New navigation interface

Introduction

The new navigation interface gives a fresh look to your platform that includes:

• A completely reorganized configuration menu for administrators, including a favorites feature. 
• A redesigned user menu and new header bar, title bar and action button layouts
• A new launch pad page where administrators can selectively enable or configure the latest available platform features.

Opt-in period for new navigation  
The new navigation interface will be opt-in until July 2026. During that time, you can try it out in preview mode and then selectively enable it for other users, or revert to the legacy navigation. For instructions see the chapter: How to enable new navigation experience 

At the end of the opt-in period, the New navigation will be active on all platforms and the legacy navigation will no longer be available.

How to enable the new navigation experience

As a Superadmin, you can choose to try out the new navigation experience by enabling it only for yourself. Then you can decide to enable it for all administrators (Superadmins and Power Users) or for all users of the platform. 

You can also revert to the legacy interface at any time during the opt-in period. 

Preview new navigation

To try it out: 

1. Open the Admin menu, and there you will see a banner announcing The new navigation is here!. Click the Try new navigation button to get started.  

   

2. In the window that opens, click Enter preview mode to enable the new experience only for your account. 

   

3. You will see that your platform interface changes, with a different menu and header bar. At this point you can opt to take a tour to get an overview of what has changed, or you can choose to explore on your own.

   

Tip: While in preview mode, you can also see what the experience will look like for a normal user (learner). To do this, go to User management and use the “Log in as this user” functionality to impersonate a learner. 

Enable new navigation for other users

Once  you have tested the new navigation in preview mode, you can enable it for other categories of users as well. The options available are: all Superadmins, all Superadmins and Power Users, all users.

To do this, in the bottom left corner click the rocket icon (launch pad) to open the launch pad page. Locate the New navigation card on the page and from the drop-down select the desired enablement option: 

• Preview mode: only for you 
• Enabled for all Superadmins
• Enabled for all Superadmins and Power Users
• Enabled for all users

Then in the window that opens click Confirm and reload. The platform will reload to apply your changes.

Restore legacy navigation

You can also revert to the legacy navigation interface at any time during the opt-in period. To do this: 

• Click the rocket icon in the left sidebar to open the launch pad page
• Locate the New navigation card and from its enablement drop-down menu select Restore legacy navigation. 
• In the window that opens you can optionally provide some feedback, then click Confirm. 

The platform will reload and the legacy navigation interface will be reinstated for all users. You can re-enable the new navigation at any time from the Admin menu.

The new learner menu 

For learners, their new navigation menu is located as before on the left hand side. Here they will find all the same items that were previously present in their legacy menu. 

Changes to note: 

• The page icons are no longer visible in the new menu interface. However page icons can still be configured, as they remain visible in the legacy navigation.
• My profile, Cookie policy and Sign out are no longer present in the left-hand navigation. They are instead accessed via the profile picture in the top right corner of the header. See the chapter New “My account” area.

The redesigned user menu can be either pinned open or allowed to close using the Keep open / Auto-hide button at the top. 

There is also a What’s new area at the bottom of the menu that lets users take a tour of the latest features added to their platform.

New header layout

With the new navigation interface, the platform header has also been redesigned, and some items moved to different positions. 

The header bar itself now contains the following items: 

Changes to note: 

The following items have been moved from the header bar to the new My account area: 
  - My gamification (trophy icon)
  - Training credit shop (shop icon)
  - Help center (chat icon)
  - Show page info boxes (question mark icon) 

Example of learner header:

Example of administrator header:

Example of pre-login header:

Accessing the menu using the global or Harmony search

All users can quickly reach the desired area of the platform directly from the global search or Harmony search bar in the header. Power users and Learners will only see menu items based on their menu visibility settings.

By typing the name of the menu they are looking for, they can find and open the corresponding page directly from the suggested menu items in the search dropdown.

New title bar and action buttons layout

Underneath the new platform header, the page title bar has also been redesigned. In addition to the page title and description, it now integrates the top-right action buttons for a cleaner layout. For better ease of use and accessibility, these buttons now feature always-visible labels instead of tooltips, ensuring key actions are never hidden.

New “My account” area

Now, users can click their profile picture (My account) in the top right corner, to access the following areas: 

Items under “My account” (profile picture)	Former location in legacy navigation
My profile (contains same items as the legacy My profile area)	Pencil icon at the top of the user menu
My gamification	Trophy icon on header bar
Cookie policy	Link at the bottom of the user menu
Show tour and hints	Question mark icon on header bar, called Show page info boxes in legacy
Training credit shop	Shop icon on header bar
Help center  (Visible only to administrators)	Chat icon on header bar
Sign out	At the top of the user menu

The new administrator menu

The old Admin menu has been completely redesigned and reorganized. Now, all the configuration items are accessed via the same left sidebar that also contains the user menu. 

Menu structure

An icon bar on the left-hand side provides a first level of navigation. It lets administrators switch between the different menus available to them. When a user clicks the sidebar icon, the corresponding menu items are displayed.

	User menu (cube icon):  this opens the administrator’s learner menu, which operates as described in the chapter The new learner menu

Menu behavior

When a user hovers over a sidebar icon, the corresponding menu items are displayed. For example: 

In the case of the configuration icon (spanner), the menu items are further grouped into sub-categories using expanders: 

Note: With the new structure of the admin menu, some of the page names have been changed.  However the content of the pages remains the same. 

Optimized breadcrumbs

For a cleaner interface, the breadcrumbs at the top of the page now exclude the first navigation level, corresponding to the icon selected in the left-hand menu panel. 

For example, if a user navigates to Content and delivery > Course management > [course name] > [session name], the breadcrumbs will start only from Course management. 

Favorites menu

To make it easier to navigate the platform, administrators can mark their frequently-accessed pages as “favorites” and then quickly access them via a dedicated favorites menu in the sidebar. 

To mark a page as favorite, do one of the following:

• In the menu itself, hover over the desired item and click Add to favorites.
• When viewing a particular page, click the heart icon alongside the page title to add that page to your favorites. Note that this option is available only for the main entry pages. For example, you can mark as favorite the main course management page, but not a particular course page.

The pages you have marked as favorites can all be quickly accessed by clicking the heart icon in the sidebar. 

To remove a page from your favorites, open your favorites menu and click the heart icon (remove from favorites) next to the page that you want to remove.

Launch pad page

The launch pad page provides a unified hub from which you can activate or deactivate the opt-in features available on your platform. To access it, click the rocket icon (launch pad) in the bottom left corner. 

You will see a list of cards showing the features added to your platform, in reverse chronological order. 

Depending on the feature, the card may include buttons to do the following: 

Change enablement: A drop-down lets you enable/disable the feature in question or enable it for a specific subset of users. For example, Preview mode: only for you, Enabled for all Superadmins, Enabled for all users. (The specific options available vary depending on the feature) 

Configure: Some features, such as Harmony search, have additional settings or options that you can adjust. Clicking the Configure button takes you directly to the feature’s settings.

You can also click Give feedback to provide your feedback or suggestions about any feature on the launch pad page.
