# Configure catalogue settings for Totara Engage

## Featured resources and playlists

You can choose to mark some of your resources and playlists as **Featured learning** so they are highlighted and displayed at the top of the catalogue.

1. Go to *Quick-access menu > Courses and categories > Configure catalogue*.
2. On the **General** tab tick the **Enable** checkbox for **Featured learning**.
3. Select **Topics** from the first dropdown list.
4. Select a topic from the second dropdown list.
5. Click **Save**.

## **Template**

When configuring the catalogue you can also set up templates for how Engage resource tiles/cards and details are shown to ensure that items are displayed consistently across the catalogue.

## **Filters**

With Totara Engage there are several additional filters that can help users to find playlists and resources in the catalogue.

- **Topics:** This filter allows the user to look for resources and playlists with a specific topic assigned
- **Learning type:** This filter can be used to show only resources or playlists
- **Duration:** This filter allows the user to limit the results to resources with a duration of **0-5 minutes**, **5-10 minutes**, or **Over 10 minutes**
