HotPot files on Moodle 2.0

Hi Gordon,

I did this:

  1. In Legacy Course Files created a zip file called: jcloze_dewplayer.zip
  2. I created a Hot Pot called JCloze dewplayer 23 jan
  3. Source file name > Add > Legacy Course files >jcloze_dewplayer.zip
  4. Unzip creates a folder called: 0 Why not a folder called jcloze_dewplayer? As 0 it doesn't work. sad
  5. I renamed the folder to jcloze_dewplayer
  6. Opened the folder, set 06_audio.htm as main file
  7. Save and display
  8. Dewplayer and image are fine. big grin

From what I've read on the forums, I've understood we're not supposed to use the Legacy course files. It's like counting on your fingers: it works but big boys and girls don't do it. But I still don't understand the grown up way to do it.

Cheers,

Glenys

Hi Glenys,

I split your post onto a new discussion but I believe it is a very important topic for HotPot users and Moodle 1.9.

I like the analogy of counting on your fingers tongueout

I am hoping on that on this thread we can develop useful procedures for efficiently handling files for HotPots in Moodle 2.0. When we have something concrete, I would like to add it to the Moodle Docs page for HotPot for Moodle 2.0.

must dash just now
