'File' activity settings for users in Snap theme

'File' activity settings for users in Snap theme

Hello,

Since upgrading our Moodle site to 3.5.3 (Build: 20181112), we began using the Snap theme (ver. 3.5.2).  Since this, users have lost the ability to change the appearance settings on the 'File' resource activity. These settings are still available on an administrator level, but I cannot find a way to activate these settings for users 

This is what settings used to appear: 

Appearance settings

But now, in the Snap theme, these do now show.


Any ideas on how I can enable these settings for users?


Kind regards,

Sam

Does the issue happen if you switch to another theme like Boost?  Easiest way is to use the 'theme change on url' core setting and then have the 'theme=boost' parameter in the URL.

So if not then it is an issue with the Snap theme.

If so then it is an issue with your roles and capabilities and not a theme issue.

Using what you suggested I changed the theme to Boost, and lo and behold, the file appearance settings are there. So it must be the Snap theme that's hiding these settings

Hi Sam

I have this exact same problem. I want to embed a storyline within a page, but can't do this without the file having appearance settings. If anyone has experience with Snap, please let me know.

Thanks
Brett
