For admins and library editors

The Library is the default landing page and sales page in your Learning Space. It is primarily learner-facing.

Visibility and accessibility of the Library

If you make your Paths "Public," anyone can discover and self-enroll in Paths from your Library page. If you make Paths "Members-only," anyone who is a member in your Learning Space can discover and self-enroll in Paths from your Library page. If you keep all your Paths exclusively private and "Invite-only," then you won't really use the Library page, but you can still access all Paths there as an admin.

Your Learning Space URL will look something like this: https://paths.pathwright.com

Before you release your first public Path, your Learning Space URL will bring people to a sign-in screen, like this: https://paths.pathwright.com/auth/sign-in

After releasing a public Path, your Learning Space URL will bring people directly to your Library: https://paths.pathwright.com/library

Registration through the Library

Once you've made at least one Path discoverable to the public or to your members, visitors or members can start learning from the Library by selecting a Path and then clicking or tapping the "Join Path" button. When anyone registers from the Library, they will be prompted to create an account and pay any price you have set on the Path.

You can also copy the URL from a specific Path's "About" page to share on your external website or on social media. Learners will be able to review information about the Path, choose from among multiple cohort offerings if applicable, and then click or tap the "Join Path" button to register.

If you've made any content available for visitor preview, prospective learners will be able to view the selected content before they purchase.

Branding

As your default landing page, the Library showcases your Learning Space's branding in several ways.

Your Learning Space branding appears on the browser tab, navigation bar, and accent colors through the Library.

Library banners can showcase your branding or highlight specific promotions.

Path covers and Path About pages are also opportunities to ensure your offerings are on-brand.

Search

An integrated Library search is now available for all Learning Spaces to help learners search resource titles and descriptions and more easily find something to learn next.

Categories

Categories make it easier for visitors and members to filter and search your Library, especially if your Library contains a large number of Paths. Each path can be assigned to one or more Category in your Library. If your Paths are public or visible to members in your Library, then your Library users will be able to filter them by category to quickly find something new to learn.

Authors

If you assign author profiles to your Paths, learners will be able to filter all Paths in your Library by Path author.

Filters and order of Paths

There are several filters present at the top of the Library that determine the order that Paths will be shown: the "new" filter, the "popular" filter, and the "featured" filter. The "featured" filter uses an algorithm to order the Paths based on a combination of date of creation and popularity.

It's not currently possible to override the order of Paths via the interface, but we do have Library updates in-progress that will give you much more control over how you organize the Library. Stay tuned!
