In course
Select a course
Select a tool
The first icon for teacher view is "Publish"
- on first contact people get confused by the publish button as they don't realize they can add an object with this button. This feeling tends to persist for casual users.
- you can actually "Add" objects with this button
On the other hand you really publish an object when you click this button.
Possible solutions:
Change "Publish" to "Add"
Change icon to a +
Separate "Publish" from other commands

Publish is an essential concept in Chamilo2.
It's like creating a shortcut to a content object.
We have no problems with introducing the 'publish'-concept to our users.
If need be you can always adapt the translation file.
I wouldn't advice it though, it will confuse your users even more.
