<p>Stronk7: /* Administration APIs */</p> <hr /> <div>A guide for developers on how to create a repository plugin.<br /> <br /> <br /> == Introduction ==<br /> ===Prerequisites===<br /> Before starting coding, it is necessary to know how to use repository administration pages and how to use the file picker.<br /> <br /> ===First steps===<br /> # Create a folder for your plugin in ''moodle/repository/'' e.g. ''moodle/repository/myplugin''<br /> # Create the following files and add them to the plugin folder:<br /> #* ''repository.class.php''<br /> #* ''icon.png'' (the icon displayed in the file picker)<br /> # Create the language file ''repository_myplugin.php'' and add it to the plugin folder, keeping the following folder structure:<br /> #*''moodle/repository/myplugin/lang/en_utf8/repository_myplugin.php'' or ''moodle/lang/en_utf8/repository_myplugin.php''<br /> <br /> ===Overview===<br /> <br /> The 3 different parts to write<br /> # Administration - You can customise the way administrators and users can configure their repositories. <br /> # File picker integration - The core of your plugin, it will manage communication between Moodle and the repository service, and also the file picker display.<br /> # I18n - Internationalization should be done at the same time as you're writing the other parts.<br /> <br /> ==Administration APIs==<br /> <br /> As an example, let's create a Flickr plugin for accessing a public flickr account. The plugin will be called &quot;Flickr Public&quot;.<br /> <br /> Firstly the skeleton:<br /> <br /> &lt;code php&gt;<br /> &lt;?php<br /> /**<br /> * repository_flickr_public class<br /> * Moodle user can access public flickr account.<br /> *<br /> * @license http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html GNU Public License<br /> */<br /> class repository_flickr_public extends repository {<br /> }<br /> ?&gt;<br /> &lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> Then consider the question &quot;What does my plugin do?&quot;<br /> <br /> In the Moodle file picker, we want to display some flickr public repositories directly linked to a flickr public account. For example ''My Public Flickr Pictures'', and also ''My Friend's Flickr Pictures''. When the user clicks on one of these repositories, the public pictures are displayed in the file picker.<br /> <br /> In order to access to a flickr public account, the plugin needs to know the email address of the Flickr public account owner. So the administrator will need to set an email address for every repository. Let's add an &quot;email address&quot; setting to every repository.<br /> <br /> &lt;code php&gt;<br /> //We tell the API that the repositories have specific settings: &quot;email address&quot;<br /> public static function get_instance_option_names() {<br /> return array('email_address');<br /> }<br /> <br /> //We add an &quot;email address&quot; text box to the create/edit repository instance Moodle form<br /> public function instance_config_form(&amp;$mform) {<br /> $mform-&gt;addElement('text', 'email_address', get_string('emailaddress', 'repository_flickr_public'));<br /> $mform-&gt;addRule('email_address', get_string('required'), 'required', null, 'client');<br /> }<br /> &lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> So at this moment all our Flickr Public Repositories will have a specific email address. However this is not enough. In order to communicate with Flickr, Moodle needs to know a Flickr API key (http://www.flickr.com/services/api/). This API key is the same for any repository. We could add it with the email address setting but the administrator would have to enter the same API key for every repository. Hopefully the administrator can add settings to the plugin level, impacting all repositories. The code is similar the repository instance settings:<br /> &lt;code php&gt;<br /> //We tell the API that the repositories have general settings: &quot;api_key&quot;<br /> public static function get_type_option_names() {<br /> return array('api_key');<br /> }<br /> <br /> //We add an &quot;api key&quot; text box to the create/edit repository plugin Moodle form (also called a Repository type Moodle form)<br /> public function type_config_form(&amp;$mform) {<br /> //the following line is needed in order to retrieve the API key value from the database when Moodle displays the edit form<br /> $api_key = get_config('flickr_public', 'api_key');<br /> $mform-&gt;addElement('text', 'api_key', get_string('apikey', 'repository_flickr_public'), <br /> array('value'=&gt;$api_key,'size' =&gt; '40'));<br /> $mform-&gt;addRule('api_key', get_string('required'), 'required', null, 'client');<br /> }<br /> &lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> Have we finished yet?