Administration block: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 11:34, 2 September 2020

The administration block is used to provide context-sensitive links to settings pages when using the Classic theme or a theme based on Classic. (The standard Boost theme uses a navigation drawer instead.) Note that Grades and Competencies are shown in the Navigation block instead of the administration block.

What appears in the administration block depends upon where the user is and what role they have in that location. For example, a site administrator on the front page will have Front page settings while a teacher in a course will have more options in Course administration than a student.

Here are examples of the Administration block:

Admin view Classic theme
Teacher course view Classic theme
