  9. Ares web pages may display duplicate instructor course menus

    If a user is both an instructor and a full proxy of another instructor for the same course, the Ares LMS web pages will display duplicate instructor menus on the web interface.

    Note: The Ares default web pages will hide the duplicate menu behind the original so there isn't a visible issue. However, the default pages may also display both menus depending on site-specific CSS customizations.
