[ARCHIVED] Enabling Conference to student view

[rhonda_pellow]

I have added (enabled) conference as a feature for my class page and it is showing up in course under the home tab as a function. However when I go to student view it does not appear. Any suggestions....it has worked for one course but not another....

Hi  @rhonda_pellow ...

Your screen shot of the "Student" view doesn't show a complete picture to show (or not show) the "Conferences" button in your course navigation.  It looks like you do have it enabled correctly in your "Teacher" view, but can you double-check to make sure that, in "Student" view, it is also showing below the "Collaborations" button in your course?

Looking forward to hearing back from you soon.

Hi Chris,

             Thanks for the reply, yes that was all that was showing on the student view, the snip was to the bottom of the list. However, I sorted it out finally.... I added people...not sure if that worked but logically, if students don't have access to others in the course then they can't communicate..... But how I got it to work after so many attempts... when I created an actual test conference... it showed up then... so I've applied this to all my courses and it's finally working...

Really appreciate you getting back to me... 

I could find no instructions on this anywhere.... I'm not a rookie at this either.... but given so many courses to prepare I'm trouble shooting for staff atm...

Regards Rhonda
