Talk:Role contexts

Reason for page

Obviously this is a core concept concerning capabilities in Moodle. I wanted to give a simple overview for Teachers. Not sure what technical things need to be laid out for Administrators and Developers who may have a much deeper understanding of the complexity of context and permissions. --Chris collman 11:41, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Yes, contexts are a core concept in Moodle, in a sense the are the skeleton of the information architecture, or navigation structure of the whole site. As such, we really need a clear page that describes what they are. However, they affect more than just roles, so I still want to rename this page. I should probably stop moaning, and re-write this page myself ;-)--Tim Hunt 03:35, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Good point, do it <evil grin>. I do not know what else to say (about context) :) I cloned the name for this page from the existing page "Role permissions", My first choice would be simply to call it "Context" and the other one "Permission". I will try to anticipate you and do a copy and a redirect for the moment, to "Context". --Chris collman 10:15, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
