The Buttons course format is a contributed code module. It creates a menu with buttons in JavaScript to access the sections, one by one. It has features to create group of sections (example: modules, period) and change the button colours.
At any time, only one section is visible and the user can change the current section by clicking on the corresponding button.

Populating the sections inside your course
- When you build each section inside your buttons format course, remember that the very first section will be the first section inside grouping 1. In this example, the introduction:
