Hi Guys. My name's Lucio. And I am having a kind of issue because of cohorts. My version of moodle is 4.0, but the funcionability of cohorts seems not be installed. So I tried to install as pluggin, but i didn't find the file that could help me to install that funcionability becase this should be native of moodle. So I need some help to install or import cohorts to my moodle.
Hello, Lúcio! 😊
Welcome to the forum! It's always a pleasure to help a fellow traveler on the Moodle journey! Let's solve this cohorts issue together!
You mentioned that you are using Moodle version 4.0. The good news is that cohorts have always been a native feature of Moodle, and I’ve been using them since version 2.2! That’s right, there has been documentation about this since then, which you can check here. Therefore, there’s no need to install a separate plugin to use this functionality.
To access and manage cohorts in your Moodle 4.0 installation, you should follow these simple steps:
- Log in to your Moodle as an administrator.
- Go to Site Administration > Users > Cohorts.
- Click on "Add new cohort." You will be able to set a name and a description for it.
- After creating the cohort, you can add users to it. Just click on the cohort you created and then use the "Add" option to select the users you want to include.
If, for some reason, the cohorts option is not visible in your menu, you may need to check the access permissions or settings of your installation.
I hope this helps to resolve your issue! If you need anything else or have further questions, don’t hesitate to ask. We’re here to help! 🌟
