How to edit the order of your content items

  2. A grid icon will appear next to the item

  3. Click and hold the grid icon to "pick it up"

What can you move and where can you move it?

  • You CAN move an item from one Unit into another Unit

  • You CAN move an item from a Unit to a Lesson/Folder

  • You CANNOT nest a Unit under another Unit

  • You CANNOT move an item outside of a Unit unless you're moving it into another Unit

Pro Tip

If you need more advanced content reordering functionality (i.e., to achieve some of the things you cannot do from the content tool drag and drop) use the Course Builder.

To find the Course Builder, click More Tools > All Course Tools > Course Builder (for Cengage). As with the Content tool, you can use the diagram of your course objects to drag and drop them into a new sequence.
