    • MOODLE_24_STABLE, MOODLE_25_STABLE, MOODLE_26_STABLE
    • MOODLE_25_STABLE, MOODLE_26_STABLE
    • Hide

      Use a server with conditional access and "Enable group members only" enabled.

      Test 1 - staff view of section

      As a staff member with "view hidden topics" permission:

      • Create a grouping in a course
      • For a section in the course, edit the section and restrict access only to that grouping
      • Confirm that you see an indication that the section is restricted to the grouping

      Test 2 - student view of section

      • Log in as a student in one of the groups in the grouping above:
      • Confirm that you see the section

      Test 3 - student can't see section

      • Log in as a student not in one of the groups in the grouping above:
      • Confirm that you do not see the section

      Test 4 - staff view of activity (no regressions)

      As a staff member with "view hidden topics" permission:

      • Create an activity in the course from test 1, setting the grouping to the same as in test 1
      • Confirm that the activity is visible and that the grouping is shown beside it in brackets
      • Confirm that the access restrictions are not also displayed below the course module

      It looks like that course formats no longer displays the grouping that has been set under the section.

      This looks like it's been caused by MDL-36095, which looks like it made changes to deal with providing "Available until" messages.

      This is happening on Moodle 2.4 for us and is confusing as under 2.3 this information was displayed and was useful in courses.

      To replicate (on a server with conditional access enabled), as a staff member with "view hidden topics" permission:

      1. Create a grouping in a course
      2. For a topic in the course, edit the topic and restrict access only to that grouping
      3. You see no indication that the topic is restricted to the grouping (unlike for other conditions where staff are shown full details of the restrictions)
