The site front page is similar to the course front page. You can make changes and edit the site front page by simply clicking the Turn Editing On button located in the top-right corner.
Enables you to give the site a name to appear on every page above the navigation bar, a short name that appears in the navigation bar, a front page description that you can use for your general organization introduction or anything else relevant, and a number of other options. Leave the default settings if you aren't sure about the purposes they serve.
You can set up front page roles and overrides the exact same way you set up roles in Chapter 4. If you decide to use a front page forum, you need to assign a Student role to everyone on the site on the front page in order for them to receive e-mail copies of the forum.
Moodle enables you to back up the site front page the same way you back up courses, as discussed in Chapter 14. All the settings follow the same format.
The Front Page Questions link leads you to the question pool for all the quizzes in the site. You can make any changes to the quiz categories or create new quizzes. You can limit the questions to be used on the site, course, or within a quiz.
The Site Files link takes you to a list of all the backup files for all courses on the site. These files are similar to the site files for each course. All actions and but tons work in the same way discussed in Chapter 3. This storage area can be accessed by anyone who has access to the URL or can guess the URL. To ensure security of backup files, they should be stored in the secure backupdata folder.
