I have been wanting to use the Random Glossary block to create a weekly To-Do List for my course. This could be any other sort of information that needs to be displayed for a specific time interval and then changed - e.g., spelling words, important topics, etc.
I have tried to get the Randomness to start on the new week, but have never succeeded in getting the timing right. I have resorted to using an HTML block and manually switching out the lists each Monday.
I do like the Randomness of the the Random Glossary Block, but would like to be able to add a specific start date - anyone have any ideas on how this could be done?
In the options for the block I could see a "Begin to display date" added to the options.
Or perhaps it just becomes a Glossary Block with options to set the display dates, or display at random.
I am not a programmer, but I did submit a feature request, so if you think this would be helpful you could vote for it - MDL-40486
Could even add the limit the size feature suggested here -Random glossary entry - possible to limit block height?
