  • Certain activity modules may be disabled so that they do not appear in the "Add an activity" drop-down menu for teachers. The setting only applies to teachers - administrators are always able to add any activity to a course.
  • The administrator can choose to restrict modules for all courses, requested courses or no courses.
  • New courses can have the modules restricted by default if the admin checks the box Restrict modules by default
  • The allowed modules are then selected from the box as in the screenshot below:

NOTE: To disable an activity module completely, click the eye icon in the hide/show column in Settings > Site administration > Plugins > Activity modules > Manage activities.
