Can you give me some examples about permissions?

When you logged into the site you were given the system role of Authenticated User. You are also enrolled in a course and given the student role. Let's look at a single capability called X to see how permissions work.

In the example below we are just talking about the permissions for a single capability in the course role of a Student and the system role of Authenticated user for 1 user.

  • If Student (at course level) is Prevent, and Student (at site level) is Allow then you are NOT allowed to do X
  • If Student (at course level) is Prevent , and Authenticated user (at site level) is Allow, then you are NOT allowed to do X.
  • If Student (at course level) is Allow, and Authenticated user (at site level) is Prevent, then you ARE allowed to do X.
  • If Student (at course level) is Prohibit, and Authenticated user is Allow, then you are NOT allowed to do X.
  • If Student (at course level) is Allow, and Authenticated user is Prohibit, then you are NOT allowed to do X.
