Please bring back the course summary image!

Please bring back the course summary image!

Hello,

Recently I spent some time looking at the latest version of the Moodle app using the mobile emulator found at https://mobileapp.moodledemo.net/. I noticed that the most recent code has gotten rid of the course summary image in the header of the course page. I'm really sad to see this go, as it really improved the appearance of the course page and was a great compliment to our desktop theme (Fordson) which also uses the course summary file to create a banner at the top of the course page. Please consider bringing this back (or perhaps providing some CSS to allow us to do it for ourselves). 

Thank you.

Hi Elton!

Thanks for submitting your concerns! We've decided that the image will still be available but hidden using css so you can show it again with something like:

ion-app.app-root core-course-format .core-format-progress-list .core-course-thumb {

    display: block;

}

It's not integrated yet but it will be soon.

Thanks!

That is better than no recognition of the issue at all certainly.

My first thought was could it be a setting in the local_mobile plugin on the site? Anything which is a yes/no I would far rather see there so if you just want to turn some things on and off (versus completely muck about with the styling) should be as easily.

Hi!

The thing is that we cannot include new settings on mid-release, so this is far better and much simpler because it make it more dynamic to change and version agnostic.

Cheers!

Hello again Pau,

We added the CSS you suggested to our style sheet, but we are still unable to see the course summary file in the header on the course page. Have we done something wrong? For reference I've included the CSS below.

ion-app.app-root core-course-format .core-format-progress-list .core-course-thumb {

    display: block;

}

Thank you for your time.

Elton

Hi Elton!

It will also need to have Moodle 3.6 or greater in order to have all the info without requiring an additional request to the server. Which version of Moodle are you using?

Thanks,

Pau
