your troubles are caused by caching. The browsers have cached the Javascript file "mod/hotpot/hotpot-full.js" and are using the old version instead of getting the new one from the server.
You could tell your students to clear their browser cache or have them "force-reload" the page (Ctrl + F5). If you have many students, or if it would be otherwise difficult to instruct them to reset their browsers, you can try the following:
- open "mod/hotpot/lib.php" with a text editor
- locate the following line, (around line 20)
define("HOTPOT_JS", "$CFG->wwwroot/mod/hotpot/hotpot-full.js"); - change the above line to:
define("HOTPOT_JS", "$CFG->wwwroot/mod/hotpot/hotpot-fontana.js"); - save the modified file
- lastly, rename the following file:
mod/hotpot/hotpot-full.jsto
mod/hotpot/hotpot-fontana.js
I am pretty confident that this will fix your "Give Up" button woes, and the navigation nightmare you were having.
The message which says, "There are no users yet" is misleading. It means, "There are no users who have attempted this HotPot yet". As soon as someone attempts the HotPot, or if you change the "All users, All participants, ..." drop down menu on the report page to "All participants" you will get a more meaningful message.
all the best
