    Hello!
    I'm having what appears to be an old problem - the user drop-down menu on the top right corner doesn't open on clicking, only if we click on it and then press the "arrow down" key. I've seen somewhere in this forum that the most recent version of the theme had fixed this, but that's the one we've downloaded, and it doesn't work. Are we doing something wrong? How could I tinker with the javascript to try to fix it by myself? Thank you very much!

    This page indicates that one of the features of the Elegance theme is Google Web Fonts. it seems like that means that it uses the Google font Roboto, but it does not seem to mean that it includes a way to use other Google fonts with the theme.

    So, how do I add Google fonts to Moodle theme Elegance? I'm using Moodle 3.0.x and Elegance 3.0 (2015111500).

    David Dummond, i guess you first need to download any Google Fonts you might want and upload them to the /fonts folder of your theme. Then, you'll need to update the less files (or probably use the custom css, I suppose both would work). Anyway, probably Bas will have a better advice. Have fun!

    Thanks for the reply, Brandon. Since I posted my previous comment about adding Google Fonts to the Elegance theme, I have dug deeper into the css and less files, and think I can probably hack my way to a solution with @font-face. But if Bas (or anyone else) has any suggestions that would point me more directly to a solution, it would be appreciated.

    Hi David,

    Newer versions of elegance use the less/elements/fonts.less file to add fonts to the CSS. Look a that file for customising your fonts. Hope that works for you. If not please use the Moodle Theme Forums to ask for help.

    That actually helps nudge me in the right direction, Bas. Thanks for responding.

    First, I just one to say this is one of the best Moodle theme I have seen.

    I am having a few issues that I don’t seem to be able to resolve:

    1-when using IE, the login screen does not display background images – It works fine when using Chrome or Firefox.

    2-The marketing spots and quick links will not show before login when selecting : “Always Show” or “ show before login only”.

    3-When using the collapsed topic I can only display one column, I understand some work has already been done on it ( https://github.com/bmbrands/theme_bootstrap/pull/423) but not sure how to use the github. Where can I download the latest version of the theme?

    Merci

    Annick

    Thanks for a really good theme. Most of my clients have an Elegance theme with a few small tweaks.

    Hello,
    Thanks for this great theme!
    I have a small issue! I set the Max page width to 1400 px (I need this size). I inserted a slide image with the dimensions of 1400x400px
    But the image doesn't fit well, it cuts the bottom, you can see in this screenshot: http://prnt.sc/bw3ezj
    Is there a fix for this issue?
    Thank you

    I love this theme but would love to upgrade to 3.1. Can anyyone tell me when/if this will be available for 3.1 or if I can use the 3.0 version? My developer suggested I wait.
