About

Kickstart’s course creator offers a clean, efficient interface that removes unnecessary options and focuses on the basics. Courses created with it are usually set to use the Kickstart format.


Accessing the course creator

To open the course creator manually, go to Site administration > Courses > Courses > Create course from template.

To streamline the workflow, enable the course creator redirect in the global settings. When active, users are automatically taken to the Kickstart course creator when they attempt to create a new course.


Available settings

The course creator displays the course creator instructions (defined in the plugin’s general settings), followed by only the fields required to create a course in Moodle:

  • Course full name

  • Short name

    Automatically copied from the full name, but can be edited by clicking the pencil icon.

  • Course category

Once these fields are filled out, clicking Continue creates the course and opens it.

After creation, you can still access the full course settings to fine-tune visibility, enrolment methods, or other advanced options.
