          Description

          The permissions for the view participant capability are not effective unless changed in both the role and in course permissions.

          Only one should be required for this to be effective.

              Thanks for reporting this, Ray.

              It's certainly worth having a look at.

              Hi Ray thank you for reporting this.

              However, I could not reproduce the issue on current 2.1.3 version. Both scenarios above (either prevent it from define role or override student course in course) prevent student from accessing participant page.

              Could you please update your distribution and re-test this issue again? If you still having an issue, please provide more information on how to reproduce this.

              Thanks
              Rosie
