Moodle Forms Theme

Posted by Robin on 25 October 2011

I've got a few different blog posts coming up in the near future. Normally, I try to avoid blogging about technical topics.

When I started working with Moodle, I found that I kept losing where the "save" or "delete" buttons were on the screen. What I’ve done is developed a simple Moodle theme that is designed to be used with other themes. It makes buttons like "save" bright green and buttons like "delete" bright red. It’s simple, but for me it has made Moodle a lot more usable.

You can download the latest version from https://github.com/sproutlabs/Moodle-form-design

To install:

Open the config.php file of your theme.

Add 'sl-forms' to the $THEME->parents

eg

$THEME->parents = array( 'canvas', 'base', 'sl-forms' );
