This option allows you to "hide" your course completely. It will not appear on any course listings, except for managers, course creators, teachers and any other users with the view hidden courses capability. Even if students try to access the course URL directly, they will not be allowed to enter.
If you force a language in a course, the interface of Moodle in this course will be in this particular language, even if a student has selected a different preferred language in his/her personal profile.
Student progress must be enabled for Activity completion. Course completion criteria may also be based upon Activity completion values found in the activity's settings.

Since versions 1.9.8.1, 2.0.5.1, 2.1.5.1, 2.2.3.1 and 2.3.3.1 for Moodle 1.9.14+, 2.0.5+, 2.1.2+, 2.2+ and 2.3+ respectively, which were released on the 5th March 2012 the format now incorporates a means of customising the 'elements' and 'structure' of the course within Moodle on a course by course basis.
Most of the formatting is contained within the file 'styles.css' which is fully commented to facilitate easy manipulation of specific elements. For example, if you found that in your particular web browser the 'Topic x ' text was too big...
Collapsed Topics has been developed by and is maintained by Gareth Barnard with invaluable input from:
Collapsed Topics is the Modules and plugins database page for downloads and more information on this module. There are versions for Moodle 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 , 2.4 and 2.5. The Moodle 1.8 version for reference and legacy use is available from GitHub and in the downloads.
The course is organized week by week, with a clear start date and a finish date. Moodle will create a section for each week of your course. You can add content, forums, quizzes, and so on in the section for each week.
The course is organised into topic sections that a teacher can give titles to. Each topic section consists of activities, resources and labels. In new installations of Moodle, this is the default format.
This format is oriented around one main forum ,the social forum, which appears listed on the main page. It is useful for situations that are more free form. They may not even be courses. The Moodle Lounge is an example of a social format course.
The single activity format only has 1 section, and allows the teacher to add one activity only to the course. When the single activity format is selected, a drop down menu appears for the teacher to choose the activity they wish to use. See the "See also" section below for a screencast and working example of the single activity course format.
The Buttons course format creates a menu with buttons in JavaScript to access the sections, one by one. It has features to create group of sections (example: modules, period) and change the button colors. For more information, please visit Buttons course format .
This is a format that is essentially the same as the standard Topic and Weekly formats but with a 'toggle' for each section except '0'. The toggles' purpose is to reduce the amount of initial information presented to the user thus reducing the 'scroll of death' that can plague courses with a lot of content.
The daily format is a modification of the weekly format that shows sections by day rather than by week.
During my tests, I have no more the number of sections course setting.
I second your thought, Jasmin.#N#+1 from me to re-introduce the section number field.#N#Does anyone want me to open an Issue in Tracker? I'd gladly create it.
PS Brian, I just came across MDL-62985 which helped me understand how your courses could end up with 1000 sections. If applicable, please comment on the issue or vote for it to be fixed.
Totally agree Luiggi, it's too complicated to administer. Always appear teachers who trying to experiment and the result is 33185 topics in a course!!!.
This thread is getting long, and the topic changed some since it started. I created a new thread in the "usability" section, just about the remove section issue. Please respond there: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=367262
