{courses}

The third rich text markup we should look at is {courses} This variation of the "course" code will display a List of courses within your content or "block"; and can be sorted dynamically by number of filters including; by start date; alphabetical listing, and others.

For example the Courses markup could be used if you wished to create a home page... or landing page that contained the most popular courses, alternatively Courses that were about to start through the coming week.
To do so, what you would need to do is open the relevant page - home page or other, and place the following rich text markup: (replace 'yourTopicsHere' with an appropriate list)
