Moodle documentation: Moodle Features Demo: hints and ..bugs?

hi!

We installed the Moodle Features Demo and had a look around all features available. It's a great demo courses but i'd like to raise some strange behaviours and hints:

1/ Ressources: A Label
    The picture included to show a Label must include circles/arrows next to the label(s) in order to show exactly what are "labels" in Moodle.

2/ Forums:

2.1 The link " Documentation Project " (in the text included with the 3 forums types) should be fixed: when we click on it, it takes to http://moodle.org/course/view.php?id=29 and we get this message "This course is currently unavailable to students"

2.2 If i login as a teacher and click on help icon in Forums, the text shows 4 types instead of 3. The 4th one Q & A forum doesnt actually exist in Moodle.

3/ Topics: when Topics (default 14 in the Demo Features) is changed in the "settings" to >= 15, bizarre topics appears with strange data inside!

4/ Workshop: the sample Workshop-Sonnets wasn't installed. I can see the topic with the label "workshops" but it's empty after installation of the Demo courses.

Any suggestions/updates are welcome. wink

Hi Ghassan,

Thanks yet again for finding more broken links and other bugs - much appreciated. approve I'll try to fix things within a week, if the other Features Demo maintainers don't get there before me. wink

Please note that your proof-reading skills would be most welcome in Moodle Docs too.

More things to fix in the Moodle Features Demo (MFD):

- Forums: in Activities/forums: a bizarre forum (test) exists . Nobody created it and we couldn't delete it neither. This is true also on Moodle.org MFD course

- Emoticons: All imported emoticons (especially in the Lesson) are broken. I had to fix them one-by-one. They are also broken on the Moodle.org MFD.

- Ressource: A Text Page (markdown formatting): after restore of the course, all markdown text didn't show in the ressource.

Think I have fixed most things that I can with teacher editing rights. I haven't remade the download package yet.

I can't see the test forum you mention (unless I fixed that before and have forgotton).

I can't see any emoticons in lesson or elsewhere. Any particular page in lesson where you saw them?

Hi Darren,

Thanks for fixing things in the Moodle Features Demo. approve

FYI the test forum was deleted by Yu in the Moodle Features Demo, though it still exists in the course backup file. Let's check if there's anything else needing tidying up in the Moodle Features Demo before creating a new course backup. tongueout
