Hi, I’d like to limit the use of some of the modules I create to only invited/chosen guests and not make it accessible to the public, is it possible ?
Another thing, is it possible to block a user on a module so he/she can’t get access to it after having started to use it ?
Thanks !
Hi, @Cyril_Erbin.
By modules, you mean the courses that you create with the “Create a Course” button, right? You can set a course to “Unlisted” in the course’s settings. This will make it so that the course does not show up in searches or on your user page, but you could still provide the link to someone to make the course accessible to them.
There is unfortunately no such thing as a truly private course on Memrise though. Someone could find your course by using the course’s ID in the url, which is extremely unlikely (has never happened to me), but still possible, and someone you give the link to could always share it with someone else. There is no way to block specific users from a course; if they have a link to the course, that’s all they need to access it, unless you deleted the whole course or the user were to get banned from all of Memrise for whatever reason.
Short version: I’d say your best bet is to set the course to “unlisted”, provide links to the people you want to invite, and request that they do not share them. It wouldn’t be fool-proof, but at least your course wouldn’t be completely public.
