New User Menu in Moodle 2.8 Beta.

I was glad when I heard them say they were planning to add a user menu in 2.8. Now that I have seen it I am a little disappointed in the way it displays, but pleased to hear that it has a renderer so that we can customise it in themes.

That said however, the renderer is proving difficult to master, as there are sections in it that use images that cannot be overridden. And what is even more disappointing the css selectors don't match Bootstrap ones, as they are all 'home-grown' Moodle ones, like 'iconsmall' and 'filler'  instead of 'icon' and 'divider' , not to mention 'menubar' where 'dropdown' would have saved us even more CSS.

My point is, why bother making a user menu if it is just a standard theme fix and not primarily for Bootstrap which, at the end of the day, is the 'default' theme style in Moodle?

Cheers

Mary

I assume MDL-45893?  I've not looked at the code yet.  Perhaps this is heading towards a framework-less solution where other frameworks can be added in future (such as YUI Pure) with less changes.

If you don't like it then for:

And adapt as required.

I've already done all that in the my Tiny theme ages ago, however the new User Menu has role features too and somewhat more complex than the user menus in Aardvark, Rocket, Elegance and Essential.
