Viewing and editing System Properties

View the properties list, edit a property value, and apply changes in CourseMill.

System properties are configuration values that CourseMill queries at run time. Use them to fine-tune your CourseMill experience by viewing the properties list, editing property values, and applying your changes.

Before you begin

  • You must be defined as a global administrator to have access to the Manage Properties task.
  • Changes to CourseMill are not applied until you click the Apply Changes button.

View the properties list

The properties list displays the currently defined properties by category. The list can be re-sorted by the category, property name, or the current value. Use the list to select and edit a property.

To view the properties list, open the Admin Tasks side-tab and click Manage Properties.

Each row in the table represents a currently defined property. The properties are initially listed by category. Click a heading to re-sort the list. For example, click the Property column heading to re-sort the table by the property name. Use the Search box to locate a specific property or the Jump To page navigation to move through the list.

Edit a property

  1. Open the Admin Tasks side-tab and click Manage Properties.
  2. Double-click the property you want to edit or select the property and click Edit. Alternatively, you can select the property, right-click on the table, and select Edit.
  3. On the Edit System Property window, specify the property’s value in the Value field.
  4. Click Save. The property is updated in the property list.
  5. Click Apply Changes to have CourseMill recognize the updated property value.

Apply changes

Once you have added a property or modified a property’s details, you can apply the changes without closing the program.

  1. Open the Admin Tasks side-tab and click Manage Properties.
  2. Select the property and click Apply Changes. Alternatively, you can select the property, right-click on the table, and select Apply Changes.

The changes are applied.
