Cohort sync and Cohort manual enrolment

Cohort sync and Cohort manual enrolment

We are currently using moodle 3.1. 

We use cohort sync to enrol our participants into our courses. This works really well. Unfortunately, one of our administrators accidentally enrolled some cohorts manually rather than via Cohort sync. If we activated cohort sync in those courses, can we delete the manual enrolments and not affect the participants activity history in these courses? This is the first week of the training session, and we were lucky to pick up the mistake quite early, so we are hoping it won't affect the participants too much.

Just answering my own query. Yes, this actually works well and does not affect cohort sync enrolments, or student activity history.

I really dislike this feature - my users have done it too despite me changing the screen to say DO NOT SELECT ANYTHING FROM THIS BOX and then the only way to quickly fix it that I can see is to delete every manual enrollment and then figure out which individual users they wanted to enrol in the first place and reenroll them.

We really should have the option to disable the cohort option in the manual enrollments.

We did it using CSS on one of our clients sites - I think this is what we used:

.uep-controls .uep-entity-selector {
display: none;
}

This might be theme specific but we ran into this issue and used

div#fitem_id_cohortlist {display: none;}
