<
div> tag as a main container and add the height to keep the same value in all the blocks.

Front page Info Box and Marketing Blocks
There are two Info blocks in the front page located above and below the Marketing Blocks. These are just for compatibility with the old BCU.

There are 8 rows where you can add up to 4 blocks in each with a total of 32 block of different size. See pix/layout.png for more information.
You can enter any HTML code to the block, include FA icons, images, videos and apply in-line styles.

Messages / Notifications
Moodle 3.2 includes a new system to display messages and notifications in the screen.
The new system displays a hard coded black icons that are difficult to see when using dark background color in the top header. In that case, you can use an alternate icons pack using white color.
Login the server by FTP or SFTP and open /theme/adaptable/pix_core/i and delete notifications.png and rename notifications-white.png to notifications.png
Then open /theme/adaptable/pix_core/t and delete message.png and rename message-white.png to message.png
From moodle 3.6 the messages and notifications has been changed to the called "Messages Drawer".
Activities icons
From version 1.4, Adaptable includes its own icons pack that replace the default moodle icons. If you don't want to use the icons just remove adaptable/pix_plugins and adaptable/pix_core/f You can enable this icons from the administration.
