Basic Definitions guide

Basic Definitions guide

The basic definitions correspond to the basic characteristics of the courses and materials. They allow courses to be categorized and filtered according to your users preferences. In this section you can create and organize your definitions.

Definitions can also be created while creating a course or a material and will be compiled in the "Basic Definitions" section.

Access the basic definitions section from "Daily management".

  1. Courses

The basic definitions of the course will allow us to filter and narrow the search on your school's course page.

In the basic search you can choose the type of course, its theme and country in which it will be taught.

Using the advanced filter you can specify the sub-themes and the level of difficulty.

  1. Themes

The themes correspond to the different categories in which the course belongs.

For example, on Foxize.com the courses have been divided into 7 major categories: Business, Marketing, Communication, Data, Sales, Skills and Technology, but you can choose the categories that best suit your learning platform.


In this section, you will find the list of all the themes created.

You can see the details of each theme, edit and create a new theme by adding a name, a description, and an icon.

You can also activate or deactivate a theme. An active topic will appear on the topic page on the frontend, and you can add courses to that category. If it is disabled, it will not be usable or it will not appear on the web.

Use the "Filter" option to search for themes on your list.

On the frontend, it will appear like this:


  1. Sub-themes

To help focus the search for courses, we can add sub-themes. They are part of a theme and better describe the definition of the course. On the frontend they will be listed below the main category to which they belong.

The sub-themes section works the same as the themes section, with the added theme option to which it belongs.

  1. Levels

The levels express the degree of knowledge that the user must have regarding the subject of the course. By default, in Foxize Cloud we offer you 3: Basic, Intermediate and Advanced.

  • Basic: It is not necessary to have any previous knowledge to take the courses, although having experience in this matter is a plus to be able to apply the concepts more easily.

  • Intermediate: Attendees must have basic knowledge and/or experience in the area.

  • Advanced: Attendees must have prior knowledge and experience in this matter to be able to deepen the subject.

In this section you can modify or add new levels according to the criteria of your training school and modify the order of appearance in the drop-down of the course creation form.

  1. Countries

In this section, you will find the list of countries where you teach live-classes. You can manually add the country to the list or import a .CSV file. You can also activate or deactivate countries, so that they appear or not in the search filter of the frontend.

  1. Cities

You will find the list of cities where you teach live-classes courses. You can manually add the city to the list or import a .CSV file and enable or disable cities.

  1. Location

In this section, you can add and modify the list of places where you teach your courses. The place can be a building, an event, or a room/classroom of your organization.

Like the other categories, you can add or import a .CSV to the list and activate or deactivate the locations so that they do not appear in the search filter.

  1. Materials

On the "Materials" page of the frontend you can collect interesting materials for your users. They can be books, ebooks, templates, videos, manuals or whatever you think is interesting and useful to complement the learning experience.

These definitions will allow filtering the material according to themes and formats.

  1. Formats

Here you will find the list of types of materials that users can find in the library. You can create as many as necessary, the most common are books and ebooks, but we encourage you not to limit yourself and look for new formats to support learning.

  1. Authors

In this section, you can create and edit the list of authors that users can find in the library. You will need to enter the first and last name separately. You can also add a short biography and links to the author's website or networks.

  1. Tags

To better define materials, you can add tags to your materials. In this section you can create and edit them. You can create as many as you need.

With the basic definitions, you will be able to have all the necessary information for your courses and materials at your fingertips.
