[LON-CAPA-admin] Unable to view resources for some students!

[Stuart Raeburn]

Hon-Kie,

When you display the table of parameters for one of the resources in  
the particular folder for one of the affected students what do you see  
for the parameter: hiddenresource

You could try setting "hiddenresource" explicitly to "No" for the  
specific folder for the particular student. In LON-CAPA's cascading  
parameter scheme, a specific setting overrides a more general one.
