Easygenerator provides a possibility to collaborate on a course with any existing Easygenerator user or external person invited by e-mail.
You can add co-authors from any step of the course editor. Any existing Easygenerator user or external person can be invited by e-mail. The easiest way to invite multiple co-authors is to create a CSV file with their emails and import the whole batch by clicking Import from CSV.
Add co-authors from the organization’s list of users
While the owner and admins automatically have access to all courses within the organization, other members can easily add co-authors from the organization’s list of users.
Open the course on which you want to collaborate.
Click Co-authors in the upper right corner of the editor. When you click on “+Invite co-authors by name or email” field, the list with all the organization’s members appears in the dropdown, sorted alphabetically by the first name. A user can scroll down the list or start typing a name to quickly find it.
Click the name of a plus sign next to it to select it. Clicks Add co-authors button to send the invitations.

If you add an existing Easygenerator user, they will get an in-app invite to confirm co-authoring as well as the e-mail.
If you add a person without the Easygenerator account, they will be invited by e-mail. This person should use the same e-mail address to which the invitation is sent to register at Easygenerator.
When a co-author accepts the invite, they'll see a shared course under the Shared courses tab.
A co-author can edit the course content and settings just the same way as the author (except for adjusting the design theme - only the course owner has the permission to do this). Any changes in the course are automatically visible to all co-authors.
NOTE: Co-authors are not allowed to delete the course, they can only stop co-authoring.
In the Manage co-authors popup you can see all invited co-authors and their status (e.g.: pending registration/waiting for acceptance).
Statuses:
pending registration - an invited person doesn't have Easygenerator account yet
pending acceptance - the invite has been sent and needs to be accepted
The course owner can remove co-authors. If you remove a co-author, they will not see the shared course anymore.
