Boost theme: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 15:43, 9 February 2023

Boost is the default theme for recent Moodle sites.

Boost is easy to configure using industry-standard Bootstrap presets, with Bootstrap 4, built-in SASS compiler, automated RTL support, preset files, new templates which make it easier to customise Moodle components. Share your presets on MoodleNet.
Note that Boost does not support submenus in the custom menu setting.
If you see that the content area in Moodle 4.0 is 830 px wide, you can fix it:

Login as admin
Navigate to Site administration > Appearance > Themes> Boost
Click the 'Advanced settings tab'
In Field 'Raw initial SCSS' add
$course-content-maxwidth: 1200px;
$h5p-content-maxwidth: 1200px; "
See https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=436387

The Moodle plugins database has many additional plugins that try to fix Boost's shortomings.
