You can change the theme of your Moodle courses.
- Open the main page of the course
- Click “Settings” (location might vary depending on your theme)
- Scroll down and expand the “Appearance” tab
- Choose the theme that you want in the “Force theme” dropdown.
- If you choose “Do not force” the default theme will be used.

The default theme in Moodle 5.1 is Boost, which uses Moodle’s modern navigation and interface.
Other themes are also available on Bilkent Moodle:
- Classic provides a more traditional Moodle layout. If you are more comfortable with the interface of older Moodle versions, Classic may make the transition easier.
- Moove is also available, as it was on Moodle 3.11, providing an alternative modern interface.
- Boost Union is based on Boost but provides considerably more options for customising the appearance and layout of a course.
If you would like to use other themes for your course, contact moodle@bilkent.edu.tr.
