This may have been touched on before, but I have just removed the Topic Number that appears in Topic View (e.g. 1,2,3)
If you have found that you would rather just use topic headings, without the use of numbers, then this can easily be amended:
located the topics.php file in your moodle directory (see below)
Either
moodle/course/topics.php
or
moodle/course/formats/topics.php
Open this file for editing, and scroll down to the middle of the document. Look for the entry below for guidance.
/// Now all the normal modules by topic
/// Everything below uses "section" terminology - each "section" is a topic.
Move down the code, until you get to the following block:
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td nowrap $colorsides valign=top width=20>";
echo "<p align=center><font size=3><b>$section</b></font></p>";
echo "</td>";
All we need to do is "comment-out" one line, so that the block now looks like this:
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td nowrap $colorsides valign=top width=20>";
// echo "<p align=center><font size=3><b>$section</b></font></p>";
echo "</td>";
Save the file, and hey presto - your Topics no longer have numbers!
To reverse the effect, just uncomment the one line.
Note - if you upgrade Moodle to a new version, or use the CVS code, then you will have to manually change this file again - or maybe this could be implemented into a future version of Moodle?
