Hi, I'm very new to Moodle so apologies upfront. I've just started setting up Moodle and I'm using test data/ test users/ etc.
I want to make my student's Moodle experience as simple as possible, we're taking baby steps in our Moodle journey, there's no compelling reason I can see that the Student would need "Edit Mode" ON and it's enabled by default on their "Dashboard" page ("Dashboard" is their landing page as far as I can tell and I can confirm Edit Mode is not visible on Student "Home" or "My Courses" tab).
I'd like to introduce my students to Moodle in the first instance in a moreover locked down state and grow it out from there. . So in the first instance I'd like to turn "Edit Mode" off for the Student role everywhere.
I have set the vast majority of all Student role attributes to "Prohibit" (that took a long time). All my test students are NOT admins, they only have the Student role.
Yet the top right Edit Mode button still appears (and is enabled) for them. It must be me missing/ misinterpreting something but I would appreciate any pointers to turn Edit Mode OFF for the Student role.
I've read the "read me first" post and, sadly, I have used Softaculous as an installer. From my layman's viewpoint I think that's not the problem (and I would struggle to install without something like Softaculous) but happy to learn.
Thanks for helping me to get rid of this for the Student role..."
