Confused: adding words

Dear Community,

this has been asked before, I know, and I have tried to find the information I need in other posts, but I can’t seem to solve my problem on my own.

I am trying to create a course with several levels.
At first I must have done something right, because my first 2 Levels have words in them. So I happily typed words into what I thought was the third level – but that level remains empty.

I understand I have to create a level first, then open it to add words to it – correct? I have been “test-doing” just that, but any word I add in the opened level will not be there after checking.

If I click on any of the existing levels, I seem to end up in the database because I can see all the words I have entered.
What am I doing wrong?
Would somebody be so kind and give me a step by step instruction as to how add words into a level?

Thank you very much!

can you provide some screenshots?

if you are adding words do you click on the “+ sign”?

if you end up in database do you see all those words there, the ones you tried to insert in the 3rd level?

Hi Atikker,
thank you for trying to help me!
Yes, I click on the “+sign” after adding words.


And yes, all the words I added show up in the database.
I seem to add word in the database only. Shouldn’t I be in the Levels-base once I click on a Level in the Edit Mode?

… sorry. the screenshot is not in the place where I wanted it to be. I am using this forum for the very first time.
Let me send this off and try to add more screenshots in the next message.

all the levels I have in this Course

I clicked on Level 1 in the editing mode and I land in the Database where all words, not just the words from level one are contained.

(Sorry for all these replies, it seems I am too new to be allowed to add more than one picture in a message.)

You can see here, that there are 6 “pages” - although I opened Level 1, I ended up in the database.

I hope these screenshots help define my problem.
Thanks again for your help!

Did you try to press the show/hide button on an individual level? At the bottom of that level you can add words to that level, see here

you only added items to your database

you can make levels from your database just change the number 15 for whatever number you want

you can add words from database in level view - look at the pics (it doesn’t always work right, so I advise you to add straight to levels and the items will appear in your database)

Dear Atikker, Dear Foorgol,
you did it!!! :blush:
It works! That show/hide button did the trick! Thank you so very much for your help! Without you I never would have even thought about clicking on that particular button; to me it didn’t seem to have anything to do with adding items.
Thank you for taking the time to look into my issue.

Good luck with your studies and have a nice day or evening or night wherever you are.

A very happy Kaydee
