| ==My home==
| |
| My home is a customisable "dashboard" page for providing users with links to their courses and activities within them, such as unread forum posts and upcoming assignments.
| |
| | |
| My home usually has the [[Course overview block]] in the central column. Users can customize their My home page and add and remove blocks by clicking the 'Customise this page' button.

| |
| | |
| The navigation block includes a My home link directly above or below the Site home link. Once a regular user is logged in, the My courses link will also take them to their My home page.

| | |
| ==Default home page==
| |
| | |
| | |
| Users with the Site administrator role cannot set My home as their default home page.
| |
| | |
| ==Setting the default My home page for new users==
| |
| | |
| An administrator or manager (or other user with the capability [[Capabilities/moodle/my:configsyspages|moodle/my:configsyspages]]) can set which content (course overview, calendar, blocks) appears on the My home page for new users as follows:
| |
| | |
| | |
| # Select the required blocks from the "Add a block" drop-down menu. [[Block settings|Configure]] each block as desired
| |
| # Reposition blocks using the arrow icons in the block headers
| |
| | |
| ==Adding a block to the My home page for all users==
| |
| | |
| An administrator can add a new block to the My home page for all existing users (not only new users) as follows:
| |
| | |
| # Turn editing on for the front page
| |
| # Add the block to the front page
| |
| # Edit where the block appears and set the page contexts to 'Display throughout the entire site'
| |
| # Go to your My home page and again edit where the block appears and set 'Display on page types' to 'My home page'
| |
| | |
| ==Preventing users from customizing their My home page==
| |
| | |
| By default, users can customize their My home page and add blocks. An admin can prevent this as follows:
| |
| | |
| # Go to ''Administration > Site administration > Users > Permissions > Define roles''
| |
| # Edit the authenticated user role and untick the [[Capabilities/moodle/my:manageblocks|Manage My home page blocks capability]] | |
| | |
| ==My Moodle capabilities==
| |
| | |
| * [[Capabilities/moodle/my:manageblocks|Manage My home page blocks]] (see above)
| |
| * [[Capabilities/moodle/my:configsyspages|Configure system templates for My home pages]]
| |
| | |
| In addition, all blocks which may be added to a My home page have a ''myaddinstance'' capability (e.g. [[Capabilities/block/comments:myaddinstance|block/comments:myaddinstance]]) for controlling whether a user with a particular role can add the block.
| |
| | |
| ==Preventing users from adding a block to their My home page==
| |
| | |
| By default, users can add many blocks to their My home page. An admin can prevent them from adding a particular block, such as the [[Online users block]], as follows:
| |
| | |
| # Go to ''Administration > Site administration > Users > Permissions > Define roles''
| |
| # Edit the authenticated user role and untick the [[Capabilities/block/online users:myaddinstance|Add a new online users block to the My home page capability]]
| |
| | |
| ==Blocks not available on My home==
| |
| | |
| The following blocks may not be added to a user's My home page (because it wouldn't make sense):
| |
| | |
| *[[Course completion status block]]
| |
| *[[Course/site summary block]]
| |
| *[[Self completion block]]
| |
