Dears,

We are using Moodle 3.8 with a customized theme. Now we applied (Lambda) theme. 
Now when I try to add or edit a course with my manager account, I can't find the textboxes for the course short name and course ID number. I didn't change anything in the settings. it is only changing the theme. I attached the old and new course settings. Can you please help?

Old theme course

Have a look in the additional CSS and see if there is something that looks like:

#fitem_id_shortname {

display: none;

}

If yes, then that is the problem. I would guess someone had added this to hide the item somewhere else, without realising that is also hid it in the course settings page.

Dear Mr. Dave,

Thank you for your response. Unfortunately, the field is not hidden by any additional CSS code. I even deleted every code in the Additional CSS and purged the cache but still can't find the missing fields

Check the theme isn't doing anything funky - I've not used this theme so can't say.

Also, check the roles where this is happening. There are two capabilities that can control whether these fields are editable: moodle/course:changeshortname and moodle/course:changeidnumber
