The news forum is a special forum that is automatically created for each course and for the front page of the site, and is a place for general announcements. By default, it is placed in the top of the center section and only teachers and administrators may add news or reply to news. By the [[Adding/editing a forum|default settings]], everyone is forced to be subscribed to the news forum in a course.


The [[Latest News block]] displays a [[Course_settings#News_items_to_show|specific number]] of recent discussions from the news forum. A course may only have one news forum.