<br /> <br /> Yes! We have created everything necessary for the administration pages. But let's go further. It would be good if the user can enter any &quot;Flickr public account email address&quot; in the file picker. In fact we want to display in the file picker a Flickr Public repository that the Moodle administrator can never delete. Let's add:<br /> <br /> &lt;code php&gt;<br /> //this function is only called one time, when the Moodle administrator add the Flickr Public Plugin into the Moodle site.<br /> public static function plugin_init() {<br /> //here we create a default repository instance. The last parameter is 1 in order to set the instance as readonly.<br /> repository_static_function('flickr_public','create', 'flickr_public', 0, get_system_context(), <br /> array('name' =&gt; 'default instance','email_address' =&gt; null),1);<br /> }<br /> &lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> That's all - the administration part of our Flickr Public plugin is done. For your information, Box.net, Flickr, and Flickr Public all have similar administration APIs.<br /> <br /> ===Functions===<br /> All of the following functions are optional. If they're not implemented, your plugin will not have manual settings and will have only one instance displayed in the File Picker (The repository API creates this unique instance when the administrator add the plugin).<br /> <br /> ==== get_instance_option_names====<br /> ''This function must be declared static''&lt;br&gt;<br /> Return an array of strings. These strings are setting names. These settings are specific to an instance.<br /> If the function returns an empty array, the API will consider that the plugin displays only one repository in the file picker.<br /> Parent function returns an empty array.<br /> <br /> ====instance_config_form(&amp;$mform)====<br /> This is for modifying the Moodle form displaying the settings specific to an instance.<br /> <br /> For example, to add a required text box called email_address:<br /> &lt;code php&gt;<br /> $mform-&gt;addElement('text', 'email_address', get_string('emailaddress', 'repository_flickr_public'));<br /> $mform-&gt;addRule('email_address', $strrequired, 'required', null, 'client');<br /> &lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> ''Note: ''mform'' has by default a name text box (cannot be removed).''<br /> <br /> Parent function does nothing.<br /> <br /> ====get_type_option_names====<br /> ''This function must be declared static''&lt;br&gt;<br /> Return an array of string. These strings are setting names. These settings are shared by all instances.<br /> Parent function return an empty array.<br /> <br /> ====type_config_form(&amp;$mform)====<br /> This is for modifying the Moodle form displaying the plugin settings.<br /> Similar to ''instance_config_form(&amp;$mform)''<br /> <br /> ====plugin_init()====<br /> ''This function must be declared static''&lt;br&gt;<br /> This function is called when the administrator adds the plugin. So unless the administrator deletes the plugin and re-adds it, it should be called only once.<br /> Parent function does nothing.<br /> <br /> ==File picker APIs==<br /> === Quick Start ===<br /> '''To be completed'''&lt;br&gt;<br /> First of all, the File Picker using intensively Ajax you will need a easy way to debug. Install firePHP (MDL-16371) and make it works. It will save you a lot of time.<br /> <br /> Your first question when you write your plugin specification is 'Does the user need to log-in'?&lt;br&gt;<br /> .....<br /> <br /> For most of plugins, you need to establish a connection with the remote repository. This connection can be done into the get_listing(), constructor() function...&lt;br&gt;<br /> .....<br /> <br /> You wanna display a list of files once the user is logged&lt;br&gt;<br /> .... get_listing() .....<br /> <br /> You wanna retrieve the file that the user selected&lt;br&gt;<br /> ....<br /> <br /> Optional question that you should ask yourself is 'Does the user can execute a search'&lt;br&gt;<br /> .... search() ....<br /> <br /> ===Functions you *MUST* override===<br /> ====__construct====<br /> You may initialize your plugin here, such as:<br /> # Get options from database<br /> # Get user name and password from HTTP POST<br /> <br /> ====get_listing($path=&quot;&quot;)====<br /> This function will return a list of files, the list must be a array like this:<br /> &lt;code php&gt;<br /> $list = array(<br /> 'path'=&gt;'/var/repo/',<br /> 'manage'=&gt;'http://webmgr.moodle.com',<br /> 'list'=&gt; array(<br /> array('title'=&gt;'filename1', 'date'=&gt;'01/01/2009', 'size'=&gt;'10MB', 'source'=&gt;'http://www.moodle.com/dl.rar'),<br /> array('title'=&gt;'folder', 'date'=&gt;'01/01/2009', 'size'=&gt;'0', 'children'=&gt;array())<br /> )<br /> );<br /> &lt;/code&gt;<br /> '''The full specification:'''<br /> &lt;code php&gt;<br /> array(<br /> // iframe<br /> 'iframe' =&gt; (string) the url of the iframe, once this option is set, the right panel in file picker will display a iframe instead tree view or thumbnail view, in this mode, plugin developers could design the layout of repository freely, there is a function named repository_downoload_btn, it will display a download button which can help to move files to moodle file system.