Settings for the left-navigation on My Training Dashboard

Introduction

The Settings section of My Training Dashboard enables LMS admins to show or hide sections on the left-side navigation menu of My Training Dashboard, and add relevant links to it, therefore controlling which sections of the dashboard will be available for users.

In this article, we'll provide an overview of the Settings section of My Training Dashboard.

 

Overview of the My Training Dashboard settings

IMPORTANT   

  • Only users with the LMS admin role can see and configure the Settings section on My Training Dashboard.
  • All changes to the Settings of My Training Dashboard are applied to and affect only the page where the My Training Dashboard web part is added. For example, this means that if you employ My Training Dashboard in both Microsoft Teams and Microsoft SharePoint, you'll have to make changes in both places in order to deliver the same experience across the applications.
  • Changes are applied for all users in the course catalog.

To customize the left-side navigation and relevant links, select the Settings section of My Training Dashboard. The options will open in a sidebar.
