| The News forum is a special forum for general announcements. A course may only have one News forum.
| |
| | |
| This forum is automatically created for each course and for the [[Front Page|front page]] of the Moodle site. By default, it is placed in the top of the center section and only teachers and administrators may add posts or reply to posts. Also the [[Adding/editing a forum|default settings]] forces every enroled person to be subscribed to the News forum.
| |
| | |
| The [[Latest News block]] displays a [[Course_settings#News_items_to_show|specific number]] of recent discussions from the News forum.
| |
| | |
| As with any forum, emails can be sent to subscribed members of a News forum.
| |
