View full documentation

5.0.3

Drag-and-drop question drop zones, Global Search in the top bar, assignment bulk actions, and quiz review-option columns (Build 2026100700).

  • Fixed
    • Drag and drop onto image - drop zone size - file-uploader styles no longer apply to question drop zones; the boxes keep the size the question calculates, the same as Boost
    • Drag and drop questions - dark mode - labels on drag-and-drop onto image and into text use dark text on the light group colours
    • File upload drop zone - dark mode - the uploader uses a dark surface and light text instead of a light panel with light text
    • Assignment grading - bulk actions - selecting users shows the full bulk bar; the More menu opens above the bar, with its label and icons
    • Quiz settings - review options - timing columns no longer overlap on a narrow screen; headings stay in their column and extra columns wrap
    • Global Search - local_globalsearch shows as one magnifier icon in the top bar; the field takes over the bar, and Escape, the close icon, or a click outside closes it. Requires local_globalsearch 1.0.3

5.0.2

Bootstrap JavaScript for Moodle 5.2 and 5.3, a keyboard focus colour, and profile, menu, and top-bar fixes (Build 2026091714).

  • Improved
    • Bootstrap JS - Moodle 5.2 and 5.3 - theme AMD no longer hard-wires theme_boost bootstrap submodules removed in Moodle 5.3; a bootstrap_compat loader uses the shared package on 5.3+ and falls back to the 5.2 submodules
  • New
    • Keyboard focus - colour - Focus color and Focus color (dark mode) in top bar colours; an empty field keeps the theme default
  • Fixed
    • User profile - plugin sections - sections added by other plugins, such as Learning Tool, Privacy and policies, or the mobile app, show on the profile page again
    • Menu builder - sticky actions - Add / Cancel sits above Save changes instead of covering it
    • Top bar - dropdown groups - nested items in More and the mobile menu use the same colours as the other rows
    • Top bar - mobile logo - the course index button no longer sits on top of a long wordmark
    • Dark mode logo - alternative text - the dark-mode logo uses the same alternative text as the light logo and is no longer hidden from screen readers
    • Screen reader text - accesshide - visually hidden labels stay available to screen readers and stay invisible on screen
    • Help icons - click target - each help popover link is a 40×40 px target; the question-mark icon stays 18 px
    • Mobile profile sheet - close button - on small screens the profile sheet close button closes the sheet

5.0.1

Course-index and My courses colours, a fluid secure layout, and an email-preview fix for Moodle 5.2 (Build 2026090502).

  • New
    • Course index - active row colours - Sidebar Button Background (Active) and Sidebar Button Text (Active); an empty background mixes hover text into the drawer background
    • My courses - search field colours - background, text, and border for the search field in the My courses modal
  • Improved
    • Secure layout - page width - quiz attempt, summary, and review pages use the same fluid page gutter as the in-course layout
    • Combobox search - stacking - grade, group, and generic search dropdowns share the same overflow treatment, and result lists drop below the field
  • Fixed
    • Secure layout - blocks drawer - the right-hand blocks drawer sits flush with the top of the viewport on desktop
    • Theme settings - email preview - the branding preview renders on Moodle 5.2 without the “theme has already been set up” error
