Using Themes

In this article, you’ll learn how to:

Paid subscription users have the option of setting and customizing the theme used for their course. This includes adjusting colors and adding a logo to be displayed along the top of your course to compliment your branding. Also, Themes is where you can toggle off a course’s Allow Sharing and Allow Printing buttons, hiding them from your audience.

Note: Toggling off the Allow Sharing and Allow Printing buttons for a course does not block sharing. Users will still be able to copy and share the URL. Toggling these buttons off simply removes them from the audience’s view.
