Bootstrap Elements gives you the ability to add modal and toggles to your courses, helping to improve the layout of courses. It is in essence an improved "label" resource type with an opton allowing you to set content to display as a:

  • Modal box (popup box)
  • Toggle (expandable / drop-down content
  • Enhanced Label (with title + icon)
  • BlockQuote (same as above, blockquote with title / icon)

Font Awesome icons are selected through a searchable UI element smile

This will help teachers add more dynamic, interactive content within courses whilst consuming less space on the page:


Please note: This plugin will only work with themes that are based on Bootstrap and have support for for the Bootstrap elements referenced by this plugin.

Themes known to work with this plugin are:

We will expand this list to include other themes as we confirm their compatibility.

Future Plans:

  • Add color options
  • Look at other elements such as callouts and possibly Tabs / Accordion

If you have any other suggestions for improvement please let us know!

    Thanks guys for sharing this plugin with the Moodle community. I've been able to successfully test the module with the Essential theme. The overall coding style looks ok. You may wish to address the style issues listed in the prechecker results above. They are mostly trivial to fix and you can achieve 100% compliance (which is something that not every plugin or even core code can be proud on).

    I agree with the description, this provides quite simple yet powerful tool for teacher to enrich the interactivity of the main course page. Well done on that. I am happy to approve the plugin now. You are cleared to land, welcome to the Plugins directory!

    I tested your plugin in Shoehorn version 2.8.0.2 in Moodle 2.8.1. Functions worked right away. Is it the intention that there is no activity or resource icon added? Just wondering. Perhaps this is only in Shoehorn. The activity icon was also missing in the regular Label resource.

    Hi Hartmut,

    Thanks very much for testing our plugin with other themes, glad it worked on Shoehorn!

    Regards your questions on icons I updated the description earlier with our "future plans" amongst which is support for icons, toggle being a particular problem at the moment.

    We really wanted to release what we have and get feedback whilst its still being worked on.

    We are not using it in production ourselves yet and probably wont until icon support is added as without icons its not clear to users that toggles are expandable.

    We will get this added as soon as we can though :D
