===Available from===
The time from which participants may enter the activity.


===Due===
==Activity settings==
The due date (and time) participants are expected to complete the requirements of the activity.


With this setting, the dataform remains accessible after the specified time, but the entry 'time modified' will be highlighted if later than the specified time.

==Views==


==Filters==


===Required entries===
==Import==
The number of entries each student is required to enter before the database activity can be considered complete. The student will see a reminder message if s/he has not submitted the required number of entries.


===Entries required before viewing===
==Export==
The number of entries the student needs to submit before s/he can see entries by other students. If the student has not submitted the required number of entries, s/he will only see the entry page and not the list or single view pages.


''Note'': If entries are required before viewing, the database auto-linking filter should be disabled. This is because the database auto-linking filter can't determine whether a user has submitted the required number of entries.
==RSS==


===Maximum entries===
==Javascript==
The maximum number of entries the student can submit before s/he is blocked. This prevents people from spamming the system, either in the hope that one entry is good enough or, on a public site, as a way of advertising.


===Comments===
==CSS==
Enables commenting on entries. The comments field appears on the single view template when this is enabled.


===Require approval?===
==Backup/restore==
Allows you to require each entry to be approved by someone with the appropriate role before other users can view it.
 
===RSS articles===
Enables you to publish an RSS feed of entries in the dataform. The option here sets the number of entries available in the feed.
 
''Note'': RSS feeds need to be enabled by your system administrator.
 
===Allow posts to be rated?===
Lets you allow posts to be rated, which will enter a score in the gradebook for the student’s submissions in the database. The grade is set using the dropdown menu below this option.
 
==Common module settings==
See [[Common module settings]] for more information.  Essentially you can set how different [[Groups]] in the course see or interact with each other and set an ID for grading purposes in this area.
 
==Site administration settings==
 
The dataform has additional settings which may be changed by an administrator in ''Settings > Site administration > Plugins > Activity modules > Dataform''.
 
===Enabling RSS feeds===
 
RSS feeds must first be enabled in ''Settings > Site administration > Server > [[RSS]]''.
