Editing the in the courses list on My Moodle page

Editing the in the courses list on My Moodle page

Hi,

I really need to tweak the display of the course link on the My Moodle page.  It's being displayed via an <h2> but I can't find where that html is generated.  I need to restyle that one <h2> differently from the rest of the h2's.  As far as I can tell, the DOM aspect of that particular h2 is not distinctive enough to use a stylesheet CSS declaration rather than hard-coding it.  If I'm wrong on that, please correct me!

In any case, does anyone know which file I need to look at?  It's not in my/index.php or course/lib.php.

Thanks,
Glenn

Glenn,

It all depends on which version of Moodle you are using. CSS FAQ is a good staring point to learn more about CSS in Moodle. Using FireBug add-on in FireFox is also very useful in identifying elements you want to style.

Whichever Moodle version you use you need to make changes to the CSS files for the theme you are presently using as your default theme.

Hope this helps?

With 1.9 or 2 you can just get the my moodle page's body ID and use that to single out the h2. In the case of 1.9x, you could do:

#my-index h2.main a {

some stuff here

}

Thanks Mary.  The advanced selectors idea mentioned in that other thread would have been useful to pursue as well.
