Private Access Only
This feature is currently in Private Access stage and only available upon request from the Tovuti Support Team.
Private Access Features are functional new features that still require some development.
Users have a variety of learning materials that they can access. Users can take full advantage of this with the global search function in the User Bar of the User Portal.
Admins who enable the global learner search ensure their learners spend less time searching for learning material, and more time mastering the content.
Each type of search result has specific functionality to help users quickly access what they are looking for.
This article outlines the following concepts:
Learner Experience
Learner Search is currently enabled by Tovuti Services. When the feature is turned on, the search bar is automatically added to the User bar of the Learner Portal.
Learner Search does not support multilingual overrides. Learner search only applies to the core language of courses and course categories (typically, English).
The user types a search query and available results are shown.
Search Results
Search results are shown in sections to organize and display a variety of results. These sections and their included results include (in order):
- Courses - by category and title
- Clicking navigates to the Course page
- Note: the Primary category is queried by the learner’s search, not the Secondary category
- Lessons - by title
- Clicking navigates to the Lesson page
- Media Library - by category and title
- Clicking navigates to the Media Item page
- Note: the Parent category is queried by the learner’s search, not the Secondary category
- Checklists - by title
- Clicking navigates to the Learner Dashboard where checklist items can be reviewed
- Blog Posts - by category, tag, and title
- Clicking navigates to the Blog Post page
Search results only include items for which the user has permission to view.
Each section displays the first three results and can be expanded to reveal more results within that section.

- Admins can turn the feature on and off, specifying the categories available
