More questions

Can unread comments be flagged like in Catalyst? This makes it easy to see what has happened since my list visit.

Can blog postings be organized in other than chronological order?

I notice that Valerie has a sailboat icon by her name on some postings. How do you do that?

  1. I'm accessing the Features demo course, from the main Moodle site http://moodle.org/ running Moodle 1.9Beta

    By comments, do you mean forum posts? There is an option in the top right of Forum pages "Unread posts are (not) being tracked" - this is a toggle so if you want to change to the other state - click the link. When track is activated, any unread messages will be indicated - on the main course page, and on the Forum list. In the actual topic display, the unread posts are "different" and it depends on the theme - usually different border or something similar.

  2. Can blog postings be organized in other than chronological order?

    Yes, at the top of the Forum topic display, there is a pulldown menu with several choices that control the sequence and format of the posts - flat with newest/oldest first, threaded, or nested.

  3. a sailboat icon by her name on some postings. How do you do that?

    In your profile, about half way down the scrolling page, there is a "picture" feature. If you have a picture on your computer that you want to use, click the button, locate the picture and click ok. This will upload the picture and use it with your comments in some display formats.
