Add the XP block

The XP block shows learners their points and level. The XP mode controls where you can add the block:

• In per-course mode, add the block to each course where you use XP.
  • If the overall level is enabled, you can also add the block to Site home or Dashboard.
• In sitewide mode, add the block to Site home, the default Dashboard, or another page. All XP blocks show the same sitewide data.

Add the block to a course or page

1. Open the course or page where you want to add the block.
2. Turn editing on.
3. Select Add a block.
4. Select Level Up XP.

To show the block on more pages, change the settings under Where this block appears. For more information, see block settings in the Moodle documentation.

Add the block to every user's Dashboard

You must be a site administrator to add the block for all users. Use the Default Dashboard page to do this. If you add the block to your own Dashboard, only your Dashboard changes.

1. Open Site administration > Appearance > Default Dashboard page.
2. Turn block editing on.
3. Select Add a block.
4. Select Level Up XP.
5. Move the block to the required location.
6. To apply the change to existing users, select Reset Dashboard for all users.

If the block is not available

If Level Up XP is not in the Add a block list, do these checks:

• Check whether the XP block is already on the page.
• Make sure that you can add the block to the page in the selected XP mode.
• Make sure that your role has the block/xp:addinstance permission.
• Ask an administrator to check the block status and make sure that it is enabled and unlocked.

Check the block status

1. Open Site administration > Plugins > Blocks > Manage blocks.
2. Find Level Up XP in the list.
3. If the block is disabled, enable it.
4. If the block is locked, unlock it.

If Level Up XP is not in the list, make sure that XP is installed.
