The theme selector block is 'free' software under the terms of the GNU GPLv3 License, please see 'COPYING.txt'.
It can be obtained for free from: https://github.com/gjbarnard/moodle-block_theme_selector
You have all the rights granted to you by the GPLv3 license. If you are unsure about anything, then the FAQ - http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html - is a good place to look.
If you reuse any of the code then I kindly ask that you make reference to the theme.
If you make improvements or bug fixes then I would appreciate if you would send them back to me by forking from https://github.com/gjbarnard/moodle-block_theme_selector and doing a 'Pull Request' so that the rest of the Moodle community benefits.
- Follow Moodle's instructions for installing plugins, see: Installing Moodle links.
- Turn editing mode on.
- Go to Site administration -> Plugins -> Blocks -> Theme selector and decide if you want URL switching or not. When URL Switching is off only users with the 'moodle/site:config' capability will be able to change themes. Theme changes are permenant for all. When URL Switching is on everybody can change the theme but it will only be for them. The set site theme will remain as set by a user with 'moodle/site:config' capability.
- Add the "Theme selector" block wherever you like.
- The selector will show the current theme as the one selected.
