      Description

      • I have a new role that is a copy of student and is named "FolderOwner": only change is, that the role student: mod/folder:managefiles is set "allowed"
      • I have a folder X in a certain course
      • I assign the role FolderOwner for the folder X to a student

      This works:

      • I set "Display folder content" to "On a seperate page" for folder X
        => I cklick on the folder an get to the new page with an "Edit"-Button => works as intended

      This does not work:

      • I set "Display folder content" to "inline on the course page" for folder X
        => there is no possibility to manage the files in the folder now
