Challenges - UI

Challenges - functionality

Further exploration

we are using the two column theme , so blocks can be either left or right but not on both side - https://karnatakaeducation.org.in/lms/admin/settings.php?section=theme_adaptable_layout but there are several other cutomization this theme allows like adding slideshow to front page and provides adding many blocks in grids as show in these screenshots of theme page - https://docs.moodle.org/31/en/Adaptable_theme#Screenshots

Usual keyboard short cuts work - listed here - https://docs.moodle.org/31/e/Text_editor_FAQ#Are_there_any_keyboard_shortcuts.3F

Reply to moodle post email will post on forum

right now this is not the case as you will get "reply-to" header with a unique address to reply to forum posts via email

first this needs to be enabled here - https://karnatakaeducation.org.in/lms/admin/tool/messageinbound/index.php and configured with correct mail server values to handle incoming mails with mailbox in moodle at this place - https://karnatakaeducation.org.in/lms/admin/settings.php?section=messageinbound_mailsettings

then moodle will send email from the no-reply address but not the email of the forum poster and each user will be provided with reply-to address when they click to reply to a forum post via email for which some default expiry period can be set there are lot of variables here and needs some testing before I can enable this feature considering it will use the same server resources which are used by regular itfc mail server..
