| ==Feedback== | | == Link to "Site administration"? == |
| Very interesting wiki site!... Thanx! --[[User:HarryRens|HarryRens]] 15 October 2005 23:42 (WST)
| | Re Site administration - stupid question I know but... how do you get to https://docs.moodle.org/20/en/Site_administration from this Main Page? --[[User:Mary Cooch|Mary Cooch]] 17:49, 13 August 2011 (WST) |

|
| "that everyone may contribute to." is bad English. Better to write "to which everyone may contribute."
| | : Hi Mary, AFAIS there's no link yet, see [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Site_administration]]. The available links on the main page for site administration look rather haphazard to me. They seem to be derived from [[Template:Managing a Moodle site items]] which also is used for the menu block on every admin documentation page, e.g. [[Managing a Moodle site]]. So you could add <nowiki>[[Site administration]]</nowiki> to that template. --[[User:Frank Ralf|Frank Ralf]] 23:43, 15 August 2011 (WST) |

| == Discussions == | | ==It is no longer new, but always under construction== |
| There is very little discussion about MoodleDocs that I can find. I know there used to be a whole course at moodle.org dedicated to discussions about documentation, but that appears to have vanished. Is there a substitute for it? Where can I ask questions about this wiki? For example: How do I change my username from Delius to Gustav? --[[User:Delius|Delius]] 09:41, 26 January 2006 (WST)
| | I don't think this is new any more and unlike higher priced CMSs our documentation is constantly and instantly being improved (thus it is always under construction). I think we need to change the words. I can only ramble in my attempts. Helen usually comes up with something compact and friendly. |
|

|
| :Thanks for your comments. Please note that [[User:Martin|Martin]] will make an announcement about the documentation very soon. Re. changing your username, the easiest way to achieve this is to re-register with username Gustav then add a redirect <code><nowiki>#REDIRECT [[User:Gustav]]</nowiki></code> to your old user page. -- [[User:Helen|Helen]] 17:59, 26 January 2006 (WST)
| | We need to convey that we have changed our philosophy about documenting versions and encourage people to assist in the documentation.--[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 00:05, 21 September 2011 (WST) |

| ::Thanks Helen. I have done that. My username looks more friendly now. --[[User:Gustav|Gustav]] 18:10, 26 January 2006 (WST)
| | ==Links to documentation in other languages== |
|
| |
|
| ==Main page links==
| | Very good suggestion from Ralf H, noted here ready for when we focus on Main page improvements: |
| I'd strongly recommend adding the panel of links from [[About Moodle]] to the [[Main Page]] as well - they're incredibly important. I'm talking about the "Introduction | Background | Philosophy | License | Features | Release Notes | Future | Credits" links. --[[Dan]]
| |
|
| |
|
| :Hi Dan, thanks for your recommendation. The main page content definitely needs a re-think. -- [[User:Helen|Helen]] 02:31, 27 January 2006 (WST) | | "Lots of people start looking on documentation at this page https://docs.moodle.org/20/en/Main_page. It would be fine if they find an information about the main pages in other languages in a block here." |
|
| |
|
| I would like to see a reference to the Moodle Community and the collaborative aspects of learning about both Moodle as a product and as a process. I am not sure where would be the best place to anchor that page. --[[mburnet]]

| |
|
| Just a brief thought re: "featured pages" and "Teaching Don'ts" link--could we also add "Teaching Dos" so that the focus is balanced and a little more positive for newbies stumbling into this page for the first time? --[[User:Lesli Smith|Lesli Smith]]
| | == 2.0 or 2.x == |
|
| |
|
| :Hi Lesli, as requested, [[Teaching Do's]] is now a featured page. Apologies for the delay. --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 04:31, 1 April 2006 (WST)
| | I guess this doc was created for 2.1 and 2.2 and so on. |
| | Or do you plan to start over for 2.1? |

| == Fantastic Stuff ==
| | :The plan is to copy this wiki to form the basis of the Moodle 2.1 documentation then copy the 2.1 wiki to form the basis of the 2.2 documentation. --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 22:11, 3 October 2011 (WST) |
| | |
| Just wanted to pop in quickly and say a huge thankyou to Helen for this fantastic resource.
| |
| | |
| Your work here is looking fantastic. So much for adding your time and expertise to this community. I know what it is like to juggle many hats. If you ever need a hand you need only ask :)
| |
| | |
| Looking forward to seeing this integrated into 1.6.

| :: Thanks guys, though it's everyone's contributions that will make Moodle Docs into a great resource! --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 03:57, 23 February 2006 (WST)

| I'm a little late, but I also want to <b>thank you</b> so much for this wonderful resource. :-D --[[User: Lesli Smith|Lesli]]

| == Add links to international versions (es,...) ==
| |
| | |
| Since https://docs.moodle.org is the main site for Moodle Documentation, there must be links to the different international versions, such as the Spanish one: https://docs.moodle.org/es . Maybe something similar to the Wikipedia home page: http://www.wikipedia.org . If not, just links to international versions in the main English page.
| |
| | |
| :Hi David, you're very welcome to add inter-language links - please check the [[MoodleDocs:Guidelines for contributors|guidelines for contributors]] for more details. --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 05:54, 18 February 2006 (WST)

| == Upload Flash ==
| |
| | |
| Is it possible to upload Flash files? I tried to do so via the same interface we use for uploading images, but had no luck. --[[User:Art Lader|Art Lader]] 19:10, 22 February 2006 (WST)
| |
| | |
| :Hi Art, sorry it's not possible to upload Flash files for security reasons. Please could you explain what you would like to do, and perhaps send me a sample file, then I'll investigate alternative options. --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 03:53, 23 February 2006 (WST)
| |
| | |
| : That is not a probelm, Helen. I have upgraded to SnagIt 8.0 and can add tooltips to screen captures. Just wanted to see if that improved the documentation. No big deal, though. --[[User:Art Lader|Art Lader]] 06:28, 23 February 2006 (WST)

| | |
| == Image on the front page ==
| |
| | |
| Can we have a nice image somewhere on the front page, something documenty like books maybe? Just to make the home page stand out a little from the subpages. [[User:Martin Dougiamas|Martin Dougiamas]] 22:26, 14 April 2006 (WST)
