Rename a course or change its unique ID

Change the title or the unique ID of a course on its Settings tab.

The title is the name of the course in the course overview and in the course itself. The unique ID is your own reference, for example a course code. It is shown under the title on the course card and has to be unique on your platform. You change both on the Settings tab of the course.
