Note:
Fordson was built to solve UX experiences more than any theme or styling issues.  We thought our solutions were clever and helped make using Moodle 3.X easier for students and teachers.  However, with Moodle 4.0 we are no longer solving the same problems.  Moodle 4 is a game changer and as such, we are building a Moodle 4 compatible theme called LearnR .  It will have many similar features and grow over time.  LearnR is focused on the learner and making Moodle as complex or as simple as you would like.

Beautiful Design, Organization Branding, & Marketing
Fordson extends the core Boost theme to provide styling options, customized color choosers, enhanced user interactions, improved navigation, and branding opportunities within the theme.  Depending on your needs, Fordson delivers a variety of style
presets to help you quickly change the look of your site!
Login to Learning
What does this motto mean, “Focused on going from Login to Learning”?  It means we are hyper focused on the user experience that extends from the point of login until the student is engaged with learning.  What does that actually mean from a
plugin?  It means through our theme and related plugins we have looked at and spent time trying to develop a streamlined and intuitive way to go from the Moodle homepage to course content in a way that makes sense for our users.  We developed
the Fordson theme to help with navigation and usability.  We developed the Easy Enrollment plugin to help enroll students into courses directly
from the Moodle homepage.  As of the latest release of Fordson we now have a special course format that we’ve enhanced through our theme to provide a great user experience at the course level.  Install the Collapsible Topics Course Format and
activate the new “Plugin Integration” in Fordson and you will see the difference between the normal course format and how we enhance it through the Fordson theme.  We are focused on going from login to learning and want to share that experience
with the Moodle community.
New!  Plugin Integrations
Announcing Jitsi Server Integration
New for 2020 is Jitsi Meet server integration which automatically puts a Jitsi Meet Launch button at the top of every course in your Moodle site. If 2020 has taught us anything, learning remotely requires a good web conferencing software. Each Moodle class gets a Jitsi Launch button right below the breadcrumbs. If you don’t use Jitsi, just don’t add a title to the Jitsi settings in Fordson. However, we provide the public URL that will work too if you don’t have your own Jitsi server.  check out the main page of the Fordson Theme settings for the new Jitsi integration.
Focused on What Matters
We are focused on the process of getting a student to go from login to learning as efficiently as possible. Once in a course, we utilize a variety of techniques to help students engage with the content and organize the page in a way that helps promote
