OKAY so I realized that this teacher used images 2 ways 1.) within the "question text" which creates XML like this:
<question type="multichoice">
<name><text>1/4w + 4</text>
</name>
<questiontext format="html">
<text><![CDATA[<img border="0" width="228" vspace="0" hspace="0" height="68" src="http://moodle.bloomington.k12.mn.us/file.php/1/7th_Chapter_9/Screen_shot_2011-10-28_at_12.55.49_PM.png" alt="x" title="x" /><br />]]></text>
</questiontext>
<image></image>
and 2.)she used to "image to display" for some which gives me (correct I think) XML code like this:
<question type="multichoice">
<name><text>Approximately what is the measure of the hypotenuse of the triangle?</text>
</name>
<questiontext format="moodle_auto_format">
<text></text>
</questiontext>

This is why some of the images, after being imported, linked to the old entire URL - correct?
Now, I'm assuming the correct way is #2 but the thing is that when she did do it correctly with the #2 method the image did not come over! For example, that second set of code is my XML and when I imported it, the image did not show up. Shouldn't it?
So now 2 questions...
- Is there a way to get the #1 method images over? I bet not..any tips on getting the image over? Looks like we'll be re-doing those.
- Why is the correct method which is generating XML like it should, I think, not sending over the image?
When I look at the question in the new site it puts the image in the "question text" (is there no drop down menu anymore for iamge to dispaly?) but it's a broken image with html like..
img src="http://moodlerific.org/moodle1910/draftfile.php/25/user/draft/505344664/8th_grade_screen_shots/Screen_shot_2011-11-30_at_11.58.12_AM.png" alt=""
One thing I noticed is that the format in the xml is moodle_autoformat but in the original it looked like HTML format..not sure if that matters.
Version 2.1+ - would upgrading fix it? Thanks!
