I've contemplated doing this a number of times, but have concluded every time that such an endeavor would, in the end, just produce more trouble (for you and for me) than it's worth.

The one practical reason I can give is because such a reference would inevitably leave something out, and you would have to return to these forums, yet again, with another question.

For this reason, I have instead written a tutorial on how to find, quite painlessly, any element, ID or class all on your own using the Firefox Web Developer extension.

Try it, and if you have any questions, please let us know.

Seems like a fair request.

While I can't make the change for your professor here on moodle.org, I can help you make the change on your installation:

1.) Login to your site as an administrator.

2.) Navigate to Admin > Language > Language editing.

3.) Click the "Edit words or phrases link below the tab.

4.) Select countries.php from the dropdown menu of choices.

5.) Search for Taiwan.

6.) Edit the string.

7. Save.
Hello Jim,

Unfortunately, I'm not able to help you on your first three requests because I don't think they are possible.

1.) No group themes

2.) No upload user "theme" option

3.) No "preferred user theme" upload option that I know of.

- these are all things that you may want to recommend to the core developers - http://tracker.moodle.og

--------

I do have a solution for hiding the user theme preference, though.

Add the following to the bottom of a CSS file:

body#user-editadvanced #moodle #id_theme {
display:none !important;
}

This will hide the dropdown menu from your users' view. Not the most elegant solution, but a solution nonetheless.
