Hi Andra,
I haven't received any other feedback on this yet, so thanks for this. I will try it but am worried by the warning given. What we are doing is building a "master" XS to be cloned for up to 20 other servers. So rather than have that risk multiplied by 20 it may be best to rebuild it completely to get back the "turn editing on" facility that we have lost, unless Martin or others can advise. To restate, we had made a couple of changes to the System Roles to reassign the main admin XO. That was fine, but in the process we now find that "turn editing on" does not appear on the home page of the assigned Course Creator XOs.

Using Front Page > Assign Roles to make them course creators within that context does not correct this. Any tips welcome. David, I'm not sure if you got an answer or not. I am new to this, and I'm not sure what caused your issue, but if you log into Moodle as admin, then under Users / Permissions you will have the capability to Define roles. Under Course creator at the right side, you can edit the roles. I was not able to do this from my XO as mentioned at the bottom of the Wiki clip below. I was able to do it from a non-XO by connecting to the AP and using a browser to login to the schoolserver with the information given below. Andy Wiki excerpt Logging in with the admin account Use at your own risk! Direct access to the admin account is not recommended. It may break your Moodle-on-XS today, or it may lead to breakage on upgrades. .. Normally the account is disabled (and only enabled at upgrade time). Enable the account with sudo -u apache php /var/www/moodle/web/local/scripts/adminuser-enable.php .. After each upgrade, the account will be disabled again. .. Look at the password - it is different for every XS: cat /etc/moodle/adminpw .. Login with the username admin. .. If you are logging in from an XO which auto-logins using your registered account, you can access the login page directly by editing the URL to say <http://servername/moodle/login/> http://servername/moodle/login/. You can use this form even if you are logged in.
