Moodle Cards format

A format which displays sections of your courses as cards with images, similar to format_grid or format_tiles.
The cards format is an extension of the default Topics format to make it easier to maintain.

Features

• Large cards with user configurable background images


• Responsive cards scale down for mobile devices


• Choose between horizontal and vertical cards, or square grids


• Cards can display a user's completion progress for each section


• Easily import images used in the grid format

Installation

The cards format only requires a version of Moodle still receiving general or security support. You can check whether
your version of Moodle is supported by looking at the release calendar https://moodledev.io/general/releases

You must still have the default topics format installed on your site. There are no special installation steps, just
install as you would any other plugin.
