This theme is a heavily altered fork of the Indigo theme, intended for a specific use.
Note: This version of the theme is compatible with the Palm release of Open edX.
The Gym theme is a modified version of Indigo, which in turn was specially developed to be used with Tutor (at least v14.0.0). If you have not installed Open edX with Tutor, then installation instructions will vary.
Since the Gym theme is not listed in the Tutor plugins index, you'll have to clone it manually yourself:: Check to see if the folder exists:
cd "$(tutor plugins printroot)"
If it doesn't exit, create it:
mkdir "$(tutor plugins printroot)"
Continue:
cd "$(tutor plugins printroot)" git clone https://github.com/gymnasium/gym-theme pip install -e gym-theme tutor plugins enable gym-theme tutor config save
Rebuild the Openedx docker image:
tutor images build openedx
Restart your platform:
tutor local start -d
You will then have to enable the "gym" theme, as per the Tutor documentation:
tutor local do settheme gym-theme
GYM_WELCOME_MESSAGE(default: "The place for all your online learning")GYM_PRIMARY_COLOR(default: "#3b85ff")GYM_FOOTER_NAV_LINKS(default:[{"title": "About", "url": "/about"}, {"title": "Contact", "url": "/contact"}])GYM_FOOTER_LEGAL_LINKS(default:[{"title": "Terms of service", "url": "/tos"}, {"title": "Gymnasium theme for Open edX", "url": "https://github.com/gymnasium/gym-theme"}])
The GYM_* settings listed above may be modified by running tutor config save --set GYM_...=.... For instance, to remove all links from the footer, run:
tutor config save --set "GYM_FOOTER_NAV_LINKS=[]" --set "GYM_FOOTER_LEGAL_LINKS=[]"
Or, to set the primary color to forest green, run:
# Note: The nested quotes are needed in order to handle the hash (#) correctly. tutor config save --set 'GYM_PRIMARY_COLOR="#225522"'
This plugin can serve as a starting point to create your own themes. Just fork this repository and modify the files as you see fit.
The theme images are stored in gymtheme/templates/gym/lms/static/images for the LMS, and in gymtheme/templates/gym/cms/static/images for the CMS. To use custom images in your theme, just replace the files stored in these folders with your own.
By default, the /about and /contact pages contain a simple line of text: "This page left intentionally blank. Feel free to add your own content". This is of course unusable in production. In the following, we detail how to override just any of the static templates used in Open edX.
The static templates used by Open edX to render those pages are all stored in the edx-platform/lms/templates/static_templates folder. To override those templates, you should add your own in the following folder:
ls gymtheme/templates/gym/lms/templates/static_templates"
For instance, edit the "donate.html" file in this directory. We can derive the content of this file from the contents of the donate.html static template in edx-platform:
<%page expression_filter="h"/>
<%! from django.utils.translation import gettext as _ %>
<%inherit file="../main.html" />
<%block name="pagetitle">${_("Donate")}</%block>
<main id="main" aria-label="Content" tabindex="-1">
<section class="container about">
<h1>
<%block name="pageheader">${page_header or _("Donate")}</%block>
</h1>
<p>
<%block name="pagecontent">Add a compelling message here, asking for donations.</%block>
</p>
</section>
</main>
This new template will then be used to render the /donate url.
