    To test this you'll need at least 2 users and a course with those users enrolled in it.

    1) Log in as a user and go to your messages.
    2) Remove any contacts your user might have.
    3) Select your course from the messaging navigation drop down.
    4) Click the plus sign to add a course participant as a contact. You will be redirected to your contact list.

    5) Go back to the course participants page and click the cross to remove the participant as a contact. This will bring you back to the participants page.
    6) Similarly, block and then unblock a user.
    7) Click the message history icon next to a course participant and check that the relevant message history is displayed.

Description

1. Visit a course.
2. Create a group and add multiple users, including the administrator account.
3. Go to your messages via <yoursiteurl>/message/index.php
4. In the drop down select the course where you just created the group in step 2 and added yourself.
5. Attempt to remove a user and see that you can not.

Should the user be able to remove a user from a group for their course or do we just remove the icon?

The icons are being displayed incorrectly. You should be able to add the user as a contact from the list of participants. For some reason the "remove contact" icon is being displayed even though course participants are not contacts.

Here is a potential solution. While I was there I removed some code that was setting config settings that were never used. They seem to have been left over from 1.9.

Logged as a student without contacts, when I select a course from the message navigation drop down menu I see the list of participants with 'Remove contact' icon instead of the add contact icon, if I click on it nothing happens. I've experienced the same problem in 22 and master

I've retested it without being able to reproduce the problem I reported, grepping MOODLE_22_STABLE log I see it was not integrated there and the only explication I have about the fail in master is that I pick the stable site instead of integration, sorry about the confusion. The problem still exists in 22. Dan please, can you reset the status of the issue? TIA

I mistakenly believed that the HQ support period for 2.2 had ended. It actually has another month to go. I have added a 2.2 version. https://github.com/andyjdavis/moodle/compare/MOODLE_22_STABLE...MDL-36321_message_participants_22
