Hi Simon,
I moved your thread to the English Forum, could you please post there since you are posting in English?

Manuals: here you can find the manuals related to Docebo OS, FormaLms .... "ancestor". Many functions are still more or less the same
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=79

Tutorials: as of now they are in Italian only, but if you Google-translate them I am sure they'll be fairly understandable
There's already a good list of them

Hi Max

in this manual, page 74: Note: if the Reservation module is not included in the course menu, it will be impossible for users to subscribe to the correlated events.

could you please explain to me what it mean?

thanks!

Hi,

well, if you are reading the manual you'll already know that each menu can have different "modules" (items). In this case, the note highlights a "logical" issue.
In both Docebo & Forma Lms you can create "events" (typically it's real-world events, such as seminars or anyway "events") and let your users self-subscribe to them.
If you create an event related to a course but don't add the "reservation" module to the course menu, nobody will be able to subscribe to it. The reservation module is not included in the menu by default, it has to be added manually. Hence the note.

Hello,

Now I only have this way to access Reservations: E-Learning ->Reservation Management -> Reservations.

is that right? or please tell me to have to add the Reservation Module to course manually.

thank you!

Hi Simon,
no, that is only one way to create events in the administration section. As I said, add the "reservation" module to the menu of the course where you want to add an event.

That way, through the "reservation" menu item the course administrator will be able to manage events and the users will be able to reserve their place.

Hi Simon,

as I am trying to explain, you don't need any coding but just to add this item to the course menu.
You can do it in 2 ways:
- in the course, go to teacher area>manage menu
- if this item is not there, you need to customize your menu. Go to Elearning>settings>manage menu and customize your menu.
