If you have already explored customizing the look of your Course Player and would love to customize the look per course, you now have the ability to change the Course Player color, logo, font and theme at a course level.
Your Course Player is where your students will spend time interacting with your course content. Sometimes you might have specific branding or color schemes you would like applied to a particular course to create a unique learning environment for your students. For example, if have different groups of students taking different courses, you can customize the look and feel so that all of your students feel at home in your course. Or if you have a bundle or a progression of courses, you can use the course player customizations to help remind your students of what stage they are at in your online courses!
