Message privately Use the private message feature in Moodle to communicate with other users of Recreation North's Learning Site. Option 1 - Message
- Click on the chat icon to the left of your name in the top right corner of your screen to get to your Messages. This feature is always available when you are in Moodle. (You can also click your profile name, picture or down-arrow and then choose
'Messages' from the drop-down menu.)
- A side-bar opens when you click 'Messages' at the bottom of your screen. The side-bar sorts your messages by 'starred' or 'group' (if your trainer has set up groups) or 'private.' You can click on a message to read it and/or to reply.
- To start a new message, start typing someone's name (first or last name) in the upper search bar. You will need to click the search icon for it to look up names. If you have people in your contact list, you can find them by clicking 'Contacts.'
- When the person's name shows up, click on it.
- You can 'Write a message...' in the space at the bottom of the sidebar. Click the arrow to send the message.
Option 2 - Message- When you are in a learning event, click 'Participants' in the menu towards the top of your page.
- Click on the name of the person you want to message to open their profile.
- Select the message icon to message the person. The sidebar will automatically open with the message space ready for you.
- You can also add a person to your Contacts so you can access them directly from your Message icon up by your profile picture.
Option 3 - Email- From a learning event, click 'Participants' in the menu towards the top of your page.
- Click on the name of the person to open their profile.
- Copy their email address and email directly from your own email program.
Read Messages Sent to You
- Look for a number in red at the top of your screen by the Messages icon. The number shows messages sent to you that have not been read.
- If you are not logged in when someone messages you, the message will be sent to you by email or as a notice on your mobile device.
Modify your message settings - Change your message preferences by clicking on the Messages icon and then clicking on the cogged wheel that appears at the top right.
- New options allow you more control over who can message you or how you receive and send messages.
