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.</div><div><br></div><div>Andy</div><div><br></div><div>Wiki excerpt</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; "><h2 style="color: black; background-image: none; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; -webkit-background-clip: initial; -webkit-background-origin: initial; background-color: initial; font-weight: normal; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.6em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0.3em; padding-bottom: 0.17em; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-color: rgb(170, 170, 170); font-size: 19px; position: static; z-index: auto; "><span class="mw-headline">Logging in with the <code style="background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); ">admin</code> account</span></h2></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; "><div style="margin-top: 0.4em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-left: 0px; line-height: 1.5em; "><b>Use at your own risk!</b> Direct access to the <code style="background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); ">admin</code> account is not recommended.
