Not sure which of our courses are the most active, or your keen to track the user traffic on a specific course?
Here’s everything you need to know as an administrator to view course traffic, views and posts in Moodle and Totara Learn.
What are course traffic reports?
Course traffic reports are a quick and easy way to view user activity within your courses, over a chosen time period.
The two types of user activity tracked in these reports are views and posts:
- Views: Instances of a user accessing an activity or resource, whether reading or downloading it.
- Posts: Active responses by a user, such as submitting an assignment or responding to a forum discussion post.
This data is generated within the platform’s automatically and displayed in a visual graph for easy analysis.

Or depending on what you or your team members prefer, the data can also be viewed in a table format.
