Overview
Dash is a block which can be added anywhere on your moodle site to display various information, e.g. the current user’s profile information or a list of users in the current course. It is built on a powerful engine which supports various data sources and templates.
Typical use cases
- Display the participants of the current course
- Display the current user’s profile information, with support for custom profile fields
- List my classmates (everybody who is in the same group)
- List all students of a teacher (all participants of all courses where the current user has a teacher role)
- List all participants including their picture and group
Premium Addon Available
Dash Pro adds more data sources (Courses, Dashboards and Completion) and more templates (Grid, 2 Accordions, One Figure + Label, One Figure / Other Figure). Dash pro also enables you to create unlimited dashboards, which can be made available to all logged-in users, a certain cohort or even public. Dashboards are great for Landing Pages, Course overview pages, Course teasers, Trainer cockpit, Admin cockpit … and many more
Installation
Option 1: Install from Moodle.org (recommended)
- Login as an admin and go to Site administration > Plugins > Install plugins. (If you can't find this location, then plugin installation is prevented on your site.)

Option 3: Install manually on server
- Download Dash from https://moodle.org/plugins/pluginversions.php?plugin=block_dash
