These users will then be able to edit and delete the learning resource. Co-owners can add, edit or delete content on their own.

Carina Enke (Admin) 96.1 78 With the help of the small arrow icons in the Actions column, you can manually change the order of the course owners. The positioning in the table refers to the order of persons in listings, for instance in the course view, catalogue or search results.

108 {{info}}
Carina Enke (Admin) 96.1 109 Some lists, such as the course catalogue in the course offerings area, are cached by the system for a configured time interval and thus not reinitialised each time they are opened. In other words, a change in the visibility of course owners will not be effective until the next initialisation process.
