Description

On creating a new role with the legacy as student, it doesn't seem to be possible to prevent the role from editing wikis. No matter which context this is set in, whether globally., within the course or actually at wiki level, the role alwasy can edit.

Thanks,

Andrea

Hi Gordon,

the capability in charge of decide if one user can edit or not one wiki page is "mod/wiki:participate". And it defaults to "allow" for the student role.

Have you tried to override that permission in the wiki activity? Setting it to "prevent" should do the trick so your students won't be able to edit it anymore.

Note behaviour should be the same for any role, legacy or new. That capability decides.

Ciao
