 Messaging improvements in Moodle 3.6 Moodle 3.6 brings better control of who can message you, along with a new messaging interface allowing for group messaging, starring and better contact management. A new setting in advanced features can be enabled by the administrator to give users access to everyone on the site when messaging. By default the setting is disabled and users can only view users in their courses. When a teacher creates a group in a course, they can now choose to allow group messaging by checking a box. This comes with a new capability. Here our teacher is accessing the messaging drawer to send a message to all members of the group. He can also add stars for quick access as with student marks messages. Contacts and contact requests are easily accessible and from the cog it's now possible to choose to accept messages from only your contacts, from contacts and anyone in your courses and, if allowed by the admin, anyone on the site. Note also the option to use Enter to send messages. To summarise, messaging improvements bring better control and management of messaging, along with a new group messaging feature.
