporting a list of users from/into a CSV file and unsubscribing and deleting users with the help of a CSV file. To learn more about the CSV operations please watch our video tutorial;
  2. add (subscribe) or delete (unsubscribe) Students to/from various courses;
  3. add or delete Teacher Assistants or CEO/ Parents.

 

Self-registration

If you want the end-users to be able to register themselves on your website, the self-registration option should be enabled on your website. This is not native JoomLMS functionality - all the registrations are basically controlled by Joomla! CMS. All registrations related settings for your site are at the Back-end - > Users - > Management part - > the Options button

More information on how to get students to JoomLMS classrooms you can find in our blog post.

This article can also be useful for you if you want to grant free trials to paid courses.
