Hi Jens,

the links don't have an ID or a CLASS of their own, but you can adress them using contextual selectors. to be shure to overwrite the inline styles use the property "!important". (When I am searching for the right description I'm using extreme values and I address two different properties if one of them doesn't respond in this context):

#block_calendar_month .sideblockmain .cal_controls a:link {
    font-size:3em !important;
    color:#FF00FF;
}

firefox with its "DOM Inspector" and the "WEB Developer" extension is a handy tool to get these informations. Below you see a screendump of the CLASS and ID names the "WEB Developer" extension shows.

Good luck
Urs

hi jan,

thanks for the nice words.

great idea. i tried to put the pictures into the glossary without titles - that doesn't work. the glossary title is a must. can you imagine options (perhaps checkboxes) in the prefernces for the block?

Dear Simone,

Happy new year.

The CSS of my site is work in progress. I gladly show you how to disable the gaps between the blocks independently of my work. The following four pictures show the aspects.

moodle standard:


CSS property to disable the linefeed (the <br> tag):



The linefeeds within the blocks disapear too:



A second CSS property reactivates the linefeed within the sideblocks:


With the actual moodle installation we don't have access to the left column of the course page independently with CSS. Therefore I patched the php-file by giving the three basic cells of the "layout-table" of the course page the ids "left-column", "middle-column" and "right-column". With these anchors we can specify elements within these columns by the Contextual Selectors "#left-column .sideblockmain br" which means: influence only the <br> tag within all the objects with the class-name "sideblockmain" which are within the one and only object with the id "left-column".

The CSS part looks like:

#left-column br {

    display:none;

}

#left-column .sideblockmain br {

    display:inline;

}

I hope this helps for now.

Hello all,

because it takes more and more time to reiterate the patches to the Moodle files I've made with every update I would prefer to have a list of the changed files. Then I can just copy the unchanged ones into the updated Moodle installation and have to rework the patches only for the changed ones. Does this list exist anywhere. If not how can I easily build one? This list will save me a lot of time. How do others solve this task?

Many thanks for the answers in advance
Urs

I wish a happy new year to all Moodle users and all developers.

How will things go on with reforming the CSS for moodle 1.5? I'm very interested in supporting, but I don't see how. Without any feedback from the developers it's like fishing in troubled waters.

In my opinion Moodle will become even more attractive as a learning environment with an advanced interface that is not only flexible to use but also modern and flexible concerning the design and the styling possibilities. I want and can help to reach this goal. What can be the next steps? Martin?

Best regards
Urs