<br /> // the current path<br /> 'path' =&gt; (string) path for the current folder<br /> // dynload tells file picker to fetch list dynamically, when user click<br /> // the folder, it will send a ajax request to server side.<br /> 'dynload' =&gt; (bool) use dynamic loading,<br /> // will display a link in file picker<br /> 'manage' =&gt; (string) url of the file manager,<br /> // set to true, the login link will be removed from file picker<br /> 'nologin' =&gt; (bool) requires login,<br /> // set to true, the search link will be removed from file picker<br /> 'nosearch' =&gt; (bool) no search link,<br /> // set this option will display a upload form in file picker<br /> // only used in upload plugin currently<br /> 'upload' =&gt; array( // upload manager<br /> 'name' =&gt; (string) label of the form element,<br /> 'id' =&gt; (string) id of the form element<br /> ),<br /> // file picker will build a file tree according this <br /> // list<br /> 'list' =&gt; array(<br /> array( // file<br /> 'title' =&gt; (string) file name,<br /> 'date' =&gt; (string) file last modification time, usually userdate(...),<br /> 'size' =&gt; (int) file size,<br /> 'thumbnail' =&gt; (string) url to thumbnail for the file,<br /> 'thumbnail_width' =&gt; (int) the width of the thumbnail image,<br /> 'source' =&gt; plugin-dependent unique path to the file (id, url, path, etc.),<br /> 'url'=&gt; the accessible url of file<br /> ),<br /> array( // folder - same as file, but no 'source'.<br /> 'title' =&gt; (string) folder name,<br /> 'path' =&gt; (string) path to this folder<br /> 'date' =&gt; (string) folder last modification time, usually userdate(...),<br /> 'size' =&gt; 0,<br /> 'thumbnail' =&gt; (string) url to thumbnail for the folder,<br /> 'children' =&gt; array( // an empty folder needs to have 'children' defined, but empty.<br /> // content (files and folders)<br /> )<br /> ),<br /> )<br /> )<br /> &lt;/code&gt;<br /> Dynamically loading<br /> Some repositories contain many files which cannot load in one time, in this case, we need dynamically loading to fetch them step by step, files in subfolder won't be listed until user click the folder in file picker treeview.<br /> <br /> As a plug-in developer, if you set dynload flag as '''true''', you should return files and folders (set children as a null array) in current path instead of building the whole file tree.<br /> <br /> Example of dynamically loading<br /> See [http://cvs.moodle.org/moodle/repository/alfresco/repository.class.php?view=log Alfresco] plug-in<br /> <br /> ===Functions you can override===<br /> ====print_login====<br /> This function will help to print a login form, for the Ajax file picker, this function will return a<br /> PHP array to define this form.<br /> &lt;code php&gt;<br /> public function print_login(){<br /> if ($this-&gt;options['ajax']) {<br /> $user_field-&gt;label = get_string('username', 'repository_boxnet').': ';<br /> $user_field-&gt;id = 'box_username';<br /> $user_field-&gt;type = 'text';<br /> $user_field-&gt;name = 'boxusername';<br /> $user_field-&gt;value = $ret-&gt;username;<br /> <br /> $passwd_field-&gt;label = get_string('password', 'repository_boxnet').': ';<br /> $passwd_field-&gt;id = 'box_password';<br /> $passwd_field-&gt;type = 'password';<br /> $passwd_field-&gt;name = 'boxpassword';<br /> <br /> $ret = array();<br /> $ret['login'] = array($user_field, $passwd_field);<br /> return $ret;<br /> }<br /> }<br /> &lt;/code&gt;<br /> This will help to generate a form by file picker which contains user name and password input elements.<br /> <br /> If your plugin don't require logging in, you don't need to override it, it will call get_listing to list files automatically by default.<br /> ====check_login====<br /> This function will return a boolean value to tell Moodle whether the user has logged in.<br /> By default, this function will return true.<br /> ====logout====<br /> When a user clicks the logout button in file picker, this function will be called. You may clean up the session or disconnect the connection with remote server here.<br /> ====global_search====<br /> Moodle Repository API supports global search, this function will return a boolean value to tell Moodle if this plugin is ready to search. By default, it will return false - you need to override it to enable global search.<br /> ====print_search====<br /> When a user clicks the search button on file picker, this function will be called to return a search form. By default, it will create a form with single search bar - you can override it to create a advanced search form.