Students can't see something in my module
This refers to Moodle 4.5 from August 2025 onwards
Hiding a whole section, topic or an activity or resource from students
Navigate to the relevant Moodle module.
Turn on Edit Mode.
If a section is hidden, it will say 'Hidden from students' next to the title of the section (see below.)
2. Visibility of sections can be toggled from the three vertical ellipses to the right of the section by selecting 'Hide topic' or 'Show topic' from the option list.
If an activity or resource is hidden, it will say 'Hidden from students' below the title (see below).
Visibility of activities and resources can be toggled from the three vertical ellipses to the right of the activity or resource by selecting one of the availability options, which are:
Show on course page. Available to students (subject to any access restrictions).
Hide on course page. Not available to students.
Make available but don't show on course page. Available to students if you provide a link. Activities will still appear in the gradebook and other reports. This is known in Moodle as a Stealth activity.
4. When finished, click on the 'Turn editing off' button in the top right of your Moodle page.
What about assignments?
If an assignment is hidden, then students will not see the assignment or grades.
