**Please Note:**

My Lists are unique to your account so any edits you do will not change or affect the original learning module.  

### Folders

We have a folder system to help you organize your lists. You can create a new folder by clicking the 'New Folder button at the top of the page.

![Screenshot 2026-10-28 at 9.28.42 AM](https://help.musicplay.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-10-28%20at%209.28.42%20AM.png?width=670&height=260&name=Screenshot%202026-10-28%20at%209.28.42%20AM.png)

#### Adding lists to folders

Once the folder is created, there are several ways to add a list to them. First, you can click and hold on the list and drag it into the folder. You can drag it to either the main view or the side view. Once it's over the folder you want it to be in, let go and the list will be moved.

You can also add a list to a folder by clicking the small folder icon on the list in the main view. This will bring up a menu you can use to select the folder, then click the 'Move to folder' button in the bottom right to make the change.

You can also place folders within other folders using the drag and drop method. There is no limit to how many folders you can place in other folders.

Note: A list or other folder cannot be added to more than one folder at a time.

 

### Adding Resources to your List

1. Go to the resource you would like to add to your list (a song, game, activity, video, etc.)![Screenshot 2023-09-29 at 2.26.51 PM](https://help.musicplay.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202023-09-29%20at%202.26.51%20PM.png?width=670&height=770&name=Screenshot%202023-09-29%20at%202.26.51%20PM.png)

5. Click on "Add to List"
6. To close the list click on the yellow button " Add to My List" again.

 

### Editing a List

1. Select My Lists on Left Menu.
2. Click on the list you would like to edit.
3. Next to the list's title you will see a "More Actions" button that will reveal the Share, Edit Info, Clone and Delete actions for that list.![Screenshot 2024-07-30 at 2.18.03 PM](https://help.musicplay.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-07-30%20at%202.18.03%20PM.png?width=373&height=229&name=Screenshot%202024-07-30%20at%202.18.03%20PM.png)
4. For every activity there are five options: 
     1. The pencil flips the activity into editing mode where you can edit the activity's name and teaching description.
     2. The up arrow will move the activity up one activity.
     3. The down arrow will move the activity down on activity.
     4. The trash can will delete the activity from your list.
     5. The Add to My List button lets you add that procedure to another of your lists.

#### Add an external link, PDF, JPEG, etc.

   ![Screenshot 2026-06-05 at 10.21.43 AM](https://help.musicplay.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-06-05%20at%2010.21.43%20AM.png?width=503&height=189&name=Screenshot%202026-06-05%20at%2010.21.43%20AM.png)
2. Fill in the Title of your activity in the box titled "Title."
3. Paste the URL in the box titled "Link URL."
4. Write the text you would like to appear on the button in the box titled "Link Text."
5. Write any teaching notes you would like to appear in the activity in the box titled "Teaching Notes."

**Pro Tip!**

Upload a file to your LMS and paste it into the "Link URL" box to give students access to a worksheet. You can do this with any file as long as you can link to it and students can access the linked file.

### Sharing Lists

You can share your Lists with with your students or with other teachers! Lists have a 'Visibility' setting which can be set when being created or when editing the details of a list.

![Screenshot 2024-07-30 at 2.03.27 PM](https://help.musicplay.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-07-30%20at%202.03.27%20PM.png?width=670&height=242&name=Screenshot%202024-07-30%20at%202.03.27%20PM.png)

The private setting allows you to share your list with ONLY your students using your student code. Anyone trying to access the list from a different account will get a 404 error page.

The shareable setting allows anyone with an account to view the list via a link. This includes both other teachers with their account and any student code, not just yours.

### Bulk Actions for Lists

You can take bulk actions for your MyLists or folders. This includes Deleting, Marking as Private or Public, and Archiving.

To use the bulk actions, you can select the lists or folders you wish to edit using the check boxes on the left side as shown here:

![Screenshot 2026-10-28 at 9.21.52 AM](https://help.musicplay.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-10-28%20at%209.21.52%20AM.png?width=670&height=298&name=Screenshot%202026-10-28%20at%209.21.52%20AM.png)

Once you have selected what you wish to edit, you can click the Edit dropdown in the top right to take one of the following actions:

![](https://help.musicplay.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-12-06%20at%209-58-33%E2%80%AFAM-png.png?width=208&height=298&name=Screenshot%202024-12-06%20at%209-58-33%E2%80%AFAM-png.png)

\- Archive: This moves the selected items to the archive view

-Delete: This will permanently delete the selected items.

\- Mark as Private: Set the Privacy setting on all the selected lists as Private to me and My Students

\- Mark as Public: Sets the privacy setting to Shareable to anyone with an active teacher license 

Please use caution when bulk deleting, as once they have been deleted they cannot be restored.

 

### Archiving MyLists

If your MyList section is starting to feel cluttered, but you don't want to delete any lists, you can now add lists to an archived view. Archived lists do not appear in the main view of your lists, and can only be viewed by selecting Archived lists in the View dropdown here:

![](https://help.musicplay.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-12-06%20at%2010-07-44%E2%80%AFAM-png.png?width=622&height=273&name=Screenshot%202024-12-06%20at%2010-07-44%E2%80%AFAM-png.png)

![](https://help.musicplay.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-12-06%20at%2010-08-45%E2%80%AFAM-png.png?width=670&height=171&name=Screenshot%202024-12-06%20at%2010-08-45%E2%80%AFAM-png.png)

 

To Archive a list, you can use the Bulk actions (as described above). You can also archive a list by editing the Visibility setting when editing an individual List.
