Comment 4 for bug 1732381

Hi Urpo,

Mahara does not have a separate "Site home" like Moodle does, but has the dashboard page.

As site admin, you can already define the default dashboard elements that are displayed to new users. After that, like anything else in a user's portfolio, they can change those elements.

Mahara serves a different purpose than Moodle and learners should have full control over their space. However, Mahara is used increasingly in institutional assessment contexts where institutions may want to have more control over the portfolio. In order to still allow for the flexibility, any locking would need to be optional not just on the site but also institution level (in the end) as Mahara is multitenanted and one institution may not be as prescriptive than another.

Do you want to give this change a go and submit a feature for Mahara that we can look into?
