Hey folks, as we know Rise courses look their best with no additional UI surrounding them. Is there such a possibility in the latest version of Moodle? I mean you're in Moodle and click on the link to a Rise course and it opens without any Moodle interface, yet at the same time reporting the course progress back to Moodle?
In your SCORM activity settings you can select open in a new window under Appearance - https://docs.moodle.org/33/en/SCORM_settings. In the Moodle theme you can then add CSS that change the look of the new window
Thanks Ole, so I take it with the custom CSS for the new window you can completely remove the Moodle UI. Can you please post a sample CSS code that would do that.
Hi again Arek I tested a scorm package on my test site www.studierum.dk. It seems that you should be able to get rid of everything in the popup window in the settings. Under Appearance in the SCORM settings choose to display package in New window. Click on Show more... at the bottom - see ill. 1.
For width and height I used 1080 x 700. Set width and height to 100 if you want 100%.
Set the other things and test - see ill. 2..
If it doesn't work try another theme e.g. Clean. If there is no luck there, you have to play with the custom.css in your theme. See this discussion: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=312778. I would try the last post.
Hi what I found trying it now is you don't have to do anything with a new theme or CSS.
1) Find the cog/gear icon that applies to the Rise scorm package. (Easy to mistakenly click the cog/gear icon for something else like the course itself) and select 'edit settings.'
2) scroll down and expand the 'appearance' tab. Then immediately click "show more." If you don't click 'show more', you won't see the width and height fields.
3) In Display Package, select 'New Window' and then set width and height to maybe 100%
The new window displays the Rise Course with nothing surrounding it except a URL at the top.
