Displaying the XP block

When the plugin is used per course, the block must be individually added to each course. However, when the plugin is used globally, all instances of the block will use the exact same configuration.

info

By default, the permission to view the block is given to all users.

Adding the block anywhere​

  1. Go to the page where you want to add the block to.
  2. Turn editing on.
  3. Click the "Add a block" button.
  4. Choose "Level Up XP" from the list.
info

To make the block sticky so that it displays on more pages than the page where it was added, please refer to official Moodle documentation.

Adding the block to everyone's dashboard​

Follow these few steps to make the block available to all users on their dashboard.

  1. Go to the page "Site administration > Appearance > Default Dashboard page".
  2. Turn block editing on.
  3. Click the "Add a block" button.
  4. Choose "Level Up XP" from the list.
  5. Move the block to its preferred location.
  6. Click the button "Reset Dashboard for all users".
caution

A common mistake users make is to add the block to their own dashboard, and then wonder why it is not visible to other users. The dashboard is a personal page, and thus blocks must be configured via the "Default Dashboard page".
