[Moodle] Moodle 1.7

Wed Feb 7 12:53:08 EST 2007

To assign roles to a course category, you click on the course category
heading which will bring up a list of all the courses only in that
category. At the top right corner, under "Turn editing on" button, is
"assign roles" link, which will allow you to do it.
