Time for action – enabling conditional activities


Before we begin to create the quiz, we need to enable conditional activities at the site level. Conditional activities are a new feature in Moodle 2.0 and not everyone will want to use them right away. So the developers created a switch to allow Moodle admins to turn the feature on when their users were ready.

  1. Login to Moodle as a Moodle administrator.

  2. In the Site administration menu, select Advanced features.

  3. Toward the bottom of the Advanced features settings page, check the box for Enable conditional access.

  4. Click on Save changes at the bottom of the page.

What just happened?

We have just enabled conditional activities which will enable course developers to restrict access and visibility based on participant scores, dates, or other parameters.
