I need to hide certain blocks from students, but keep them visible for the administrators. I haven't used roles before so we've just been just been making them visible when we need to use them. I'm testing 1.9 and I see an assign roles in the block settings (which I haven't touched yet, but I'm assuming is how I should do it), but is this the type of thing that would be better done/can it be done globally. Not every block will need to hidden, but certain one's will need to be hidden all the time from students. Maybe I'm missing a setting, but I don't see individual block settings in the roles profile settings.
Other than the blocks, I need to keep students from seeing which other classes someone else is enrolled in. I'm just getting acquainted with 1.9, but am I correct in that this is now the default behavior unless students are in the same class? If not, exactly which settings would need to be changed to accomplish my goal.
Thanks in advance,
Todd
