How to Make Your new NILE Sites Available

Taken from: http://blogs.northampton.ac.uk/learntech/2012/08/21/how-to-make-your-new-nile-sites-available/

All of the new 2012 – 2013 NILE sites are currently set as unavailable to students by default, so when you have finished building your new NILE sites, you will need to  make them available to your students. Students will be automatically added to sites where possible but will not see any content until it has been made available.

Once your content is in place  you can go ahead and make the sites available so that when students are added to them, they can access the content immediately.

In order to make your NILE site available to students please follow these 5 steps:

1. Enter your unavailable NILE site.
2. Under the Control Panel (on the lower left of the window) select Customisation, and choose Properties.
3. Under Set Availability, select ‘Yes‘ to Make Module Available
4. Click Submit

The new upgrade to NILE also speeds up the process of making a NILE sites available if you have a number you need to access:

1. Click on the arrow next to the house icon [See screenshot]
2. Select another of your NILE sites.
