Hey there,
how should i write my renderer to extends this format renderer or how should i start?
Cause the normal theme_themename_format_topcoll_renderer extends format_section_renderer_base didn't work and throw a whitescreen of death.
But normal course or calendar core renderers worked fine. Any suggestions or links or ideas?
moodle version: 2.5.2+ (Build: 20130920)
format_topcoll version: 2.5.3.1
thanks
Hi Stephan,
Why do you want to do this? And please see this post https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=220810#p962848 which has a class diagram explaining the structure.

Hi Gareth,
i want to override the section_header function and use a different heading tag instead of h3. So i thought the easiest way is to override the renderer
Thanks for the class diagram.

Hi Stefan,
The 'h3' tag is there for accessibility reasons. If you want to just change the look of the tag, then it's actually styled with a very specific CSS selector which can be specified in the theme and it will override. For example, I just did the following using 'Clean's custom CSS box in M2.5:
.course-content ul.ctopics li.section .content .toggle a h3.sectionname {
color: #FF0000;
}
And thanks for the information Marina
Cheers,
Gareth
Okay but i want to use h2 instead of h3...or some of our designer want that
thank you for your response.
Pragmatically from a UX point of view should it be 'h2' and not 'h3'?
ah, here we go again. The similar discussion pops up every several months.
Extending format_section_renderer_base in the theme MAKES NO EFFECT. You must overwrite particular format's renderer, in this case format_topcoll_renderer
I need to finally remove this class. There is an issue for it: MDL-39119
THANKS for that solution
