How can I use standard help framework (
) that pops up a small window with help messages and images to insert new help tags at various places such as-
1) inserted along with offline content
2) inserted with Quiz instructions
3) inserted with Quiz/Question Feedbacks
Do I need to create custom module to be able to add help tags. Any code snippet would be great help.
Thanks,
RJ
At the moment there is no way to use the help icon system in user-input content.
Probably, if you wanted to make that possible the way to do it would be a new text filter that took some appropriate input syntax (e.g. [helpicon|title goes here|content goes here] and converted it into a help icon.
Filters are one of the easiest sorts of plugin to create.
How about inserting such help tags inside a module.
One of the places I am trying to add such help tags, is inside a custom course format.
Is there any reference document or code snippet that I can use to code that piece?
Thanks,
RJ
Oh, sorry, I misunderstood. In your own code:
In 1.9, the function is called print_help_icon, if I remember right. There is also print_heading_with_help.
In Moodle 2.0, it would be $OUTPUT->help_icon.
In either case, search for existing code to see how the function is used.
Thank you Tim,
This helps.
