Custom Roles
under review

Ability to create a custom role with a list of permissions and assign it to someone.
Note:We will not be changing existing roles as lot of people are using them and they may not need any changes to current roles, instead we will look at Custom Role to implement in the correct way.

That makes sense. Given we have multiple facilitators, they should not be able to see sales, we need to protect our IP and it's dangerous they can change the course content (accidently delete etc). They need to be able to view the students in their cohort/course, communicate in communities, start the Zoom live sessions so they are cloud recorded as well and pull reports from the survey's and quizzes. The most important here is that they should not be able to edit the course content and need to be able to pull reports from surveys and quizzes and be able to start and run the live Zoom sessions and of course communicate in the communities.

Could community admin/moderator be done this way or does it need to be separate?

Hi Rakesh, is there any progress on this or a roll out date planned, I have some facilitators nervous to be trained on the progam so I can have them facilitating. Cheers Marsha

Amazing news! If this can also include a curated dashboard to certain courses and access to only their designated payment plans/courses this would be great.
For example at the moment an Instructor of 4 courses can see the whole sites dashboard/courses/payment plans and apply a coupon to any payment plan

New teacher user role
Hari Om
The user roles in Zenler are not fit-for-purpose for a school where the course content creators are different from teachers who just teach the courses. The people in the teaching job roles may not be the right people for creating/updating, pricing, and publishing a course. Suppose a school hires some part-time or temporary staff teachers for teaching only then it would be too risky to give an Instructor role to them. Currently, the Instructor role is able to edit, price, and publish the course. It would be great if this suggestion is given a serious look so that bigger schools can make better use of Zenler.
Another small suggestion would be to add a class type of feature in Zenler that will include a set of courses, a set of students, a set of teachers(not course creators), and a published calendar of the course teaching sessions all bundled together.
Things are a bit clunky at the moment for such a very common scenario for a school. It seems like the Zenler platform is primarily designed for course sellers rather than a classroom-style teacher-student setup also.

Limit Instructor Roles & Access
MENDS
As I have multiple Facilitators/Instructors, I would like it so the instructors are not able to see sales pages or to be able to edit content. This is extremely risky that they can edit the course curriculum. I'm finding my facilitators/instructors find it confusing seeing the course in an editable mode so ideally instructors should only be able to view the course as a student does. This way I can have multiple facilitators delivering my course/s. Also, the instructors still need to have the ability to start the live sessions and run them. Instructors should also have the ability to check student progress and pull suvery responses etc. Can this please be reviewed as a matter of priority? It's extremely risky having instructors being able to delete content, change content, not see the course as the student does, and to not see the surveys and assignments etc as a student does. This is also risking our IP. I'm sure changing the access levels for an instructor can't be that complicated. This has been requested by many people now and described in different ways, but those of us using multiple facilitators to run programs are all sharing the same concerns.
