In order to publish a lesson, you need to ensure that you have the following in place:
- The Lesson video has been transferred from WordPress.tv to the WordPress.org YouTube channel and is publicly available.
- You have created the draft Lesson on Learn.WordPress.org.
Once this is done, visit the YouTube channel, and copy the video URL.
Open the draft lesson, and embed the YouTube video below the lesson title, but above the transcript.
Make sure to preview your lesson before you publish it, to check that everything appears as you expect it to.
If you’re publishing a translated lesson, please do not assign it to the English course. Either publish it as a standalone lesson, or create a new localized course to store this lesson.
Enable the Lesson for translation
Currently, training team translators can’t view course lesson content without being logged in and enrolled in the course. This means that if a lesson belongs to a course, and the course is not yet published, translators cannot view the lesson to translate it.
While the training team tests and decides on a translation plugin to implement on Learn WordPress, the workaround is to enable the Preview option in the Lesson sidebar. This option can be found by scrolling down to the bottom of the sidebar in the Lesson editor.
Once the training team decides on how best to translate lesson content, this section will be updated.
