Creating online courses is a great opportunity to share your knowledge and earn money from it. But if you are new to the GetCourse platform, then it is quite normal to encounter difficulties at the first stages. It seems that everything is simple: set up a course, add lessons, send a letter to students, and you are done. But reality quickly makes its own adjustments. Suddenly, modules do not open, letters do not arrive, and payments hang somewhere between the “payment system” and the “personal account”. Sound familiar?
In this article, we'll look at the most common mistakes new GetCourse users make and tell you how to avoid them so you can focus on what matters most - creating awesome, useful content!

Hidden Lessons
Imagine: you just finished creating a course, set up modules, added lessons, and students are already writing to you: “I can’t find the video!”, “Why can’t I open anything?” In general, it’s a pretty picture…
Why does this happen?
This often happens if you don't pay attention to the order of modules and lessons or accidentally hide them from users. On the GetCourse platform, lessons can either be hidden from everyone or tied to a condition that students have not yet managed to complete. As a result, you set it up, but people simply do not see your material.
What to do?
Before you launch a course, be sure to check out the Student View. This way, you can see everything from your students’ perspective and make sure each lesson and module is displayed as intended. And if you want to make access to lessons step-by-step, use automatic unlocking. It works when students complete the previous lesson, and everything will open in the right sequence.
Lack of logical sequence of tasks
Sometimes it happens that the tasks are available, but the students have to jump between them, like in a computer game with secret portals: "Lesson 3, Task 2", and then suddenly "Lesson 1, Task 4". As a result, they get confused and lose interest.
