Front Page settings

From MoodleDocs

Location: Administration > Front Page > Front Page settings


The site front page is similar to a course page. Administrators can edit the front page by clicking the "Turn editing on" button in the top right corner of the front page.

Front page settings include the following options:


Moca Learning Center

Moca Home

Administration Community Head Start

Education Annually (Ex.First Aid) Policy Regional (Ex.Time sheet)

Teacher Transportation Maintenance Special Areas Policies

News items to show

This setting only applies if the front page is set to display news items or if you are using the Latest News block.

Default front page role

Moodle1.9

To enable logged-in users to participate in front page activities, a default front page role, such as student, can be set.

Note: The default front page role should never be set to Guest.

In versions of Moodle prior to 1.9, you can enable logged-in users to participate in front page activities by setting an authenticated user role override or by assigning users a front page role.
