How-to guide

Preview active topics

Open a side panel that lists the titles of every active topic on a training topics page, including topics the search, filters or paging currently hide.

A training topics page shows ten rows at a time by default, with active and inactive topics mixed. Use the preview when you need to check which topics of a training type are active without working through the table.

Before you start

  • The preview covers only the jurisdiction shown on the jurisdiction button in the toolbar. The button shows the jurisdiction's name, and its tooltip reads Jurisdiction. Choose your jurisdiction there first.

Open the preview

  1. In the menu, under Health & Safety, select Training and then the training type. The topics page of that type opens.

    If you select Occupational, a selection page opens first. Choose the occupation code there, as described in find the training topics for an occupation.

  2. In the toolbar above the table, select the icon button immediately before the jurisdiction button. Its tooltip reads Preview how active topics appear to employees. A side panel opens, with Content Preview at the top. Under User View, each active topic is a numbered card with its title, in the order of the table.

    The preview side panel open over a training topics page, listing one active topic as a numbered card.
    The panel lists only the titles of the active topics.

  3. To close the panel, select Close Preview at the bottom or the close button at the top, or press Escape. On a wider screen you can also select anywhere outside the panel.

What the preview lists

  • Every topic on the page with the status Active, including topics hidden at the moment by the search box, a card above the table, the filters or the table's pages. Topics with the status Inactive or Archived are never listed.
  • Only the training type, the jurisdiction and, on an Occupational page, the occupation code of the page you have open.
  • The title of each topic. Topic details, durations and lessons are not shown, and nothing can be changed from the panel.
Note

When User View is selected, the panel starts with the line This is how employees will see the active content. The panel lists only the titles of the active topics in the table on your page.

If no topic is listed

The panel shows No active items available when no topic on the page has the status Active. A new topic has the status Inactive until it is enabled. Check that you opened the right training type. For an occupation, check the code in the page title; to choose another, select Occupational above the title.

To list a topic, enable it, then open the preview again. The statuses are described in the training topics page guide.

Check also that the jurisdiction button shows the jurisdiction you work in. If it does not, choose your jurisdiction there and open the preview again.
