(Collections) Lessons: Arrange and Display Course Lessons

The Lessons collection element is designed to help you organize and display your course lessons dynamically. This element ensures students can easily navigate through lessons within a course, providing a clear and structured learning experience. In this article, we’ll show you how to add the Lessons element to a page, customize its settings, and make the most of its features for a polished course layout.


Requirements


Where You Can Use The Lessons Element

This element is most relevant for the following pages:


Adding The Lessons Element

  1. Open the ClickFunnels page editor for the page where you want to display your Lessons.

  2. Click Add Element in the desired row to open the Elements menu.

  3. Scroll to the Collections section and select the Lessons element.

  4. Next, you will be prompted to select the number of columns you want to add inside the container.

  5. Add dynamic details such as Name, Image, and Link, which automatically pull data from your lesson settings to keep your page updated. You can include the following elements:

    1. Name: Displays the lesson name.

    2. Description: Adds a brief description of the lesson.

    3. Link: Provides a clickable link to access the lesson.

    4. Image: Displays the featured image for the lesson.

    5. Audio/Video: Embeds an audio or video file for the lesson.

    6. Published Date: Shows when the lesson was published.

    7. Lesson Status: Displays whether the lesson is completed or in progress.

  6. Click on each element to access its settings. Adjust fonts, colors, spacing, and layout to match your page’s design for a cohesive look.  


Customizing The Lessons Element

Accessing Settings

When you hover over a collection element, its border will be highlighted in magenta . To access an element's settings, click on the gear ⚙️ icon or click directly on the element to open its' settings panel.

Top Margin

The Top Margin setting allows you to control the space between the current element and the element directly above it. If no previous element exists, the margin will be applied relative to the parent container, such as a row, section, or flex container. You can adjust the margin using the slider or manually input a value (px or percentage %), ensuring the spacing is consistent with your design needs.

Collection Settings

The Collection Settings let you configure how your products are displayed on the page:

  • Items Per Row: Choose how many products to display per row.

  • Items Per Page: Specify how many products are shown per page.

  • Pagination Customization: Pagination divides your product list into multiple pages, allowing customers to browse through smaller groups of items instead of scrolling through an extensive list. This helps improve navigation, load times, and the overall user experience. You can customize its appearance to suit your design:

    • Hide Pagination: Enable or disable pagination for multi-page product collections.

    • Pagination Item Color: Set the color for pagination items.

    • Pagination Item Background Color: Define the background color for pagination items.

    • Pagination Border Color: Customize the border color for pagination items.

    • Pagination Active Item Color: Set the color for the currently active pagination item.

    • Pagination Active Item Background Color: Adjust the background color for the active item.

    • Pagination Active Border Color: Customize the border color for the active item.

Advanced Settings

To further customize your container (section, row, column, and element), ClickFunnels provides powerful Advanced settings options that allow you to control style, advanced CSS, animation, and rendering logic. We’ve separated these advanced features into dedicated articles to avoid overwhelming you with too much content in one place and to keep our documentation concise.
