MoodleDocs:Styling
Template:MoodleDocs development
Note: This article is a work in progress. Please use the page comments for any recommendations/suggestions for improvement.
Thanks to Moodle Themes Manager, Urs Hunkler, for styling Moodle Docs. Effective styling may contribute significantly to a good user experience.
Skins
- Moodle Docs has a default MoodleDocs skin so it integrates visually with moodle.org.
- Moodle Docs should have alternative skins, which may be preferable for particular users for reasons of accessibility. These skins may be previewed and chosen on the preferences page.
Key pages
The following key pages should be styled to encourage users to explore further:
Templates
- All template pages should be styled.
- An explanation of how to use templates should be included in the Moodle Docs style guide.
Area styling
- The four main areas - About Moodle, Teacher documentation, Administrator documentation and Developer documentation - should be styled so that if a particular page is accessed via a search, then it is clear which area it belongs to.
Signals
Please note: (2006-02-19) Please change the date and the colour when you change a note on a page.
"Notes" are used for user information and they are basically yellow. When a note is present for a longer time on a page we start to ignore it. We risk to ignore new information. To get around this fact please add the date of writing to the note. Additional please change the colour: class="note green" or class="note orange".
