The Category Banner plugin enhances Moodle pages by allowing administrators to display customized banners based on course categories.


Plugin Administration

  • Through a simple admin interface, users can create and manage multiple banner rules.
  • Rules apply to all courses within a category, with the option to include or exclude subcategories.
  • Rules can also be applied globally to all pages by selecting a "global" option, which is useful for displaying site-wide announcements.

Display

  • Banners can contain rich text.
  • If several rules apply to a specific page, the banner contents are combined.
  • Banners are displayed responsively at the top of course pages.
  • The plugin is optimized for performance through Moodle's caching system.
