I've just released version 7 of Hot Potatoes, seven years after the last update. smile

The new version, which you can get from the HotPot site:

http://hotpot.uvic.ca/

has a number of improvments, including a change to HTML5 output pages, support for drag-drop exercises on touch devices, ability to include reading texts with drag-drop exercises, and many more minor changes. You can install and use version 7 alongside version 6.

All the best,

Thanks as always Martin for your tireless efforts maintaining the Hot Potatoes software and supporting the community.
It is very exciting news about the public release of HP7 👍

I will get to work to make sure that Moodle HotPot can recognize and deliver the HP7 exercises.

Thanks for all your work Gordon! Sorry it took so long. smile We had some very niggly issues to resolve in the drag-drop to handle touch devices that can be rotated while you're in the middle of doing the exercise, among other things.
