  • Instructor registration - when this option is turned on the checkbox “Register as an instructor” is shown in the registration form

  • Instructor pre-moderation - when this option is enabled the user role “instructor” is set automatically, otherwise, you need to do it manually by changing the user

  • Show instructor registration form on separate page - directs new instructors to a dedicated sign-up page
