On the attendance Sessions tab, is there any way to set the default view to "All" instead of "Weeks"?

Our faculty always found it very confusing especially when they would take attendance a week or 2 after the class had ended (usually when classes first start in the semester) only to be defaulted to the "weeks" tab and seeing a blank list.  Even with that knowledge, its the default view for all newly created courses and a bit of a hassle to switch tabs back to "all".

Hi Derek,


It is not currently configurable via the modules settings interface.


However, in the short term you can change your local copy of manage.php so the default for $pageparams->view is '5'. That will set the page view to all every time you go to the sessions tab with a view argument. I would ensure that all your users are happy with this before rolling it out.
