Adaptable - the most adaptable moodle theme
*******************************************************************************************************

Adaptable is a highly customisable responsive two column moodle theme based on the popular BCU theme adding:

* Customisable fonts (Google Fonts)
* Fully customisable colors
* Fully customisable block styles (including icons)
* Fully customisable buttons
* Additional header navigation
* News Ticker
* Alternative jQuery slider
* Alternative front page course styles
* Additional marketing blocks
* Additional layout settings for width, slider width, padding of various elements
* Social icons
* Mobile settings (customise how theme looks on mobile devices)
* Dismissible bootstrap alerts (can be made persistent by specifying a “key” which is stored in user preferences)
* Option to add login form in header on front page
* Favicon uploader

In addition many fields (menus, news items, alerts and help links) can be targeted using custom profile fields,
thus it is possible to present different users with different nagivation items and notices.
It is also possible for individual users to customise where they want top menu navigation to appear
(disable, home pages only, sitewide) using custom profile fields.

Adaptable has a lot of settings and may seem daunting at first, our advice is to simply install with the default
settings and play with it afterwards.

With a little time you should be able to setup an attractive Moodle site with a high degree of
individuality without without knowing any CSS.

Here you will find some code samples to help you to customize the Info Box and the Marketing Blocks.

You can insert any HTML tag to customize the frontpage blocks. Use a <div> as a main container and add the
height to keep the same value in all the blocks.

The Font Awesome icons set is available in http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/.
You can insert any of them following the examples http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/examples/


Front Page Slider Styles
------------------------

There are two possible slider styles each with different markup required:

Original BCU Slider Markup:

<div class="span9">
  <h4>Information</h4>
    Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore
    et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip
    ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.
  </div>

  <div class="span3">
  <a href="#" class="submit">2013/14 Courses <i class="fa-chevron-right fa"></i></a>
</div>


Coventry Style Slider Markup:

<div class="span6 col-sm-6">
<h3>Hand-crafted</h3> <h4>pixels and code for the Moodle community</h4>
<a href="#" class="submit">Check out our custom theme pricing!</a>
</div>


Frontpage Marketing Block HTML structure Coventry:

<div><img src="http://somewebsite.com/2.jpg" class="marketimage"></div>
<h4><a href="#">International Courses</a></h4>
<p>Some text below the link....</p>



Front page Info Box and Marketing Blocks 
----------------------------------------
There are two Info blocks in the frontpage located above and below the Marketing Blocks. These are just for compatibility with the old BCU. 

It is recommended to use the new marketing blocks builder that allows you to create your own layout and add much more blocks. 

There are 8 rows where you can add up to 4 blocks in each. See pix/layout.png for more information.

You can enter any HTML code to the block, include FA icons, images, videos and apply inline styles. 

Some samples:

 
Block with solid background, FA icon and some text: 

<div style="text-align:center; background: #e6e6e6; height: 240px; padding: 7px;">
    <i class="fa fa-paint-brush fa-5x" style="color: #009688;"></i>
    <h3>Title </h3>
    <div style="text-align:center;">Add your text here.</div>
</div>


Block with border and transparent background:

<div style="text-align:center; height: 240px; padding: 7px; border: 1px solid #009688;">
    <i class="fa fa-list fa-5x" style="color: #009688;"></i>
    <h3>Heading</h3>
    <div style="text-align:center; padding: 5px; color: #009688;">Add your text here.</div>
</div>


Block with an image:

<div style="height: 350px;"> 
    <img src="http://yoursite/yourimage.jpg" style="vertical-align:text-bottom; margin: 0 .5em;" height="auto" width="100%">
    <p style="margin-top: 5px; color: #333333; text-align: center;"><strong>Add your text here</strong></p>
</div>



Block with a video:

<div style="background: #606060; height: 315px">
    <center>
    <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wop3FMhoLGs" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" width="560"></iframe>
    </center>
</div>


Block using multi-lang filter:
<div style="width: 100%; height: 240px; background-color: #cccccc;">
<h1 style="text-align: center; line-height: 120px;">
      <span class="multilang" lang="en">text in english</span>
      <span class="multilang" lang="es">texto en español</span>
      <span class="multilang" lang="fr">texte en français</span>
      <span class="multilang" lang="ca">text en català</span>
</h1>
</div>



Footer Blocks
----------------------------

You can apply the same HTML/CSS in the footer blocks. 
Some samples:

News Ticker
-------------------------------------
To add news to the ticker you need to create an unordered list using the Atto editor.

IMPORTANT! Verify you only enter the <li> tags. For example:

<li>Configure all the theme colours</li>
<li>Use any Google Font for the content, headings and site title</li>
<li>Display a logo or a configurable title site</li>
<li>Configurable Slideshow</li>
<li>Display up to 12 marketing blocks in the front page</li>