<br /> ====search====<br /> This function will do the searching job. You can obtain the POST parameters from the from the form you created in print_search function<br /> This function will return a file list exactly like the one from get_listing.<br /> ====get_file====<br /> When a user clicks the &quot;Get&quot; button to transfer the file, this function will be called. Basically, it will download a file to Moodle - you can override it to modify the file then move it to a better location.<br /> ====get_name====<br /> This function will return the name of the repository instance.<br /> <br /> == I18n - Internationalization ==<br /> These following strings are required in ''moodle/repository/myplugin/lang/en_utf8/repository_myplugin.php'' or ''moodle/lang/en_utf8/repository_myplugin.php'':<br /> <br /> &lt;code php&gt;<br /> $string['configplugin'] = 'Flickr Public configuration';<br /> $string['repositorydesc'] = 'A Flickr public repository';<br /> $string['repositoryname'] = 'Flickr Public';<br /> &lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> == Standard repository plugins ==<br /> This is the functional specification list of the officially supported repository plugins.<br /> For each plugins, the two mains part we are interested in are:<br /> * How do I administrate the plugin? See [[Development:Repository_Administration_Specification| Repository Administration Specification - UC001-3]]<br /> * How do I set up an account for this repository?

<p>Stronk7: MT</p> <hr /> <div>This roadmap collects the best information about upcoming features in Moodle. It is not 100% certain - features may change according to available funding and developers.MT<br /> <br /> <br /> == Version 2.0 ==<br /> <br /> Expected mid 2009 &lt;- ''this is obviously wrong! (or, at least, inaccurate) :-P''<br /> <br /> ===Major features===<br /> <br /> * Moodle 2.0 will require PHP 5.2 as a minimum, allowing us to clean up the code in some areas. For more info see: [http://gophp5.org/ gophp5.org].<br /> <br /> ====File handling improvements====<br /> <br /> * [[Development:File API|File API]] - Moodle.com<br /> ::maintains an internal repository of files and governs access to them<br /> <br /> * [[Development:Repository API|Repository API]] - Moodle.com<br /> :: allows users to browse external repositories and select files to bring into Moodle<br /> <br /> * [[Development:Portfolio API|Portfolio API]] - Moodle.com<br /> :: allows Moodle content to be captured and pushed out to external repositories.<br /> <br /> :: These three are separate but complementary so will be developed together.<br /> <br /> ====Improvements to the organisation of courses====<br /> <br /> * [[Development:Conditional activities|Conditional activities]] - Open University (Sam Marshall)<br /> ::Allowing dependencies and forced paths through activities: ie &quot;You can't do this thing until that thing is completed&quot;.<br /> <br /> * [[Development:Progress tracking|Progress tracking]] - REQUIRES FUNDING!<br /> ::AKA Proper competency tracking, so that individuals can have learning plans listing outcomes/courses which are updated when courses are completed.<br /> <br /> * [[Development:Pagelib_2.0|Pagelib 2.0]], [[Development:Blocks_2.0|Blocks 2.0]] - REQUIRES FUNDING!<br /> :: refactor Blocks and Pages using contexts to allow blocks to go anywhere in Moodle with better control.<br /> <br /> * [[Development:Course_completion|Course completion]] <br /> :: interface that allows teachers to specify exactly when a course should be considered finished for each user<br /> <br /> ====Changes to activity modules====<br /> <br /> * [[NWiki roadmap|New Wiki]] module (nwiki) - DFWikiteam-UPC<br /> :: To be cleaned up and included as a core module.<br /> <br /> * [[Feedback module]] - Andreas Grabs<br /> :: Polished and included as a core module.<br /> <br /> * Quiz module and question bank<br /> ** [[Development:Quiz_report_enhancements|Quiz report enhancements]] - Jamie Pratt, contracted by The Open University<br /> **: Major improvements to the quiz reports, especially regrading and item analysis.<br /> ** [[Development:quiz_navigation|Quiz navigation improvements for students]] - Tim Hunt, The Open University<br /> ** [[Development:Flagging_questions_during_a_quiz_attempt|Flagging questions during a quiz attempt]] - Tim Hunt, moodle.com.<br /> ** [[Development:Quiz_UI_redesign|Quiz editing interface improvements]] - Olli Savolainen, [http://www.coss.fi/web/coss/developers/sum Finnish Summer Code project].<br /> ** MDL-8648 Essay questions can now be randomised by random questions. &lt;small&gt;Note that this change is not backwards compatible if you upgrade a Moodle 1.9 site with random questions that pick from categories containing a mixture of essay and non-essay questions.

