Collapsed topics - Show section summary collapsed

Hi all,

Just wondering if there might be a way to actually show the summary field for collapsed topics while it is collapsed? I know that's a bit of a contradiction in terms of functionality, but I like the idea of having just a very brief sentence present highlighting what is in that section, without the student having to reveal the section to find out.

So this...

Collapsed


Would then reveal this...

Revealed

Suggestions?

Possible with a code change but needs work.  Here I've just moved the html in the browser....

Thanks. Maybe something to consider as a possible feature? A "Show section summary" option?

Hi Philip,

I am using Moodle 2.7 with the theme Shoehorn, which allows me to use accordion style wherever I want it. In the example below, topic 1 is visible, but access and visibility is restricted (available November 27). A user with student capability will see this today.

Summary collapsed







When the user hovers over the description, the entire summary will be visible.

Summary expanded











In the attached PDF you will find the CSS that I added in Custom CSS and the HTML code for the accordion style that I added in the topic #1 summary. 

With kind regards,

Hartmut

Thanks, I appreciate the posting, but I wasn't really wanting to resolve this through CSS hiding...but thanks.
