I have a course catalog with a few courses added. The visibility is set to “view” for only a few branches.

This option is working fine. Users from branches who are assigned to the catalog can view the courses.

However, users who are not assigned can also view the catalog block with a message saying, “Whoops, there's nothing here.”

Is there any option to completely hide the catalog from the users who are not assigned to it?

 

 

hmm that is odd because the catalog should only appear if assigned to users. Maybe the catalog link was shared to learners that do not have the visibility on that catalog?


I am having this same issue, except my catalog in question is part of a custom page.


My organization had a use case where we had a cohort of learners who needed to see set of learning plans, and another cohort who would not be granted access to those learning plans at all. We mitigated the "nothing here" issue by putting those plans into catalogs first, associating visibility by group, then using channel widgets on a home page to display those learning plans to the appropriate folks. So long as there was something else on the page, that second cohort wouldn’t see the channel/catalog and “nothing” message.

It took a bit of mapping out and testing but it's done the trick thus far.
