This allows you to present users with a message after completion.  If you want students to be sent somewhere or to see something other than "Your answers have been saved" after completing a Feedback activity, you can put a URL in '''Site after submit''' and/or some text in '''Page after submit''' respectively.  If you fill them both in, the students will first see whatever text you put in '''Page after submit''', then click '''Continue''' and be sent to the URL in '''Site after submit'''.  If you leave them both blank, the students will just see a "Your answers have been saved" message.  Neither of these fields are required for a student to answer the questions, but they must click the '''Answer the questions...''' link to start the Feedback activity.

The group mode can be defined at two levels:

==Restrict access/Activity completion==

* Course level - The group mode defined at the course level is the default mode for all activities defined within that course
These settings are visible if [[Conditional activities]] and [[Activity completion]] have been enabled in the site and the course.
