In the Topics Course format, when my students hit the "Show Topic N" icon, let's say Topic1, then only Topic1 content is shown. The problem is that on when a student logs on again later, Moodle somehow remembers which Topic was shown by itself from the previous user session. I want the student to be greeted by all topics, not just the one topic from the last user session. How to do this?

Put the greeting in seciton 0? (This at least is how it used to work. Section 0 is static and visible on every page when not empty).

What does this mean?
I do know that adding &topic=0 to the url will cause all topics to open, but I'm afraid I don't understand your answer. You're too fast for me right now. My brain works in kilohertz, not on gigahertz, heh.

Dear Frankie,
To stop the persistance (for all Topics courses) you need to edit 'format.php' in the '/course/format/topics' folder and change the code (at the top) from:
if ($topic != -1) {
$displaysection = course_set_display($course->id, $topic);
} else {
$displaysection = course_get_display($course->id);
}
to
if ($topic != -1) {
$displaysection = $topic;
} else {
$displaysection = 0;
}

Hi Gareth
Fantastic! It tried it and it works. Moodle 1.9.15.
Much appreciated.

Hi Itamar
At the moment my computer is broken. It refuses to roundup decimals to the nearest single digit.
