Hello Moodlers,

Essential 2.7.8 is almost ready for release, so to help David and I in this endeavour please test 2.7.8d pre-release: https://github.com/DBezemer/moodle-theme_essential/releases/tag/2.7.8d.  As normal, please do NOT test on a production server.

I'm sure I've seen this before somewhere.

Not replicating in Chrome or FireFox or even IE11 (but did notice something else with the header sad ):

Also, could this be an M2.8 issue?  I'm sure the Moodle less files will have changed for that and therefore there will have to be a specific version of Essential as indeed there has to be for M2.6.

Not a big issue, but... form submit button background color is sometimes white and sometimes blue. ( I love the blue better ) What do you think?

I like the blue (linked to the theme colour setting) and may not have got them all!  Very granular targeted CSS.  Will rectify.

Again, might be my own server or a Moodle 2.8dev issue, but still...


EDIT: tested on a vanila stable Moodle 2.7.2+ , with same results.

Ok, settings background is fixed on Github.

The File picker issue is M2.8 and affects both LTR and RTL.  Its related to the '.file-picker .fp-repo-area' CSS.

So, please kindly test on M2.7 as M2.8 is a separate thing (and still moveable ATM) affecting LTR too.

(It's a Moodle 2.8dev issue)

One last issue before I call it a night...

Calendar page, month view, the header's elements should be mirrored in RTL mode...
