How-To: Disable automatic links between Moodle 4 resources within a course - Faculty

By default, Moodle will automatically create links to named resources within a course. In other words, if you create a resource and then use that resource's name elsewhere in the course, Moodle will automatically create a link between the name text and the resource. This is called "Resource name auto-linking."

Follow these steps to disable this default setting.

1. Launch Moodle (https://moodle.davidson.edu) and open your course.
2. On the course menu bar, select the More.. menu, then Filters.
   
   
3. From the Activity names auto-linking drop-down list, select Off.
   
   
   
   
4. Click on the Save changes button. The "auto links" will now be disabled in the current course.
