This article explains how to add and manage linked resources when setting up a module. Please note that you must have the Edit content permission to access the Content editor.

Linked resources appear in the Skillcast e-learning as links under the Linked resources button. They are available throughout the course, but the button can be disabled for assessments.

Scrolling modules:

1. Find the module you want to edit. You can follow the steps listed in the article about Finding a module.

2. Select Linked resources on the right side of the page.

3. Choose a PDF file, add a title, and select the Add a new resource button. Make sure the Resource List toggle is enabled so the document appears in the module.

NOTE: Tutor resource is currently unavailable.

4. If your module is translated, you will see the configuration for each language. You have a few options:

You can check the uploaded documents and download them directly from the Linked resources screen by using the two buttons next to the file upload selector.

You can edit existing linked resources as required or delete and upload new linked resources. Kindly note that if you change the existing English language version file, all other language versions that have no file (exclamation mark) will use the latest English language version file.

Please remember to check your changes via View as learner. The article View as learner explains it more.

You can disable the linked resources button in assessments. The button remains disabled until an employee finishes their assessment attempt. Employees can access linked resources between the assessment attempts.

Please follow the Editing the assessment article, explaining how to edit assessment settings.

Once you are on the assessment configuration screen, scroll down to find and tick the Hide Resources Button setting. Then, select the Update button at the bottom of the screen to save the change.

If you have completed all the module changes, please refer to the article titled What do I do when I finish creating or editing my module?.
