| The News forum is a special forum for general announcements. A course may only have one News forum unless it has been imported from another system which supports more than one news forum.
| |
|
| |
|
| This forum is automatically created for each course and for the [[Front Page|front page]] of the Moodle site. By default, it is placed in the top of the center section and only teachers and administrators may add posts or reply to posts. The [[Adding/editing a forum|default settings]] force every enrolled person to be subscribed to the News forum.
| |
|
| |
| The [[Latest News block]] displays a [[Course_settings#News_items_to_show|specific number]] of recent discussions from the News forum.
| |
|
| |
| As with any forum, emails can be sent to subscribed members of a News forum. To change the subject line of forum notifications, see [[Forum FAQ]]
