EzyCourse Features Request

Dynamic User Role (DUR) is very essential to control the access of features in the EzyCourse dashboard. It should allow administrators to specify every detail about what each user role can control as the following: 1. Administrators can create different user roles and assign them the right to access the following:  Different items in the menu and submenu on the user dashboard  Each product and service like each Appointment, each Event, each Group Chat, each Private Chat, each Live Stream, etc.  Each category like each course category, each video library, each audio library, etc. 2. Administrators can edit information and redistribute the rights of each user role later after creating each user role. 3. Administrators can separate users into different groups depending on whether they are students or staff members:  Students can be separated into groups called “circles” which can be further divided into “subcircles”.  Staff members can be separated into groups called “departments” which can be further divided into “subdepartments”. 4. We need to have some dynamic widgets which show dynamic content based on the user who accesses the platform. For example, they can be a course list, event list, appointment list, assignment list, quiz list, dateline list, etc for each logged-in user. Administrators can design and specify what content details to display on each widget. 5. Administrators can build different dashboards using page builder and dynamic widgets. Administrators can then assign them to different parties using three levels of priority.  Low Priority (based on user roles): All users with this kind of user role will have access to this dashboard.  Middle Priority (based on user groups): All users with this kind of group (either circle/subcircle or department/subdepartment) will have access to this dashboard.  High Priority (based on each user): Only this specific user can have access to this dashboard.  Middle Priority will override the Low Priority and High Priority will override the Middle Priority.

Ability to include sound effect for quiz answers when students answer correctly or wrong. Allow option to turn it on or off for teacher (dashboard) and students (when doing the quiz). Allow option to upload sound effect audio.

Currently, all (Student) users are classified as students. It would be great to have this as a customisable option with various roles. This way we can distinguish between users which is very handy especially for communities, as these can be used to display different levels of experience ie level 1 student, Master, Trainer etc

The text replace tool also replaces text inside the course. I would rather set the new title manually

The ability to use a lesson in different courses without having to make multiple copies of the same lesson is not only a time saver but also storage efficient.

Hi guys, Germany has even stricter GDPR laws than the EU, unfortunately. This limits our options when it comes to choosing platforms like EzyCourse. I really like the idea of EzyCourse, but for the moment, I will have to continue using Elopage, which is a German platform, that I am not too happy with, but that complies with German GDPR. I know there are some other requests concerning GDPR, but I want to make sure you really have all the important points when it comes to Germany. Servers should be in Germany or the EU at least (you have that feature now, I think) You as a server provider need to be able to trace all data movements (in case data leaks occur). So everyone working with the data (that includes subcontractors etc) needs to sign a privacy policy that they will comply with the GDPR (another person informed you about this already). We as members of EzyCourse will have to provide this information to our customers. We will also have to provide something called "imprint" (Impressum), which contains our company's legal information. So there needs to be a separate page for: imprint (Impressum), privacy policy (Datenschutz) and, terms of service (AGB). I am attaching the footer of my German website. This is what it should look like on the customer's end. In Summary, EzyCourse will have to provide the technical means for us to put out the information in the footer the way I show you on my website. Since customers need to consent to these things, we will need check boxes when people are checking out at their purchase. Also, EU law requires informing people about revocation (usually 14 days, but you can exclude it for online products, but only through individual agreement, like a check box, not in the terms of service!). Extra custom boxes are also very welcome (to inform people about the cancellation policy of an appointment, for example!) Cookie notice: needs to be adjustable in terms of individual consent. People need to be able to opt out of cookies. It is customary to have cookie notices differentiate between: consent to all cookies, do not consent, consent to essential cookies only. See this German legal text about it, you may have to translate: https://www.e-recht24.de/tracking-cookies/8451-hinweispflicht-fuer-cookies.html Correct VAT identifications on bills: Regular online products are taxed at 19%, but ebooks are only taxed at 7%. Also, some products do not get taxed with VAT. This is the case if the service is exempt: I am a therapist, for example, and get to offer appointments without VAT. I would love to use Ezycourse for my group therapy, but I can't if I can't stipulate the correct VAT for every product/membership I sell. Another case of exemption would be selling products B2B within the EU. If someone who lives in Austria, for example, would like to take part in my online class that regularly gets taxed at 19%, they will need a net invoice. This is called reverse charge. Therefore people need to be able to tick a box if they are B2B clients, which can easily happen if someone is taking a class as a business training (I train colleagues). So in a way the system needs to be able to recognize where the customer is coming from (country) and if it is a B2B customer. Transparent monthly reports: many people need to declare their VAT transactions monthly. In order to do this, we need a very clear report on all monthly sales as well as the VAT proportions. All sales with 19%, 7% or 0% need to be grouped together. I am happy to provide you with an example from Elopage that is compliant and user friendly for accountants. These reports need to coincide with the monthly cash-outs, of course. So all transactions and profits can be easily traced on the sales reports. It must be possible for customers to cancel/pause memberships/subscriptions themselves in an easy way, through a button or so. Free products can't be declared as "free" if we are using them to generate lead magnets. We will have to be able to tell people that they are free of charge, but that we will collect data. So the wording at the check-out counts. I know this is a lot to ask from a platform. Unfortunately, German entrepreneurs don't really have a choice in the matter. All of this comes at great financial costs for us. The problem is that the non-compliance with even one of the points above will open us up to liability. And there are people out there actively looking for liabilities in online shops and websites. They will blackmail you to pay money or otherwise report you to the authorities. There are huge fines for data infringements. Also, German tax authorities are extremely demanding. If they think your billings or the reports that you base your VAT/income tax on are sketchy, they will order a tax audit. Therefore, reports and billing (which needs to be automatic, not on request) need to be impeccable. I hope that helps. I would really like to start using EzyCourse. But for the moment I am opening myself up to liability. If you want to work with German customers, you need to consult with German lawyers on all of the above topics, especially privacy policy and tax regulations. Katia

When creating a community that is only available to members of a particular course, an easier and more obvious way of navigating between the two

Please move the description of the courses on the course preview pages so that the description displays first, right above the discussion area. This way students will actually see the description first and won't miss it. Reference how you already did this on the video libraries watch pages. Thanks!

The ability to limit of select the duration of a subscription in addition to the increment for all products. Eg. You have a course that sells for $500 and offer a monthly installment plan of $100 each month. It will be great to be able to set a number of installments to 5 so you don't bill client beyond the 5th payment without having to manually terminate the subscription plan. Also, the ability to specify the expiry date of sale pricing. Eg. You are offering an early bird sale that ends October 30th and set your original/strikethrough price at $500 and the early bird/sale price at $425. It will be helpful and efficient to have the price automatically revert to the original/strikethrough price on November 1st.

There should be one more feature (product) added to offer i.e. SERVICES. e.g. Physical products, Digital products like wise we should be able to offer SERVICES. (like web development or consultation etc.) and be able to charge for that (one time as well as subscription)
