How do I make an item available only at a specific time?

Users can set the availability of a Resource file or folder to display to site participants at a specific date and time and become hidden at a specific date and time. By default, instructors can view all items in a site regardless of item availability settings.

Go to Resources.

Select the Resources tool from the Tool Menu of your site.

Click Actions, and then select Edit Details.

  1. Click the Actions option associated with a file or folder.
  2. Select Edit Details.
