Lost Shutdown Moodlebox button

Ian

Thanks for letting us know. I don't know enough about it but would a block work?

Ian would a block work?

Yes, and I could integrate the dev into my plugin. If you have some clue, it'll enable to go faster.

I am sorry that I can't help - I am not a programmer - just a teacher.
The buttons are present when using the mobile boost theme but not the laptop version. So for now I have instructed my managers to log in on a mobile device so they can do a safe shutdown.

Hi Ian,
what do you mean with "mobile boost theme". The MoodleBox 4.3.0 comes with the boost theme and with the classic theme. The new boost theme does not show the footer buttons, but the classic theme does. Did you install an additional theme on the MoodleBox?

Okay, I found the buttons on my Smartphone but not on my tablet. The design is Boost 4.0..

Ian

ralfkrause Sorry I should have been clearer. On the theme selector in the admin/appearance you can select different themes for default, mobile, and tablet.
The boost theme on mobile still has the buttons showing.

I switched off the option enabledevicedetection on the settings page http://moodlebox.home/admin/settings.php?section=themesettings
So you are definitely using the same theme for all devices.

You can get the buttons also on a notebook or desktop pc. Resize you browser window to the minimal with .... voila ... your will get the buttons. This could be a css setting to get the footer also on wide screens. I took this screenshot in Safari on my iMac 27" and I got the same with Firefox and Chrome.

Ian As an ugly workaround before I fix the problem: simply add the following line to box "Raw SCSS", under Aministration > Appearance > Boost > Advanced settings:

.jsenabled #page-footer .footer-content-popover { display: block; }

You'll have now the footer always displayed.

This is now fixed by v2.13.0 of MoodleBox plugin.

Enjoy, and if you wish, donate!

Great! Thank you very much!

I just updated the new plugin version 2.13.0 on my MoodleBox. I think we need to reboot the MoodleBox to activate all functions. It looks fine and it works. Perfect!

ralfkrause I think we need to reboot the MoodleBox to activate all functions.

Yes, this is mandatory when updating the plugin. Thanks for testing.
