I have now been asked if I can prevent certain users site-wide from being able to access any course unless they are enrolled in it, but I cant for the life of me figure out how to do this.
I've attempted to prevent "view courses without participation" and apply this as a system role to those users but it seems to make no difference, they are still able to access courses which allow guest access.
Hoping someone might have an idea?
Many thanks
Why not remove guest access from the courses and then give everyone the capability 'view courses without participation' EXCEPT those you don't want to see courses?
I think the problem there would be that we also need the option to hide certain courses from users unless they are actually enrolled in them. Is there a way to do this is everyone has "view courses without participation"?
Ideally we need a method which will achieve the following...
Thanks again
I've got a nearly identical setup requirement. We have guest access open on most courses because we want most users to be able to view content in nearly all courses. We have a small subset of users that aren't supposed to be able to view courses in a particular category. I put in an override permission for the role that is supposed to be blocked, within the category in question. The override is: moodle/course:view PROHIBIT. I am sure I had this working before I upgraded the site from 2.6 to 3.0, but now it looks like this override is not having the desired effect. Users with the role are still able to view courses within the category in question.
I wonder if something changed.
