Course Files are a new feature of the File Manager. There are multiple ways to add and view files in the Course Files


Automatically add files when uploading content in a course


Any file that is uploaded when editing a page in a course will automatically be added to the Course Files to that course. When selecting a file to use in a course, the File Manager modal will initially automatically filter to the Course Files.
