• blockname: must be an unprefixed block name: 'course_recycle' or 'dashboard' or 'configurable_report' for example.
• blockidentifier: a block identifier. (*)
• courseidentifier: a “course” object identifier. For example: idnumber:<courseidnum>
• location: a block region identifier, for example: side-pre or side-post. This may depend on the theme. The default value should add the block to the default block region (where the add-block widget is located in the interface).
• position: a position (numeric integer) or the keywords first or last.

• location : side-post
• position : 0

These default values cannot be altered by the MoodleScript syntax in the current version.

• showinsubcontext : 0
• pagetypepattern : course-view-*

(*) This assumes the block identifiers provided by the installation of certain third-party plugins are in place.
