Collections

Create collections to organize content, courses, and events into one curated browsing experience for your members.

Collections let you group related resources together in one place. You can build a collection with content, courses, events, or a mix of all three, then organize those items so members can easily browse what they need.


Collections are useful for building support centers, learning hubs, topic-based resource libraries, and event follow-up pages.


Create a collection

To create a collection:

  1. Open your dashboard and go to: Collections > Community Collections > Add Collection.

  2. Select New Collection.

  3. Enter the collection details:

    • Collection Name

    • Collection URL

    • Cover Image (optional)

    • Description (optional)

    • Tags (optional)

    • Access

    • Layout

    • Visibility

  4. Save your collection.

Once the collection is created, you can start adding folders and items.

Add folders

Folders help you organize larger collections into clear sections.

Collections support up to three levels:

  • At the top level, you can add folders or items

  • Inside a second-level folder, you can add folders or items

  • Inside a third-level folder, you can add items

Each folder can include:

  • Folder Name

  • Cover Image (optional)

  • Tags (optional)

  • Description (optional)

This makes it easier to group related resources and keep larger collections easy to navigate.

Add items to a collection

You can add:

  • Content

  • Events

  • Courses

When adding items, you can browse the available list, search by keyword, and use filters to narrow results.

Add content

You can add community content and club-promoted content to a collection.

Items that are already in the collection cannot be selected again. Unpublished content can still be added.

Add events

You can add events to a collection and use search and event filters to find the right items.

Add courses

You can add courses and learning paths to a collection and use search and course filters to find the right items.

Organize collection items

After you add items, you can control how they appear in the collection.

Set the default sort order

Collections support two default sorting options:

  • Latest
    Displays items by their most recent publish date. Folders are ordered by when they were created.

  • Manual
    Lets you drag and reorder items yourself.

Members can also sort by Popular, which orders items and folders by page views.

Move items and folders

You can move an item or folder to another folder in the same collection or back to the top level of the collection.

Remove items and folders

You can remove individual items from a collection at any time.

You can also remove a folder. Removing a folder also removes the items inside it from that collection.

How collections appear to members

Collections open in a dedicated collection page designed for browsing.

Collection navigation

Members can open a collection from different places in your community. Breadcrumbs show where they are as they move through the collection and its folders.

Search and filters

Members can search within a collection and apply filters to narrow results. Search terms and selected filters work together, so results match both.

Layout options

Collections can be displayed in two layouts:

  • List View
    Shows all item types in a single list.

  • Grid View
    Shows items in a card-based layout.

Folders display the total number of items they contain, including items in sub-folders.

Use collections across your community

Collections can be used in multiple parts of your community.

Content collections

Use content collections to organize related content for browsing in your content experience.

Course collections

Course collections can appear on the Courses page so members can browse grouped learning resources.

Event collections

Event collections can appear on the Events page so members can browse related events and supporting resources together.

Community collections page

You can also create a dedicated Collections page to showcase selected collections in sections.

Manage all collections

Your collections management page gives you a full view of the collections in your community.

From this page, you can review details such as:

  • cover image

  • number of items

  • collection name

  • URL

  • visibility

  • access

  • where the collection is used

  • tags

  • created date

  • created by

You can also create, edit, and delete collections from this page.

If a collection is being used elsewhere in your community, you’ll see a warning before deleting it.

Visibility and access

Collections respect the visibility and access settings of the items inside them.

This means:

  • members only see items they have access to

  • item counts only include items visible to that member

  • collections with no visible items will not appear to that member

Common ways to use collections

Build a support center

Create a collection for onboarding, account setup, product education, or troubleshooting, then use folders to organize resources by topic.

Group event resources together

Create a collection with upcoming events, recordings, recap posts, and follow-up resources in one place.

Build a learning hub

Combine courses, supporting content, and events around a single topic to create a more guided learning experience.

Best practices

To keep collections easy to use:

  • organize each collection around a clear topic or audience

  • use folders when a collection includes many items

  • add short descriptions so members know what they’ll find

  • use List View for text-heavy collections

  • use Grid View for a more visual browsing experience

  • use tags and filters to help members find relevant resources faster
