Re: Allowing teachers to edit student profiles

by Ron Ellis -
I, too, wanted to do the same thing but have been unsuccessful so far. So many of our new students have given email addresses to our admissions counselors before coming here and those addresses are now obsolete and need to be changed. It would be nice to be able to give the students, or at the very least, the teachers, the ability to change the email addresses to current ones.
I made the changes to Allow to update user profile also and nothing seemed to change for me either. Does anyone have an answer?

I have thought about this, but have not tried it (yet)

Site Administration > Users > Permissions > Define roles

and set


Edit user profile
moodle/user:edit


to allow.

Should work?!

Hi,

Please see the discussion Update User Profiles for details of how to enable teachers to edit student profiles, and a reason why it may not be a good idea to do so.
