Hide, archive or duplicate a module

Who can use this: Teachers and staff with access to the course.

Before you start

Decide whether you want a temporary visibility change, a retained old module or a new working copy.

Hide, archive or duplicate a module

  1. Open the module management controls and choose the available hide, archive or duplicate action.
  2. For a copy, review the new draft and its activity links before publishing it.
  3. After hiding or archiving, check the course sequence. Manage each underlying lesson or assessment separately if it should also stop being available.

What happens next

The module changes state while its underlying activities retain their own publication and access rules.

Troubleshooting

Hiding a module does not unpublish its lessons or assessments. A copied module starts as a draft. Existing completed-course records can retain historical content.
