A default `Advanced Module List` for all new courses

[Mahyar Damavand]

Is this possible to define a default `Advanced Module List` for every course is being created?

I want to simplify adding some common x-blocks for course creators. any suggestion?

Thanks in advanced.

Any help on this would be appriciated

Probably there is no settings for this. but I need your guidance to find a template for course advanced settings.

I will then make a fork of open-edx and make my changes there.

Thank you very much

Hi Mahyar,

We use a skeleton course where a blank course is exported after defining the advanced settings.  For each new course, we take a start by importing the skeleton course. May be helpful till your desired functionality is not available.

Fantastic trick,

Thank you for your answer.

So there is not a template I can edit to manage this in the code?

We have hundreds of school teachers and it's hard to teach them to import a template course. Also I'm sure many of them will forgot to do so :(

        default=[], # this is where you can add the default values <<<-------------------

        help=_("Enter the names of the advanced modules to use in your course."),
