  Have just issued a pull request.
  This fixes some issues in Grid course format:
  
  - Fix upgrade code failing on DB upgrade
  - Add section release criteria compatibility
  - Fix section images getting overcompressed in grid format

  Hi I just wanted to report a small bug with the system. It installed fine but I got a syntax error when I added it as a course. There was no specific error message and the grid worked fine! I just wanted to report it.
  
  Thanks.

  Dear Nick,
  
  Even though there was no specific error message, what was the syntax error that you got please? As I have not encountered before and cannot solve the problem without more information.
  
  Kind regards,

  Hello Gareth,
  
  Thanks for this awesome plugin! I have moodle 2.0 and it1s working perfect.
  But I have a doubt: do you have a similar plugin to put on the homepage of moodle, instead the list of courses? Becouse I'd like to show the name of courses in the grid format. Thanks!!

  Dear Murilo,
  
  Not for the 'front page' as I believe that this currently cannot be customised in the way you mention. Even though the front page is in fact a course, it has the special format of 'site' in the database - and changing this to 'grid' appears to make no difference. For more information on the 'Front page', please see http://docs.moodle.org/23/en/Front_page. Perhaps their could be or should be a tracker enhancement for this - might be worth asking on the 'Developers' forum.
  
  Cheers,
  
  Gareth

  Hi, I have recently upgraded to Moodle 2.3.2+. I have been using this course format for a few weeks and have found it to be brilliant. Since I upgraded it seems that the course format is not compatible. The boxes have moved around and now when I load up a specific module within a course there is no background to it it seems to merge into the main course. (I can provide screenshots if needed.) Is there any chance of an update soon?

  Dear Nick,
  
  Please can you initially try the latest version from:
  
  https://github.com/PukunuiAustralia/moodle-courseformat_grid/zipball/MOODLE_23_STABLE
  
  There is no need to follow the 'reinstall' instructions, just backup the existing files, delete the folder contents and replace. If there is still an issue, please kindly post screen shots on the course format's forum: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=47
  
  I'll be in contact with Julian regarding an update.
  
  Cheers,
  
  Gareth

  On the iPad 2, if the topic image is off screen or you have to scroll the page before you click the topic, the overlay box is offset from the top/left by the scroll amount. It fixes itself after you touch-scroll, but who would think to do that? You have to sniff ipad (javascript or use a css3 media query in css) and set the overlay position type to absolute, rather than fixed, for a tablet device. I've got the working code, what's the best way to submit it?

  Dear Tim,
  
  Thank you . The best way to submit it is actually to have a fork of the code on GitHub (from https://github.com/PukunuiAustralia/moodle-courseformat_grid). Then with the MOODLE_23_STABLE branch make your changes, commit and push to your GitHub fork, then in GitHub do a pull request on the main repository. That way the changes can be traced.
  
  Failing that, let me know if the above is not possible and I'll PM you an email to send me the changed code and I'll do the same in my fork.
  
  Cheers,
  
  Gareth

  Hi Tim,
  
  As Gareth has suggested please push the code to GitHub. Wost case scenario, email it to me at julian [at] moodle [dot] com [dot] au and I will patch it in. Please try and send me a patch file if you can. If your not sure how, at least try and identify the changes you have made so I can merge them in.

  Hi Gareth/Julian,
  Are there any plans to upgrade this course format for 2.4? We have quite a large number of modules using this format currently and don't want to lose it in any upgrade - in fact at the moment we would not upgrade without Grid format.
  More than happy to help in some way, but would need a pointer in the right direction as I haven't looked at the course formats before.
