Hi Moodlers,

I'm pleased to announce updates to Essential for M2.9 and M3.0:

M2.9: https://moodle.org/plugins/pluginversion.php?id=10428

M3.0: https://moodle.org/plugins/pluginversion.php?id=10429

With the following identical functionality:

- FIX: Issue #599: .gitattributes: missing *.gif binary line - thanks to Jordi Pujol-Ahulló.
- FIX: Issue #602: <audio> elements can overflow to the right on small, older phones.
- FIX: Issue #603: Admins should always see "additional front page middle blocks" when editing is turned on.
- FIX: Fancy breadcrumb z-index conflict with the Grid format.
- FIX: Default button colour.
- FIX: Favicon not showing.
- NEW: Add return to section button on 'incourse' pages employing a named anchor to go directly there.
- NEW: Bigger forum discussion user picture.
- NEW: Default button background colour settings.
- NEW: Bootstrap 3 list group component.

Of particular notes are the new 'Return to section X' button, default buttons can now be styled via the UI (grateful thanks to Gemma Lesterhuis for funding this enhancement) and bigger forum user picture in the discussion.

Cheers,

Gareth

Sometimes this happens!  A new version that fixes an annoying button hover.

Hi Gareth,

thanks for the 'back to section' button, I've been missing that for a long time.. is there any chance to have it display the actual name of the section in a future version (truncated to button-size-convenient length, with the full section name as a hover tooltip)? Nothing fundamental, just a nice detail.

Something else that I also noticed in earlier versions (currently using Essential 2.9.1.8 / Moodle 2.9.4+):

When my page is set to fixed width: normal and without any custom css, the text overflows region-main in the Administration/Appearance page. Other admin pages are fine.



Thx and best regards,

Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,

For the "Return to section 'name'" I've raised: https://github.com/gjb2048/moodle-theme_essential/issues/613 - would you be kind enough to fund the time please?

"Administration -> Appearance" is a folder and not a page.  Still looking.
