Moodle: Course Tools: HTML Block

The HTML block allows the user to create any kind of HTML content on the Course Tools page. From there, a title and content for the block may be supplied.

Note: This block may be used multiple times, to display multiple blocks of content with different titles.

To Configure the HTML Block:

1. Click  Edit blocks on the Course Tools page, and find the "HTML block".  If an unused HTML block exists, skip on to step 2.  Otherwise, select  HTML  in the Add a Block drop-down box (see Moodle: Adding a Block to Course Tools for more details on adding a block).
   
   
   The page will refresh, and the block should appear.
   
    

2. Click the gear icon (Actions menu) and select  Configure (new HTML block) block  from the drop down menu.
   
    
3. Enter the extra information for this block:

• Block Settings. You can choose the title desired for the HTML block, and the content for the block. No knowledge of HTML is actually necessary -- the Atto Editor allows images, links, media, and other types of content to be added to the block, in addition to formatted text. Full HTML content capabilities are provided by using the </> button in the Atto Editor.  For more details on the Atto Editor, see MoodleDocs: Text Editor.
• This block also uses the basic configuration options. See Moodle: Course Tools: Adding a Block for more details on the "Where this block appears" and "On this page" sections.
   

4. When finished customizing the settings, click Save changes at the bottom.
   
    
5. You must click on Stop Editing at the top of the Course Tools blocks section before attempting to return to your main course page.
