Hi Grant,

This is straightforward enough, just edit the links and put in whatever you want. Its not a user generated block as far as a learner is concerned.

cheers,

George.

Hi Grant,

Ciaran's put me right on that one, the properties of the block are very much dependent on its context!

Hey Grant,

I think the Quick Links block behaviour is very dependent on page context. If you add the block to the Home page for example the block will be working at a site context level so you can add links to courses, external sites etc and everyone will see them. However on user-specific pages like My Learning or View Profile the block will be working at a user's context level so each user will see their own individual custom QuickLinks block with their own set of links.

Adding the block to the Home page seems to work OK so maybe that would be the best place for what you want to achieve.
