Dear Developers


There are 3 view options for viewing files in File Picker: View as icons, View as table, View as a list (https://docs.moodle.org/27/en/File_picker).

 

Is there a way to change default display settings in File Picker? ..On site level and/or user level.

will appreciate your help,

Ana

No, there is no such option. Neither site level, nor user level. Currently, the default view mode ("icons") seems to be hardcoded. There is a TODO note left in the code that there should be a better way to handle this.

There is a relevant issue in the tracker MDL-33541 but as far as I could (not) find, the follow-up issue was never created. You may want to report this as a feature request in our tracker.
