Alternate Icon Set

Warning: This page is no longer in use. The information contained on the page should NOT be seen as relevant or reliable.

An alternate icon set may be used with any Moodle theme.

An icon set consists of a pix directory containing copies of all files from the moodle/pix directory plus a pix/mod directory containing all activity module icons.

To use the alternate icon set

1. Amend

   $THEME->custompix = false;
   

   to

   $THEME->custompix = true;
   

   in theme/yourtheme/config.php

1. Copy the pix directory to the theme folder

That is, in order to use an alternate icon set associated to a specific theme, you need to make a whole tree of icons in the pix subdirectory of the theme. Your pix folder will look like the example below, probably with some more theme-specific pictures included:

yourtheme/
-- pix/
-- -- c/
-- -- f/
-- -- g/
-- -- i/
-- -- m/
-- -- mod/
-- -- nuvolaLicense/
-- -- s/
-- -- t/
