# User rights

The *User rights* section ![](/files/-LH9Cy8i0r-StzgBdiCe) allows you to set particular permissions for users in this course, including the right to add events to the *Agenda,* to add *Announcements.* It also allows you to hide personal user pictures in the *Forums*, as well as decide whether users have access to the *Users* list.

(**Note**: This is independent of the visibility of the tool in the course homepage and is a real access change (the visibility of tools is only a homepage setting and does not prevent users entering the tool if they know the URL).
