Navigating the Wistudi Platform
Wistudi is designed around a clear navigation system that separates learning, content creation, learner management, and account controls.
The exact navigation items available to you may depend on:
- Whether you are in Learner Space or Creator Space
- Which features you have unlocked
- Your account permissions
- The type of content you are viewing
- The current Wistudi release
This guide explains the main navigation, page header, profile menu, search tools, workspace controls, and common ways to move through the platform.
Main Navigation
The main navigation gives you access to the primary areas of Wistudi.
Depending on your current space, it may include:
- Dashboard
- Discover
- Library
- My Progress
- Workspace
- Creator Tools
- Analytics

- Profile
- Settings
Some items may remain hidden until they become relevant or unlock through platform activity.

The space switcher allows you to move between Learner Space and Creator Space.
It is normally located near the top or bottom of the main navigation, depending on the current layout.
To switch spaces:
- Open the main navigation.
- Find the current space name.
- Select the space switcher.
- Choose Learner Space or Creator Space.

Collapsing and Expanding the Navigation
The main navigation may be expanded or collapsed.
Expanded navigation
The expanded view shows:

Collapsed navigation
The collapsed view uses less screen space and may show only icons.
Hover over or select an icon to confirm its function when labels are hidden.
The collapsed view can be useful on smaller desktop screens, especially when working inside the Flow Builder or reports.
Navigation Themes
Wistudi may use different visual themes to distinguish platform spaces.
For example:
- Learner Space may use a lighter theme.
- Creator Space may use a darker theme.
- Icons and highlights may use different accent colours.

These visual differences help reduce confusion when switching between learning and creator tasks.

Depending on the page, it may include:
- Page title

- Search
- Filters
- View controls
- Content status

- Primary action buttons
The header changes based on the current platform area.
For example, the Workspace header may show content filters, while the Flow Builder header may show preview, status, and settings controls.

Breadcrumbs show where you are within Wistudi.
For example:
Workspace → Flow Name → Collection → Page
Breadcrumbs can help you:
- Understand the content hierarchy
- Return to a previous level
- Confirm which Flow or Page you are editing

Save and Exit
Some creation areas may include Save and Exit.
This action saves the current work and returns you to the Workspace or previous page.

Common keyboard actions may include:
