Permission to See Student Grades but Hide Hidden Grades

We're trying to create a role which can see the gradebook for all students but not the hidden activities. Is there any permission which cannot see hidden activities in the gradebook, but which can see the grades of all students?


We are putting together a read-only role for a Moodle novice to allow them to oversee our school's Moodle. They should see everything that is visible to any student, but nothing else and in particular, we want to hide hidden categories, courses, activities and gradebook entries.


I have looked through the permissions and I suspect that there is no appropriate one, but we would appreciate any suggestions which may help.

You could try the Grade viewer role although I haven't checked it to see if they are able to see hidden activities but it could be a starting point for you.

I'm trying to setup a read-only role for moodle 2.6 following de Grade viewer article but I can't find the "mod/assign:viewgrades" to allowing (may be it is present on moodle 2.8)

I find the mod/assign:reviewgrades so I have allowed this but my real-only user can't review the uploaded activities sent by the students. The only way to show the activities I have found is to allow the "mod/assign:grade" but in this case they can modify grades and I don't want to allow this.

Some way to setup a read-only non-editing teacher in moodle 2.6?

Thanks.

Sorry - the mod/assign:viewgrades came out in 2.7. If you look at the Grade viewer article you can see a dropdown of Moodle versions above and if you select 2.6, you will see the role is not present there, because the capability is not available. Also if you look at the docs page for the capability Capabilities/mod/assign:viewgrades you will see that the page does not exist for 2.6
