Create content guide

When you add new content to a section it defaults to the bottom of the section. You can move it to a new location within the section it was created in or move it to a new section.

1. Turn Edit mode on.
2. Open the section where the content is located.
3. Open the section to where you want to move the content. 
4. Ensure all other sections of the module are closed.
5. Using the left button on your mouse, click and hold the white space surrounding the file name. The cursor will change into a four-arrowed shape and the white space will be highlighted pink.
6. Drag and drop the file into its new position.
7. Drag your file to the section you want it to display, then release the mouse button.
   • If you are working on a long module, keep the left mouse button pressed and select the up or down arrow on your keyboard to navigate to the new location for the content. Release the mouse button when the content has reached the correct location.

You can also move content using module index.

1. Turn Edit mode on.
2. Open module index on the left of the screen.
3. Using the left button on your mouse, click and hold the content on module index, then drag and release it to the section you wish to move it to.

In Moodle 3.9, Module index is not available. You will need to click, hold and drag the grey four-arrowed shape above the content name in the main body of the module to move it to a different location.

1. Turn Edit mode on. 
2. Open the section where the content is located.
3. Open the three dots menu alongside the content.

2. Open the section where the content is located.
3. Select the quick edit icon alongside the content.

4. Repeat steps 1-3 for any other files for which you want to disable alternative formats.

When students select the alternative format icon to download the content in a different format they will receive a message that The alternative formats for this file have been disabled.

You can re-enable alternative formats if required.
