It is possible to set the default home page for users who are logged in to myMoodle, instead of the front page in Site administration | Appearance | Navigation. We'll look into this in more detail in Chapter 8, Admin Issues when looking at admin issues. If we did that, our block would look as shown in the following screenshot:

If I click on My profile to view my details, you can see how the navigation bar works. We can see the top bar when Home is our Moodle front page; and we can see the bottom bar if we're using myMoodle as our logged in home page:

What we see when we click on Site pages depends on our permissions on the site. For example; I, as the administrator with front page powers can see the view on the left as shown in the following screenshot, whereas our student Emma and her two teachers, Stuart and Andy can only see the Blogs, Tags, and Site news links on the right.

Again, note the differences between what I (as admin) see (on the left) and what regular users like our student Emma see (on the right). We'll deal with Private files and Repositories, as shown in the following screenshot, later in the book.

If we click the View profile link, our profile appears in the main screen but it also summons another block with settings for editing the profile. Emma's profile is shown in the following screenshot:

We'll shortly take a look at how moving around a course has changed. This is the link to go to the courses we teach or study in.
