Thanks Peter to propose the tweak to make this very interresting plugin still working for later version of Adaptable. The 1.01 version works fine up to Moodle 3.9+.
From the 3.10 version you have to apply the above tweaks to make it work but there is an error, the function that replaces "course_in_list" is "core_course_list_element".
From the 3.10 version the course list block shows two block lines and a small css adaptation succeeds to hide one of them ( display:none for .courseslider-course). Some css adaptations need to be done so that everything continues to work fine. The authors should have a look at that question and update this module, that is our main argument to adopt adaptable theme.

If you want to use v1.0.1 in moodle 3.10 you need to modify two files:

1. block_course_slider.php
Remove line 32: require_once($CFG->libdir . '/coursecatlib.php');

2. renderer.php
Change line 177: Change "course_in_list" to "course_course_list_element"

Love this slider, we use it on our frontpage. Just wondering if there is any way to make the hover colour more transparent. Our branding colour make the hover a little dark. Thanks

RTL is not tested in this block. If you can do it and add the issues in the tracker then we'll try to fix the issues.

We'll think about a category

Please use our tracker to report any issues: https://bitbucket.org/covuni/moodle-block_course_slider/issues or use the moodle forum for questions. In this scenario you could try removing the plugin using the usual site administration menu. Site administration -> plugins overview -> view all plugins. Then find course_slider and select uninstall. After that remove the entire course_slider folder. If the uninstall fails with issues related to the plugin, again please use our issues tracker.

Thanks

Fernando,

I installed this plugin and added this to the block regions area on my front page. When I was adding the course ID to the settings our courses have letters and numbers. Now I am getting a database error (see below) and I can no longer get to the home page. I turned off the blocks, I deleted the course, I tried uninstalling the plugin and nothing works! I am in desperate need of help with this. How do I get this off of my front page? Do I need to remove this from the database and if I do where do I go to do this? Please anything you know would really help.

This block is part of the Adaptable UI and it is only compatible with Adaptable theme.
