HTML widgets are interactive components representing useful LMS features, and can be shown on the widget page when users log in. Typical widgets include a list of the learner's current enrollments, notification of certifications due to expire, and a summary of training progress. HTML widgets can also embed content from external sources that provide the embed link, which might provide streaming video, for example.
Widgets can be arranged on a widget page using the Widget Page Manager. Widget pages are then assigned to target users via skins, organization membership and logical domains.
You can assign access permissions for widgets using the standard Permissions Selector. The permissions determine which users can view or edit the widget in the Manage Center. You can also assign language bundles to widgets you have unrestricted access permission for.
Administrators with unrestricted access to the HTML Widgets feature in System Roles (Manage Features > System Administration) can configure HTML widgets.
Administrators with the Import and Export XLIFF files Role Access Permission in System Roles can import and export HTML widgets.
To configure HTML widgets, go to Manage Center > System > HTML Widgets.
