Hi guys
One of my classes has suddenlly become uneditable
I am an administrator, so It shouldn't be a permissions issue
Any ideas on what has happened?
Cheers
Ian
I have attached a screenshot if that helps
Hmm.. The snapshot is actually html code saved from the page...
Looking at the code, the only case where this happens is if you are not an administrator for this course. Maybe an override was added for this course?
Is there someone else who is an admin on your site and who could have a look? Otherwise, you might have to use phpMyAdmin to have a look straight in the database.

Ian,
When you say "It shouldn't be a permissions issue" it suggests that you have done something with permissions, and you're assuming that whatever you did couldn't possibly be affecting you. If so, that would be an incorrect assumption
If recently modified any permissions, what changes did you make? What is your version of Moodle?

Hi Guys
I must haver done something with the permissions, as I have reset them to the default settings, and it appears to be working fine now!
weird...
Thanks for your help!
P.S any perceived problems (from your experience) with having the permissions on default for a testing site?
Cheers
Ian
No, it's not weird. Permissions allow you to fiddle with the core functionality of Moodle. If you're an administrator, you can lock yourself out, effectively shutting down your site. Moodle does not question your judgement when you do something with permissions. It assumes you know what you're doing. Its attitude is "You asked for it, you got it."
I would leave permissions alone, even on a test site, unless the purpose of the test site was to experiment and learn about permissions. And if that's what you're doing, be sure you can access the database directly, or be prepared to reinstall Moodle, in case you make a serious mistake.
