# User rights

The *User rights* section ![](https://2324583860-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FlDtbPjZhax0iCyOmO06r%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-3229bc9bb01b13e9f398e55d7d42025ad22ef24c%2Fgraphics325.png?alt=media) 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).
