Poster

Poster is a resource activity module allowing to create a web page. What makes this module unique is that the contents of the poster page is composed of Moodle blocks (such as HTML block, Calendar block, Latest news block etc.). It provides yet another place within the course where blocks can be put without polluting the course front page.

Hello Valeria. Thank you for raising this issue. May I suggest we move the discussion into the plugin's issues tracker so that we do not pollute the comments here. Thanks. p.s. I think it will be a matter of permissions - users need be given permissions to add blocks into the poster page.
I make the following query we have installed a Moodle 2.9.8+ (Build: 20160915), and in one of the courses is installed the Poster block when teachers activate the edition to incorporate a new block to the Poster shows them the following message "No there are blocks that I can add to this page. "; but it is not the same when a site administrator tries to do it.
Thank you so much.
I await your response.
Valeria
Thanks for confirmation. I am happy to announce that Poster version 5.2.0 has been now released, with privacy API finally implemented and Moodle 3.5 supported.
Have you tried if the 3.4 version works? If would be a helpful contribution.
Any update to Moodle 3.5?
Ricardo
Yes I plan to formally update it asap. Meanwhile, the current 3.4 version should just work well.
Any update to Moodle 3.5?

@William Mair - you can use the course format "Single activity format" and let the poster be displayed directly as the course main page.
How much work would be involved in displaying the poster content directly on the course page as opposed to a separate resource? I was thinking of using the OneTopic course format with your poster resource to mimic a Mahara collection.
Thanks
Poster version 5.1.0 released. In editing mode, the "Add a block" selector is now displayed in Boost based themes, too.
Poster version 5.0.0 released, offering an improved editing interface. Tested on Moodle 3.2 and 3.3 with all three major theme families (Boost, Clean, More).
Thanks Tom. If you believe it is a problem with the Poster (and not the theme, as in you see the problem on the Poster page only and nowhere else), please report the details into a new issue in the plugin's bug tracker. Please attach screenshots so to better illustrate the problem. Thanks in advance.
