Cannot edit a copied module?
Originally asked by a community member in the Litmos Community forum on 22 October 2025.
Hey!
We do annual training, which I do not want to re-create from scratch every year, but rather update it.
I copied all of the modules I created from scratch the first time around, but to my surprise there is no way to edit the COPY of the original module... what is the point of copying it?
Can someone please help me here, hopefully I am just missing something. If not, please Litmos can you add this ability...
Thank you!

I am guessing what I will have to do is change the original training to have the copies, and then just every year edit the true original modules...

Hey Jonathan, thanks for the question.
Are you talking about modules created in CAT?
If so, i've just been advised that this ability has recently been added.
Let me know if you're having trouble finding it and i'll reach out to support to get some more information 🙂
Thanks - Greg

Hey Greg! Thanks for the reply.
I created all modules using the "Content Author" feature in litmos. When I go to add a module to a new course, I hit "Copy" and even though on the original modules there is an option under "preview" that says "Content Author", the new copy of the module is missing that option. There is only preview, save and cancel as options. I did just check again and I do not see the option to edit a copied version.
Thank you again!
