Managers can not only add new badges, but also manage existing badges. They can edit, copy or delete badges, control access, view the list of badge recipients and - if activated - award badges manually.

2. Actions

2.1 Disable / enable access
Click on the eye icon to control access to the badge for participants in the course room. The open eye  indicates that the badge is available for the participants, the closed eye  indicates that the badge is not available. Click on the open eye to change the status to "Disable access", click on the closed eye to "Enable access".

2.2 Edit
If you click on the icon for "Edit", the basic settings of your badge will open. You can now adjust the basic settings. For more information on the basic settings, please refer to the manual General Information on Badges.  

 

Note

Editing the basic settings can only be done if access is disabled for users and the badge has not yet been awarded.

5.3 Copy
Clicking the copy icon  creates a copy of the selected badge and opens its basic settings. These are identical to the basic settings of the original badge and can be adjusted as required. After saving your changes, you will return to the overview.

5.4 Delete
1. If you want to delete a badge, click on the icon for "Delete" . The following view will then open: 

2. If the badge has already been awarded, you have two options:

• You delete the badge, but keep the already awarded instances of the badge.
• You delete the badge together with the already awarded instances of the badge.

3. Confirm your choice by clicking the respective button. Then the deletion will be executed.

5.5 Award badge

If "manual award"  is set as an award criterion for a badge, the "award badge"  action is also displayed in the overview.

1. To award a badge manually, click on the "Award badge" icon . This opens the overview of recipients. 

2. Here, in the list on the right, select the person who should receive the badge. To select multiple people, hold down the CTRL key (Windows) or the cmd key (Mac) and click the desired names.

3. Then click on "Award badge". The selected people will now be moved to the left in the list of recipients.

4. When you later open the badge via the badge overview, the people to whom the badge has already been awarded are listed in the "Recipients" tab.
