Create your first Online Course with Mentor

Before creating our first post let's talk about how the courses system is built. The Course and Store system are two separate Total CMS blog systems, let's take a look at how to create our first course. Check how you can use this setup to sell multi-lesson courses.

To give you a general idea of how it all works. 

Mentor is designed with the idea of offering free registration to interested users. Once a user registers for free will be added to Sitelok (USERGROUP: CLIENT) and will be then able to login. Once the user will login into your website he will be able to:

• View the full length of your blog posts
• Comment blog posts 
• Purchase Online Courses
• View purchased courses from a private account
• Manage account data and information 

You can ask users to make a payment for their registration if you wish, even charge a monthly subscription.

After a registered user buys a course from your store, he will be added to a specific Sitelok Usergroup. When the user visits his account page will now have access to all the courses associated to that same Sitelok Usergroup.

Following this guide you will:

• Create a Usergroup and Purchase Buttons from Sitelok cPanel.
• Create a course with content your readers would love to pay for!
• Create  a product page for your store page (Marketers would call it a landing page).

Step 1 - Create a Usergroup and Purchase Buttons from Sitelok cPanel

Go to your admin area and click on the Sitelok button in the sidebar. You should be directed to the Sitelok cPanel.
