Very Important Note:
- Library / Carousel View does not support more than 2-level products like the example above.
- When trying to convert a 3-level course to a carousel view, the first level will be removed however the content will remain, and the very first section level only will be removed permanently.
4. Change a 3-level course from a list view to a carousel view and vice versa:
- In the example below, we have a 3-level course with main sections "Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3".
- Each main section has a sub-section of lectures "Let's begin, Let's continue, and Let's rest".
- Each sub-section has content videos under it and that's where the name of the 3-level course comes from.
- When converting from a list to a carousel view, the main sections will be removed permanently but the content will remain the same "Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 will be removed permanently".
5. Frequently Asked Questions FAQs:
