Feature: Course Header

[stefanscholz]

The new design in Moodle 4.0 in general, but also specifically in courses makes it much easier to create easy-to-use courses, but without additional plugins and skill, courses are hard to make visually appealing.

This feature aims to make all courses look a lot more professional and visually appealing, and, at the same time, better to use via a dynamic course header.

User stories

As an administrator, I can

• enable course header images
• set a default course header image per category
• set a default course header image per course type (custom field)
• choose if the course header image should be taken from the course summary files
• choose the layout/appearance of course header (e.g. gradient, location, height; responsive logic)
• allow the course header image to reflect the completion status
• allow the course header image to reflect the course status (past/current/future)
• define which users with specific roles should be displayed in the header
• set if the completion progress is added to the course header
• define if the course summary is added to the course header inline or as icon (with modal)
• define which course custom fields are added to the course header inline or as icon+label
• pick a ready-made preset as default
• manage presets for course headers, which can be applied per course by the teachers

As a teacher, I can

• pick a course header image (or potentially more, if more statuses are possible)
• pick a preset
• save a lot of time because relevant information is displayed automatically

As a student, I can

• see all relevant information of a course at a glance
• understand courses better because they are more consistent
