Features

Integration with Cincopa Video Plugin

Shika now integrates with Cincopa, the popular photo and video hosting platform. Course creators can now create audio/video as a lesson type using videos uploaded in Cincopa.

Ability to force learners to spend the ideal time that is configured in the lesson, failing which lesson status will be incomplete

With Shika 1.8, we have provided the ability to force learners to spend the ideal time that is configured in the lesson failing which the lesson status will be incomplete. This feature was requested by many of our subscribers as many people don’t devote the ideal amount of time that is required to complete the lesson.

Please note that for video lessons, ideal time required to complete the lesson should not exceed the actual duration of the video.
