| --[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 14:31, 10 May 2010 (UTC) I called this page Lesson settings. I wonder if it could be called Lesson defaults. All the activities have this kind of page. Probably extends to blocks and resources as well. Meaning that a teacher can edit settings, but the admin sets the site wide functions/defaults. This kind of terminology will be less confusing for a teacher/student and understandable (or should be) to an admin.

| ==Moodle 2.0 new places for settings==
| |
| Overview from UI (User interface). Activity modules now can have their look changed via Settings>Plugins>Activity Modules. Lesson has one of the larger screens with 9 variables. I have two questions:
| |
| 1. What should be the generic name for these kinds of pages? See [[Talk:Site_administration_menu_2.0]] for more discussion on this. I decided to go ahead and call this page Lesson settings. Later came up with an alternative name of "Lesson defaults". Figure we can change it later.
| |
| 2. What should be the format for these kinds of pages? I will use Lesson settings to try out some examples.
| |
|
| |
| ==Example 1==
| |
|
| |
| *'''Slideshow width''' (lesson_slideshowwidth} - Sets the width of the slideshow only when this feature is enabled in a Lesson's "Change settings". Default 640.
| |
| * '''Slideshow height''' lesson_slideshowheight - Sets the height of the slideshow Sets the width of the slideshow only when this feature is enabled in a Lesson's "Change settings". Default 480.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| ==Example 2==
| |
| *'''Slideshow width''' variable name: lesson_slideshowwidth, Default 640.
| |
| **Sets the width of the slideshow Sets the width of the slideshow only when this feature is enabled in a Lesson's "Change settings".
| |
| * '''Slideshow height''' variable name: lesson_slideshowheight. Default 480.
| |
| **Sets the height of the slideshow only when this feature is enabled in a Lesson's "Change settings".
| |
|
| |
| ==Example 3==
| |
| ===Slideshow width===
| |
| Sets the width of the slideshow only when this feature is enabled in a Lesson's "Change settings".
| |
| *Variable name: lesson_slideshowwidth, Default 640.
| |
|
| |
| ===Slideshow height===
| |
| Sets the height of the slideshow only when this feature is enabled in a Lesson's "Change settings".
| |
| *Variable name: lesson_slideshowheight, Default 480.
| |
|
| |
| ==Example 4 with table for techies==
| |
| Default for site wide Lessons can be set here.
| |
| {| style="width:75%" border="0"
| |
| |-
| |
| | Default ||Variable name
| |
| |}
| |
|
| |
| ===Slideshow width===
| |
| Sets the width of the slideshow only when this feature is enabled in a Lesson's "Change settings"
| |
|
| |
| {| border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="75%"
| |
| |-
| |
| | 640 ||lesson_slideshowwidth
| |
| |}
| |
|
| |
| ===Slideshow height===
| |
| Sets the height of the slideshow only when this feature is enabled in a Lesson's "Change settings".
| |
| {| style="width:75%" border="0"
| |
| |-
| |
| | 480 ||lesson_slideshowheight
| |
| |}
| |
|

| --[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 11:45, 10 May 2010 (UTC) I like Example 3. KISS format, puts developer info in bullet, explains function first, sub heading allow user to jump to section via a TOC.
