The message block will display a list of new messages you have received, and links to your message page.
To add a Messages block to your course page:
 
#Turn on the editing either from the gear menu (Boost theme) or the Course administration block in other themes
Clicking Messages opens a new page with three tabs:  
#Select Messages from the Add blocks link in the nav drawer (Boost theme) or drop down in other themes.
 
#If appropriate, move the Messages block up and/or left, using the arrow icons under the block title.
==Contacts==
By default the contact list is empty. In order to send a message or to create a shortcut to the person you are sending, go to the Search tab.

==Search==
 
The search tab allows you to search for a person from among the students only in your course or all students registered on the platform. You can also search messages typing a keyword (in the Keywords field) and defining a few search criteria such as whether or not include blocked users or whether search only messages from (or to) you or do both.

==Settings==
Here you can decide on having a popup Message window whenever you get a new message, blocking messages from people who are not on your Contacts list, having an audio signal for a new message, using a HTML editor, or getting email messages when you are offline.
