Report block

From MoodleDocs
workplacelogo.png This feature is part of Moodle Workplace™, which is available through Moodle Partners only.

The "Report" block displays data represented in a selected custom report.

Once a report block has been added to the sidebar or to the main region (usually on the dashboard or inside a course), it has to be configured with the following settings:

  • Block title: Standard block heading
  • Select report: Custom report that will be embedded in the block
  • Layout: Configure how the data will be displayed
    • Adaptive: Moodle Workplace automatically switches between Cards and Table view, depending on the available space.
    • Cards: Always display data in card view regardless of the screen or block size. The layout of the card has to be configured in the Card view settings of the report.
    • Table: Always display data in table view regardless of the screen or block size.
  • Entries per page: Number of entries to be displayed