<p>Stronk7: /* Signature test */</p> <hr /> <div>== Documentation for different versions ==<br /> <br /> Helen<br /> <br /> Is there a mechanism for specifying which version of Moodle a particular document refers to? If, for instance, a feature is only available in version 1.6, how would a 1.5.3 user know they couldn't follow these instructions?<br /> <br /> Equally, if something is done differently in two versions, how would we stop an edit war breaking out between 1.5.3 and 1.6 users?<br /> <br /> I appreciate this probably isn't an issue just yet, but it's possible it may become one in later versions.<br /> <br /> Cheers,<br /> <br /> [[User:CHRISF|CHRISF]] 19:20, 1 February 2006 (WST)<br /> <br /> :Hi ChrisF, thanks for highlighting the issue of differences in Moodle versions. Perhaps a Moodle 1.6 template, inserted using the code &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{Moodle 1.6}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;, may be used to show features specific to Moodle 1.6. What do you think? --[[User:Helen|Helen]] 04:22, 4 February 2006 (WST)<br /> <br /> ::Good idea. I think that would clear it up nicely. [[User:CHRISF|CHRISF]] 18:08, 7 February 2006 (WST)<br /> <br /> == Template styles ==<br /> Hi Helen! I noticed that you reverted my edits on [[Template:Book]] and [[Template:Assignments]]. You were right -- I didn't realise that the [[MoodleDocs:Styling|style]] doesn't match [[MoodleDocs:Style guide|moodle.org style]]. However, the current template doesn't look right either. It should float to the right instead of occupying a substantial part of the upper screen (for eg. on [[Calculated question developer docs]] page) -- this wil provide easier navigation. Also, the tempalate should be colorful and/or bordered -- this looks more attractive and the reader can understand that it is not a part of the article. May be we can have orange or similar colored templates (such as [[Template:Large Installations]] and [[Template:excerpted from Jason Cole]]) that match with moodle.org style? Is there any official style documentation? Is there a moodle.org style guide which describes styles for templates -- I couldn't find one?

The idea is (partly) to provide instructions on how to use the settings page of the filter. You also removed the 'see also' back to the main filters administration page.

No problem with Wikis, i am already the admin of another wikimedia site. Our Moodle.org site has more than 400 people collaborating and i hope to get everybody involved in this new project!<br /> --[[User:Paula de Waal|Paula de Waal]] 02:02, 1 August 2006 (WST)<br /> <br /> == Went through teacher documentation links ==<br /> Hi Helen, before I ran off on vacation (holiday to you :) for a week ) you will notice I did some editing and adjusting. My focus was on what I consider the first impression a new teacher gets when they enter MoodleDocs. Thus I went through most of the links in the text in the teacher documentation page. I also put in some cross links via &quot;see also&quot; and added some images (yeah not real happy see below). <br /> <br /> I would really like us (notice that pronoun) to think about how to made the teacher documentation page look like the administrator documention or developer documentation pages. I would copy the entire contents of the current teacher doc page to a new &quot;course documentation&quot; page. The major task is figuring out the sections for the new teacher doc page, so they function like the admin doc page. That kind of big thinking is just a bit beyond me before vacation perhaps you know of someone who would love that task?<br /> <br /> Changing the teacher doc page also means doublechecking other pages that were linked to it and figuring out it they should point to the new course doc page. I could do that.<br /> <br /> Images, I am still feel akward. I tried a floating table. I tried using thumb, resizing the images with a px and alignment. I still can't figure out an easy way to force a section break so it will not appear to one side of the image, but rather below it. I used a lot of br . The thumb resize method works but the quality of the image is not so hot. Better to have the file the correct size to begin with, but then we might have to have multiple files of the same image in different sizes. <br /> <br /> Keep up the great work. --[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 22:43, 11 August 2006 (WST)<br /> <br /> == Thanks for sorting out the question type documentation ==<br /> <br /> That really needed doing. --[[User:Tim Hunt|Tim Hunt]] 11:28, 11 September 2006 (CDT)<br /> <br /> '''Wowie Zowie Helen '''- oh yeah, that is what we are talking about!

