Adding URL resource in 2.2 does not allow Navigation in Same Window with or w/o Frame

Adding URL resource in 2.2 does not allow Navigation in Same Window with or w/o Frame

In 1.9 I used to insert a URL to a video using Insert Resource, Link to a File or Website, giving me this page.

 

 

This allowed me to set Window Navigation to Same Window, Show Navigation, With Frame or Without Frame.

I found this good for users, to have the Screencast.com video showing within my Moodle.

---------

With 2.2, I add the video using Add Resource, Add URL.  I don't have the same options, just Auto, Embed, Open, Pop-up, as below.

 

  

So, if I just use Automatic, I get a Screencast.com page, and no way back, except the Back button.  If the user doesn't know about this, they may close the window.

So I am thinking Pop-ups.  But that of course 'breaks the back button'.  Choose your poison..!

So, is there any simple way in 2.2 to have it within a frame as per 1.9 please?

Hi there. Look in the docs for URL and the site admin settings http://docs.moodle.org/20/en/URL_module_settings#Site_administration_settings

You can change the display options.

Thanks a million Mary - I should have figured that myself - it works really well.  

Esp with the breadcrumbs, it will make for a much happier user I think.

Thanks again smile
