Getting Started with Page Groups for your Axis LMS websites

Within Axis LMS, you are able to restrict what pages a user is able to view based on what user groups they are a member of. Before you get started, you will need at least one user group.

Once your system has at least one user group, you’ll want to begin assigning what page groups they have access to. To assign a user group to a page group, go into your Learning Portal Settings (System > Site Design > Learning Portal Website > Edit Learning Portal Settings [gear icon]) then expand the Page Group Settings.

Depending on your plan, you can assign up to 100 different page groups to display to different user groups, all users, or no users.

Editing Page Group Pages
Because of the large amount of pages you are likely to amass, you are able to sort your pages (by page group) so that you always know who will see your changes.

Page Group Defaults

When you select a category to work with, you will notice certain changes to the defaults of widgets created. One of the more noticeable examples of this is the navigation strip / bar. Instead of displaying ‘top level’ pages (pages assigned to ‘Default Page Group’), the navigation will be optimized for this page group and default to showing only the pages included in this page group. You can change what pages are displayed in the navigation by editing the widget, then choosing what Page Group’s navigation should be displayed.
