Good day community,
Installed moodle today and in administration page, tabs don't activate, just link is added to url and nothing happens
Like this
/admin/search.php#linkusers
/admin/search.php#linkdevelopment

What can I do to solve this?

  • Moodle 3.6.4
  • PHP version 7.2

Found a way around the link issue, but it's not a fix

The following link will direct to the right section (/admin/category.php?category=), by adding the desired location from the links above.

Try yoursite/admin/purgecaches.php
Click button for Purge all caches

While you've shared version of Moodle and PHP version ... might help to include some other details ... just installed how?  Operating system?   Kinda curious as to why one is installing a 3.6.x which is not the highest in that series ... so was this install done via some script your provider had available to customers?

Well, you've told us it's broke and described that ... but ... did you purge caches?   And did the upgrade to 3.7.x go ok?  Any errors?

Need more info me thinks ... so turn on debugging via direct url:

yoursite/admin/settings.php?section=debugging

Set to developer.

Anything in your nginx error logs?

Come back and share what they might say!
