    Description

      The tracker MDL-36259 added the ability to show the shortname on some of the admin pages. There are some others that I feel should also show the shortname. I am currently working on the patches for this for the below sections.

      • In regards to Meta courses displaying
        • /enrol/instances.php?id=##
        • /enrol/users.php?id=##
      • Blocks
        • Course Overview - giving it it's own option to show shortname
