Git link on home page

by Pascal Richier - Monday, March 16, 2020, 5:18 PM

Hi,

Can a link pointing on source code can be added on home page ?

With covid-19 i've search an open source learning solution and it was hard because there is a lot of solutions. Giving easy and quickly access to source code is a must have to show that Noodle is the best solution and really open ! There is a lot of solutions and finding good and really open source solution is a pain.

For now to find the source on home page we have to clic on :

- Moodle.net link and git at bottom

- download and get source code that point on doc page listing sources

Thanks for all.

Pascal

Moodle.net is not Moodle.

To get the Moodle source, there is a Download link at the top of any page on moodle.org. And, the footer of the standard Moodle theme has a link to moodle.org.

Searching for "Moodle source code" in Google also takes you straight there.

That seems sufficient.

I know, it is not just a "link". But if for somebody who is completely new, just a source for Git is way not enough.

BTW, this is a question for "Installing and upgrading help" https://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=28.
