Tiles format

Hi a new version for 3.9 is coming soon and have updated the page header above to reflect this. Apologies I have not had much time.

Hello,
I think we need to be a bit patient for moodle 3.9. The plugin installs fine but when creating an activity with it, during my testing the activity was inserted in the wrong section. It randomly created a "Section 347" in the course... Maybe the new activity screen breaks something.
Best regards, Stephane

Hello,
I would like to know if they are going to create the tiles format for version 3.9 of Moodle and if they are going to get it by what date it would be released. It really is excellent. very professional and very instinctive for students. It is the first time that I find a format that has enchanted our students.

Hi David,
A small suggestion to allow more entries for new colors in addition to the six existing colors in the course context settings
I used new entries manually in: tiles/setting.php
$brandcolourdefaults = array(
//new colors
'#FFF738' => get_string('colouryellow', 'format_tiles'),
'#FFFFFF' => get_string('colourwhite', 'format_tiles'),
'#A7ABA9' => get_string('colourgray', 'format_tiles'),
'#DB67BC' => get_string('colourrose', 'format_tiles'),
And other new entries manually in: tiles/lang/en/format_tiles.php
//new colors
$string['colouryellow'] = 'Yellow';
$string['colourwhite'] = 'White';
$string['colourgray'] = 'Gray';
$string['colourrose'] = 'Rose';
A new option to insert new colors after the standard color pickers in: /admin/settings.php?section=formatsettingtiles it would be perfect for us!
Thanks for the great plugin!

Any update? Is David Watson ok?

I'm using Moodle 3.8.2 and was wondering if there is a way to use Font Awesome icons for the icon picker? If so, how? If not, are there any plans to implement them in the future?
Thanks,

1. I wanted to use the Bootstrap Elements Plugin. However, there appears to a conflict with Tiles Course format Plugin which I am using with the Lambda theme. I wanted it to display some text, images, etc in a popup. When I use the Tiles Course format plugin, nothing happens when I click on the bootstrap element. I think there is a script that overlaps between plugins from tiles and bootstrap.
Any help appreciated

FIrstly, thanks for the format - I love the compactness of it and the ability to keep things on "one page." An issue I just stumbled across is trying to use jQuery UI tabs (in a section or on a page in a pop-up). I'm inputting these using the Generico plug-in, but they just use the standard jQuery, I believe. If I look at a page or section on its own, or in an editor, it works as expected, it's when it is expanded, or in the pop-up window that it breaks. Any suggestions, or is this just not possible in combining the two?
Thanks,
kirk

I could enable to choose the icon also in the sub-blocks.
It would look very top.

We used the css below to change the font and color, maybe this helps?
//smaller font (sub)tiles & color
.format-tiles .course-content ul.tiles .tile.phototile .photo-tile-text h3 {font-size: 10px;}
.format-tiles li.activity.subtile a, .format-tiles #page-content li.activity.subtile a {color: #fff; font-size: 10px;}

Can you please share css for changing tile color, I am unable to do it

Version 3.7.0 "beta" working fine in moodle 3.8.3!

hi there - i have just started using this course format, I have noticed that if i add a summary to the tile title topic then i cannot access the rest of the learning materials. Is this correct or am i missing something. I liked the idea of having a brief intro about what will be studied in the tile topic
thank you muchly

Hi can anyone suggest a similar course layout plugin for Moodle 3.8

Hello, first of all, nice theme and great work, I'm in love with it.
Second of all, I have a question about one feature (Mobile responsive: adapts to different screen sizes and orientations). How can I remove it or change it? I want to display always 4 tiles per line in all screen sizes.