I will be checking and changing links, away from Question types to specific pages on the Question Bank list. --[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 05:33, 12 September 2006 (CDT) <br /> <br /> :Thanks Tim, and a big THANK YOU for your work on the [[Quiz module]]. --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 03:04, 12 September 2006 (CDT)<br /> <br /> Joseph and Chris, thanks for your additional comments, which I've moved to [[Talk:Question types]] --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 02:23, 9 October 2006 (CDT)<br /> <br /> ==mod/helps and redirects in MoodleDocs==<br /> Hi Helen, I need some big picture confirmation, the view wiki page comment raised a little red flag ontop of my Marblehead as dawn seemed to break here in the Great Granite State once again. <br /> <br /> I try to not get into help pages because I understood those were &quot;Please don't edit&quot; pages (and responsibility of developer), which makes a lot of sense, especially with new features. Also Help files have a different format (for example no images or examples of use) because of their in context purpose. What are my guidelines when something is redirected from what I assume is an online help page link like &quot;mod/wiki/helpsome topic&quot; ?<br /> <br /> I am happy to edit and reorganize and add screen shots etc because I am pretty confident now in my edits and reformats (thank you very much and others who follow me around teaching me where to pay attention). When I see a redirect from help, I would like to assume somebody is going to write the help page after the MoodleDoc page has been created. The redirect is the as a sort of &quot;in the meantime&quot;. Same question: is this a good assumption to guide my editing?<br /> <br /> I confess, reading some Moodle help pages causes me to wince, and (just like that pesky<br /> version of the lesson demo with the innapropriate cluster) they keep returning like an old<br /> tooth ache. One of my todo's is to figure out the priorities of rewriting help pages on our<br /> production Moodles . So in the meantime, I pretend all tooth aches are in another world :) <br /> <br /> I am having entirely too much fun this morning, sorry for the lengthy post--[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 06:28, 7 November 2006 (CST)<br /> <br /> ==Quizzes and Questions==<br /> Hi Helen, this could me being confused, but if I am confused......<br /> Example scenario, you go to the Quiz page and you wanted to know about quiz import/export (or worse still you didn't know it existed) that option doesn't exist on the menu. I know why - it's because that isn't part of the Quizzes 'group' (is that the right word? those double squiggly bracket things at the top of the page). It's part of the Questions group. I'm struggling big time to see how the two knit together - I'm not sure that they do! --[[User:Howard Miller|Howard Miller]] 10:42, 1 December 2006 (CST)<br /> <br /> :Hi Howard, the reason why quiz and question pages have different templates is because questions may be used in [[Lesson module|lessons]] as well as quizzes.

I believe we should leave question pages to be primarily about the Quiz module. I did decide that &quot;Tips and tricks&quot; was a good standard place to point out there was a difference. I made an exception in Multple choice because multianswer is so radically different and created a sub heading.<br /> #When I got to True/False question, there were bullets in the intro. I changed it to text to match what I thought was our usual style. The next page was [[Random Short-Answer Matching question type]], something new to me. It had the same thing and noticed you had created the page. <br /> &lt;nowiki&gt;:)&lt;/nowiki&gt; Is it ok if I a) reformat the opening before any sub heading to text (drop the bullets) and, b) change &quot;respondent&quot; to &quot;student&quot;.

Might be a good idea anyway.<br /> &lt;/onlyinclude&gt;<br /> I hasten to say that I am not recommending this approach. The disadvantages could easily outweigh the advantages. I am simply pointing out a technical possibility that may be worth considering either now, or in the future.&lt;onlyinclude&gt;--[[User:Tim Hunt|Tim Hunt]] 07:11, 4 December 2008 (CST)&lt;/onlyinclude&gt;<br /> <br /> :Just added [[MoodleDocs:Transclusion]].

