Limiting /hiding check button

Limiting /hiding check button

Hi,

I'm working on a way to limit the check button in Hotpot so that it can only be clicked once. I've got it to work in html by modifying the javascript source code according to the great help  I got below. However when I import into moodle it reverts to the source code in the mod/hotpot/source folder.

How do I modify the source code in moodle to produce the same result?

Thanks in advance

 

Gerry

Hi Gerry,

you could try using the HTML file as the source file for the HotPot activity.

Alternatively, you could alter the appropriate file(s) in "mod/hotpot/attempt/hp/6/templates" on your Moodle site, but then you would have to redo your edits if you update or reinstall the HotPot module. Having altered the file(s), you would need to clear the HotPot cache (Moodle -> Settings -> Site administration -> Plugins -> Activity modules -> HotPot module)

regards
Gordon

Thanks. I tried using the html as source but it doesn't work the same in moodle. I've created a test version (attached). This works in any browser but not in moodle.

I'll try and upload from a different server later

I have received it now in the personal email you sent. Thanks. I will investigate ...

P.S. out of interest, I have tried attaching it as a zip file to this post. Seems to work OK.
