Delete a course
In this article: How to permanently remove a course from your Ruzuku account, including the steps to take when students are still enrolled.
All Plans
Before you start
Deleting a course is permanent. There is no undo, no trash folder, and no way to recover the course after deletion. All content, student data, and course settings are removed.
If you think you might want the course back later, consider archiving it instead. Archiving closes enrollment and hides the course from your active list, but keeps everything intact so you can restore it later.
Before deleting, make sure you have a backup of any content you want to keep. See Back up your course for recommendations.
Delete a course with enrolled students
If your course has students enrolled, you need to remove them first. The fastest way is to archive the course, which gives you the option to remove all students at once.
- Go to your Courses page.
- Find the course you want to delete and click the gear icon on the course card.
- Click Archive Course.
- You'll see an option to remove all students at once. Click it to unenroll everyone and cancel any active subscriptions or payment plans.
- Once all students are removed and the course is closed for enrollment, open the Manage Course menu and select Delete Course.
Delete a course with no students
If no students are enrolled, you can delete the course directly.
- Go to your Courses page.
- Click the gear icon on the course card and select Delete Course.
- A confirmation window appears.
- Type DELETE in all caps exactly as shown.
- Click Delete Course.
The course is now permanently removed from your account.
