Course list not displaying on front page in Adaptable theme

Hi Fernando. Thanks for Adaptable theme!

I have the same issue.

Courses tiles are not displayed at all but only for guests. Logged users, infact, can see the Course section.

But if I choose Moodle default, guests can see the Courses section...

I disabled both Ticker and Slideshow.

Console doesn't show any error at all.

Frontpage settings (for not logged users) are configured properly.


I'm using 2016121501 version of the theme.


I need to have a frontpage as in Adaptable demo for not logged user.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Just adding that I have the same issue, 3.1.4 build on a site, with the very latest Adaptable (installed yesterday in fact.)

I have the ticker turned off and have never set it, and I have Marketing blocks on which only have <h3> and <p> tags, no other tags. Sliders off.

All the courses in this site have course descriptions and summary images, but nothing is coming over in the regular Tiles or Coventry tiles.

Or if any one can help with that?

This is still broken for me. I have switched Frontpage courses to use Moodle default, which is working. Tiles, Tiles w/ overly, and Coventry all show empty boxes with nothing for the course description or summary file i mage.

Still can be replicated. We need more info.

Apart of hundred updated sites to latest version we set up and upgrade many sites and never got this issue.

Fernando,

I have isolated this to:

If the default Moodle Front page Logged in setting is set to List of courses, then the Adaptable > Frontpage Courses = Tiles, then it works fine.

If the Moodle front page is set to Combo list or List of categories, then that will interfere with the Tiles and neither the course descriptions nor course summary files will show up. 

So, in the screenshots below, all I did was change the Moodle Frontpage from List of courses to Combo list and it affects the Adaptable theme tiles (right side view). 

I would expect it would just ignore that setting altogether and the Adaptable setting for Tiles should have priority and work properly irrespective of the Moodle setting.

Adaptable is not compatible with display courses by categories. This was already commented several times.

In a future version is possible we develop this feature.

Fernando,

I suggest you add a notice or warning on the settings page for the Frontpage Course Boxes that they need to set the site Frontpage course setting to List of courses, and that it is not compatible with the categories options.

That will help prevent the confusion.


Thanks Randy

I have the same problem:

If I choose List of course at frontpage settings, OK, all courses are listed, blocks and footer too.

But if I choose "Enrolled courses" at frontpage setting, none course, blocks or footer is there...

At debugging (development mode) it shows:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function render_mycourses() in /home/essaeadn/public_html/moodle/theme/adaptable/renderers.php on line 2848


Can it be fixed?
