Feedback templates shareable between courses?

Feedback templates shareable between courses?

by Ted Osborne -
Number of replies: 6

I'm using Moodle 2.1 and, in Course A, I created a Feedback activity and saved it as a template. It seems like I can reuse the template within Course A just fine, but when I add a Feedback activity in Course B, the template is not listed in the "Use a template" box. Is this normal behavior?

Thanks, 

Ted

Hi Ted,

this feature is disabled since moodle 2.0 because there were some problems with the new file api.
In moodle 2.2 this feature is back.

Best regards

I upgraded to 2.2.1+ because of this problem, but still can´t use my question-template in a feedback-activity in another course. sad Or is this a different question? There is no template for the hole feedback, just for the questions, is there? ( I still have to give a name and a description by myself)

Hope you can help!

Hi Claudia,

in moodle 2.2 public templates are handled in a slightly differend way than in moodle 1.9.
All public templates will be saved at the system-context.
That means, you have to have the needed permissions to do that.
The capability you need is "createpublictemplate" in a global context.
On standard configuration only the admin has this right.
If you have the right you can find the checkbox "public" near by the "save as new template" button.
I hope it helps a bit.

Best regards
Andreas

Hi, I am using Moodle 2.0.3 and I see no such link as admin... Is there something that I need to configur somewhere in order to see this link?
