Customising Afterburner Theme - Moodle 2.4

Hi,

I'm having trouble with customizing the Afterburner theme from Moodle 2.2 to our recent upgrade to Moodle 2.4. As you can see in the screenshot. I want the footer to repeat. I also add some links which aren't appearing in the footer. I have tried in the CSS. I tried in custom css settings as well as the custom css settings in the footer.

I have a local moodle 2.2 tried it on our Moodle 2.4 now the background isn't appearing. I'm having a hard time in customizing the css from 1.9 to Moodle 2-4. The css has changed drastically. I'm not very good with php.

It would great if someone could help me out!

Thanks,

Courtney

Hi,

The Afterburner custom settings page allows you to ADD CSS only but does allow you to ADD some text to the footer.  So if you are trying to add CSS specific to the footer using this Footer settings text area, I can tell you know, it will not work as it is not designed to read CSS. It is a 'text editor' and nothing like the CSS setting box further up the page.

First of all to get your image to show up, you need to add your footer background image to the pix folder of your theme. Next you need to add the CSS to make that image appear and repeat along the x-axis if you add something like this in the CSS settings box in your theme's custom settings page....

#page-footer { background: white url(http://put your moodle site URL here/theme/afterburner/pix/footerbg.jpg) repeat-x }

where 'footerbg.jpg' represents the name of your footer background image.

You will need to enable Theme Designer Mode which allows you to see the changes you are making to your theme.

Hope this helps?
