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.

Ooops - good catch Howard! I used the version number of Moodle 2.7.7 by mistake. It seems that the module partially* works in 2.7.0 too so I just released a new version v3 that has the correct version number declared.

*) While testing the module in Moodle 2.7.0 I realized I am not able to move the blocks into the mod_poster-pre region. Only the second region was available. In Moodle 2.7.7 (at least) it already works as expected.

Current version is supposed to work on 2.7 but doesn't. It requires Moodle 2014051207

Thank for the info Hamed. Glad to see you sorted it out!

Sorry,
You solved it before, and I forgot to set the blocks to be shown any where:
"6.Note that some blocks must be first added to the course main page first, configured to be displayed at any page and then configured again to be displayed at the poster main page only (this is how block positioning works in Moodle generally)."
Thanks again,
Best,
Hamed
Hi David,
Thanks for your great module, but how can I use all my blocks in poster page? It just shows some of my blocks (and I use blocks like ranking and level up and progress bar and ... that are not listed in poster's block adding tool)
Appreciated if you would help me how to add them to the list of supported blocks.
Best,
Hamed
