FLO Help for Students
Your Topics in FLO
Access to your topics
Most topics in FLO are made available to students 7 days before the start date of the topic.
After most topics end you will have continued access for a further 365 days, after which time you will no longer be able to access your topic or its content. Before you lose access to your topic it is highly recommended that you make a copy of any content that you might like to refer to later. You can check when your access is scheduled to expire by looking on your 'my FLO' page
Organising your topics
FLO initially separates your topics into yearly and 'additional' tabs. When you 'favourite' topics a 'favourites' tab will be generated also.
As you progress through your studies from semester to semester your FLO homepage may start to look a little crowded as most of your topics stay active for 365 days after completion. This means at any one time you could have up to two years’ worth of content on FLO.
To simplify your FLO you may like to rearrange the order of your topics, hide some topics from view, or 'favourite' selected topics.
- How to 'favourite' topics
First click 'my topics' to view all your topics.
Click the yellow star beside the topics you would like to 'favourite'
Any topic you favourite will appear at the top of your 'my topics' list with a bright yellow star and will appear in your 'favourites' tab.
You can remove a favourited topic by clicking again on the bright yellow star. - How to hide topics from view
First click 'customise this page'.
Then, to hide a particular topic from view, select the 'eye' icon beside it.
To save your changes click 'stop customising this page'.
When you have topics hidden, a notice appears above the yearly tabs that informs you of the number of hidden topics. If you wish to unhide a topic, you can unclick the ‘eye’ icon or simply use the ‘unhide all topics’ option on the hidden topic notification.
- How to reorder your topics
First click 'customise this page'.
Then, use the arrow icons beside the topic to click and drag your topic to its desired location.
