Programs not showing courses

When i set up a program and go to add courses only the courses created in Totara appear and non of the courses that were created prior show up. Is there a way to get them "registered" in Totara so that they can be added to programs?

Thanks

Courses were created in moodle and show up on "Find Courses" Page but only the courses I created since we added Totara are showing in the Add Courses part of the manage programs add content All of the categories show up.

Hi Walter,

I've looked into this and I think I know what's going on.

Because programs use course completion to work out when each item is completed, it doesn't really make sense to add courses to a program if they don't use course completion. Therefore courses with completion disabled are hidden in the dialog.

You should be able to fix it by enabling course completion in your old moodle courses.

Clearly this isn't the best way to handle this case as there is no indication to you why the courses don't appear - we'll see what we can do to improve the interface to make this clear.
