Our popularMoodle theme Maker is based on the Moodle Boost theme and you can use lots of great Bootstrap 4 UI components to enhance the design of your Moodle courses. You can easily utilise the components to present your course content in a professional and attractive way.
In this tutorial we will show you how to add the components to your course. Some basic HTML/CSS knowledge is required as you need to know how to edit the code for your own content. You can find a live demo here.
How to add the components in a Moodle course
There are two ways to add the components. You can either add the components code to a course Section Summary or to a Label (Moodle resource). Below are some steps you need to take to add the code.
1. Add code to a Section Summary
1) Log into your course as a teacher and turn editing on.
2) Go to the section settings page
3) Enter the code into the Summary input field. You need to activate the HTML code editor before entering the code.
4) Save changes.
2. Add code to a Label
1) Log into your course as a teacher and turn editing on.
2) Add a Label to the course.
3) Enter the code into the Label text input field. You need to activate the HTML code editor before entering the code.
4) Save changes.
Components code
Below are all of the components we used in the live demo. You can simply take the code snippets and start building your course.

Slideshow
Tip: It’s best to give the carousel a max width in the code (eg. style="max-width: 760px"). The value should be equal or lower than the width of your image.
<div id="carousel-1" class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">
<ol class="carousel-indicators">
<li data-target="#carousel-1" data-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
<li data-target="#carousel-1" data-slide-to="1"></li>
<li data-target="#carousel-1" data-slide-to="2"></li>
</ol>
<div class="carousel-inner" role="listbox">
<div class="carousel-item active">
<img class="d-block img-fluid" src="https://3rdwavemedia.com/demo-images/slides/maker-slide-1.jpg" alt="" />
