Template:Moodle site - basic structure

This page requires updating for Moodle 2.2. Please do so and remove this template when finished.


Please refer to these notes before editing this page.


My Moodle is a customisable "dashboard" page for providing users with links to their courses and activities within them, such as unread forum posts and upcoming assignments.


Enabling My Moodle

Setting default home page for users:

Site Administration > Appearance > Navigation

Setting My Moodle as the default page site-wide


Log in to your Moodle site. Type the word "my" at the end of the URL in the URL window. Click your return button.

This will take you to your "My Moodle" Page.


Sticky blocks in My Moodle

An administrator can choose which blocks appear on the My Moodle page i.e. sticky blocks as follows:

  1. Access Site administration > Appearance > Default My Moodle page.
  2. Select the required blocks from the "Add a block" drop-down menu. Configure each block as desired.
  3. Reposition blocks using the arrow icons in the block headers.

Managing blocks

By default, users are allowed to add blocks to their My Moodle page. This can be prevented by editing the authenticated user role and changing the moodle/my:manageblocks capability from allow to not set.
