By default, forum tracking is enabled. This means that new posts to the forum are highlighted.

Moodle provides you with a personal profile that applies to all the Moodle units you are enrolled in. Other Moodle users are able to view your profile. This information can be edited at any time.
You can personalise your profile to share information about yourself with your instructors or fellow students, and to control how you work in Moodle. You can choose to hide or display your email address, include a photo or an avatar that will display beside your forum posts, or add a link to your website.
1. From the User menu select Profile, then click Edit profile.
2. The Edit profile page has a number of areas which can be expanded to display editing options. They include General, User picture, Additional names, Interests, Optional and Other fields.
3. When you have finished editing the settings, click on the Update profile button at the bottom of the page to save your changes.
Note: Your profile information can be viewed by other Moodle users. Do not include inappropriate or private information.
You can upload a photo or picture by dragging and dropping a file in the New picture box, or by clicking the Add icon then Browse to locate the image and Upload this file. Your user picture will display (see example below) and can be deleted by ticking the delete box.
Tips on choosing an image:
Remember: Information you provide in your profile is visible to other Moodle users. It is generally recommended that careful thought be given to selecting the information you provide here. Do not include inappropriate or private information.
