You can easily organize your course by rearranging Learning Modules, Folders, and items using drag-and-drop or keyboard controls.

🔄 Reorder with Drag‑and‑Drop

1. Go to the Content section of your course.
2. Hover over the item you want to move (Module, Folder, or item). The six-dot grab icon (⋮⋮) will appear.
3. Click and hold the icon, then drag the item to a new position:
   • Move items up or down on the main page.
   • Drag items into or out of folders or modules.
4. Release to place the item. Moves are saved automatically.

♿ Reorder Using Keyboard (Accessible)

1. Tab to the item’s move button (six-dot icon).
2. Press Enter to activate move mode.
3. Navigate with the arrow keys to select the new location.
4. Press Enter again to drop it in place.

✅ What You Need to Know

• No need to remove and re-add content to rearrange.
