Starting with the Enterprise licence model, you have the option of creating your own custom task sections in addition to the standard task sections – perfect for tailoring content even better to your business! 🎯
🔧 What are individual task steps?
Individual task steps are freely definable categories that you can create in addition to the existing standard sections (which are based on the model of the complete action) in the learning tasks and there in the task steps. This allows you to structure special training courses, internal processes or project-related content even more clearly, for example.
🎨 Design options
To ensure that your task sections not only function well but also fit in with your company's image, MLS offers the following customisation options:
Colour selection in RGB/HEX or HSL format
You can assign a unique colour to each individual section – simply enter the desired RGB/HEX or HSL value, e.g. rgb(255, 99, 71) for a vibrant tomato red 🍅.
Upload your own icon
Upload an individual icon in PNG format that visually supports the section. Ideal for recognition and branding! 🖼️
📁 How to create a custom task step
Go to the ‘Administration’ section and select ‘Task steps’.
There you will see an overview of all individual work steps that have already been created. You can either edit existing ones or create new ones here.
🆕 Create new task step
Click on ‘Create’. In the next step, you can
give the task step a short title (max. 14 characters) using the ✏️ symbol,
adjust the colour in the RGB/HEX/HSL scheme and
upload your own icon in PNG format.
Here is an example:
Tip: You can also select the HEX or HSL colour value mode using the arrow icon next to RGB. If you do not know your colour values, you can upload a screenshot of your website to a tool such as imagecolorpicker.com. 🎨
You can also delete the task step you have created, as long as it is not included in any learning task.
⚙️ Adjust existing task steps
You can also edit task steps at any time. To do so, simply click on the one you want to change:
There, you can customise the title, colour and/or icon, just like when creating a new one.
Important: If you change a task step, this will affect all learning tasks in which it is included. So if a colleague has created a task step, consult with them before changing it.
📑 Integrate task steps into learning tasks
When you create a learning task and have created individual task steps, you can decide whether you want to use the standard symbols (General tab) or the individual ones.
Of course, you can also change the category for the task step later. To do this, click on the work step and select a different category.
🗑️ Deleting individual task steps
As long as individual task steps are not yet integrated into learning tasks, you can delete them at any time.
If they are already integrated into learning tasks, you can only delete them once they have been completely removed from all learning tasks in which they are integrated. You can see where each task step is integrated and access the learning task with a single click.
💡 Tips
Use colours and icons that match your corporate design.
Keep the names of the task steps clear and understandable.
Icons should be square and at least 256×256 pixels in size for optimal display.
