Hi Jeff,
if you haven't done so already please visit Site Administration -> Notifications, then please could you confirm whether or not QuizPort appears in Site Administration -> Modules -> Activities -> Manage Activities, and is enabled (open eye).

Finally, please you report what version of PHP you are using (Site Administration -> Server -> PHP info)

thanks
Gordon

I see. Then it looks like QuizPort is not installed.

Would did you mean when you said earlier "all the update files show up"?. I thought you meant that you saw the messages sayng the database tables for QuizPort had been set up, but now that seems not to be the case, so I wonder if you could rephrase or elucidate a little more.

What to try next? Well, you could try switching Site administration -> Server -> Debugging to it's highest level, "Developer", and see if you get any error messages when you access the admin Notifications screen again.

If that doesn't help, I would love to come and have a look at the server myself. Could you send me private email with the access details to the server?

In particular I would need to be able to upload files to the QuizPort folder on your server in order to investigate properly. I have a hunch that there is some incompatability between QuizPort and PHP4.

I have some errors at the bottom of the pages

otice: Use of undefined constant loggedinas - assumed 'loggedinas' in /hsphere/local/home/jefffinn/expedioscientiam.net/moodle/theme/power-of-science/footer.html on line 4

But nothing new shows up in the notificatio area. Am sending you an email.

Thanks,

Hi Jeff,
those messages are from the theme, so you might like to pass them on to the maintainer of the "power-of-science" theme, and I am sure they will be happy to fix up the theme for you.

Thanks for giving me access to your Moodle site.

> QuizPort is not showing up in
> Site Administration -> Modules -> Activities -> Manage Activities.

Looks like some misunderstanding here. I logged in and went to Site administration -> Modules -> Acitivties -> Manage activities, (note you have to actually click on "Manage activities" link to see the page showing the list of available Activity modules), where I saw that the QuizPort module was listed. Great, it was installed after all.

However, the QuizPort module was disabled (closed eye). I enabled it, by clicking on the "closed eye" so that it changed to an "open eye", and then confirmed that QuizPort now appears in the "Add an activity ..." menus in the course pages when they are in edit mode.

QuizPort installed fine and seems to be working OK on your Moodle site. Thanks for allowing me to confirm that QuizPort installs on PHP4 approve

best regards
Gordon

Gordon,

I swear it was not there. However, I was having a hectic day and maybe missed it.

Nevertheless, great job and great thanks.

Jeff

Hi Jeff,
no problem and thanks again for letting me have a look.

Hope you enjoy QuizPort and I am especially interested to see if it perfoms up to standard for you with regard to math teaching. I believe QuizPort is compatible with Moodle's math filters (Tex et al.) so please give them a spin and let us know how you get on.

all the best
Gordon