But Wowie Zowie ! --[[User:chris collman|chris collman]] 06:49, 5 December 2008 (CST)<br /> <br /> :: Hello Tim, I think your suggested solution would indeed be overkill and would make maintaining FAQ too difficult. I see FAQ as an intermediary step between the unorganised kind of &quot;documentation&quot; which is provided in the forums towards &quot;real&quot; documentation. Therefore the ease of editing is crucial in my opinion. What about using Moodle's '''autolinking mechanism''' to automatically link to FAQ pages, e.g. if there is a mention of grades in the forums that would create an automatic link to Grades FAQ. I am quite new to Moodle, but couldn't that be done with setting up a kind of FAQ Glossary? --[[User:Frank Ralf|Frank Ralf]] 02:44, 16 December 2008 (CST)<br /> <br /> ::: Hi Tim, thanks for your suggestion, though I think it's overkill too! The current FAQ pages have nice short titles which are easy to find and to include in forum posts. Having a page for each FAQ would result in really long URLs. Also, I think that when we point people to an FAQ page, and they have to look through it to find the answer to their question, they may well find answers to other questions they have. As other people have suggested, I think FAQ pages work well as start pages with links to lots of other pages i.e. they're kept fairly short, for example [[Contributed code FAQ]]. --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 04:49, 18 December 2008 (CST)<br /> <br /> ::: Frank, regarding autolinking to FAQ pages, have you come across the Moodle Docs filter on moodle.org? Please see the [[Moodle.org FAQ]] for more details. --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 04:49, 18 December 2008 (CST)<br /> ::::Helen, thanks for the hint. But isn't that the usual ''manual'' way of wiki linking? But on second thought that might really be the best way of linking to FAQ pages as it keeps getting the forums cluttered with too many (automatic) links. In fact, it just might be a matter of good practice to put advice of lasting value from the forums into a more structured form of documentation and nothing which could or should be done in an automatic and technical way... --[[User:Frank Ralf|Frank Ralf]] 05:11, 19 December 2008 (CST)<br /> <br /> == Security Notification registration ==<br /> <br /> Hi Helen,<br /> <br /> It was suggested to me through the #moodle channel on freenode that I raise this concern with you.<br /> <br /> I'm developing a moodle installation behind a firewall on a non-public URL and am interested in subscribing to security updates (prompted to check this after seeing a moodle vulnerability mentioned on Bugtraq). I had previously attempted to subscribe by registering our installation through the admin pages, however that registration was rejected as the site was located behind a firewall and not accessible.<br /> <br /> Due to that rejection, I wasn't subscribed to security updates.<br /> <br /> I now find myself in the unfortunate position where I cannot subscribe to security updates without having a public facing site (which I can't reasonably know is secure as I'm not receiving security updates through your mailing list).<br /> <br /> The burden for those of us who have an internal site they're developing (or perhaps is in production) is that we must now create a public facing site to register for the sole purpose of receiving security updates. If the thought is that only parties interested in maintaining a moodle site should have access to those messages, perhaps a different measure could be put into place (a code that appears once moodle is installed, for example).<br /> <br /> I've tried subscribing through sympa@lists.moodle.org, however that method does not work either.<br /> <br /> Could you please provide a process for folks like me to get on the security updates list without having to install moodle on a public web server first?<br /> <br /> Thanks!<br /> <br /> - P.<br /> <br /> :Hi Paul, how about subscribing to the [http://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?f=996 security announcements forum], where all important security issues are published. --[[User:Helen Foster|Helen Foster]] 04:34, 18 December 2008 (CST)<br /> == Unseen (not hidden) activities==<br /> Hi Helen (This is partly my attempt at practising here by the way!) I've posted several times recently about the concept of 'unseen' topics with resources that can be linked to on the course page where hidden ones wouldn't work. is there documentation about that somewhere here ? If so, where? Then I can point Moodlers to it next time.If not, shall I write it? Thanks - [[User: Mary Cooch|Mary Cooch]]<br /> <br /> :Hi Mary, I've just had a quick look and can't find any documentation about unseen topics, so it would be helpful if you could write some, perhaps here: [[Course homepage]].
