Summary


In summary, in this second chapter, we have learned what themes are and how to find them in Moodle on-premises and in MoodleCloud. We have also learned a little about HTML code and how colors are named in this code. We also customized Moodle themes more and found out where our Moodle themes are on our computer. We have searched for, downloaded, and installed the Moodle theme Essential.

We have dealt with plenty of information relevant to Moodle themes and where to find them. In the following chapter, we will deal with logos, how to design them and add them to both MoodleCloud and Moodle on-premises. We will also learn how to download and change the Favicon to Moodle on-premises. Furthermore, we will add a header background image to Moodle on-premises. Let's keep theming!
