Thanks for the new Course Families feature! This is really helpful.
I’m finding it a bit prohibitive that the descriptor is required when adding courses to a family and that each course requires a unique descriptor.
For example, we use those separator hack courses on catalog pages and I wanted to group all them together into a Course Family called “Skilljar Hack Separator Courses” and that would be sufficient enough (no descriptor necessary). Since it was required, I tried entering the same descriptor (e.g., “Separators for Catalog Pages” for all of them) but couldn’t save it until I made them each unique.
Another example would be a group of courses on a certain product (in a Uni that offers training on multiple products) and I wanted to create a family of Product A courses, Product B courses, etc. Also didn’t feel like each course required descriptors, so copied the names into each to make them unique so it’s just duplicative info displaying.
Perhaps I’m missing the importance of unique descriptors for each, but wondering if others might find these requirements a bit restricting as well. Any reason they can’t be set to optional and the unique descriptor criteria lifted?
