I think the best way forward for WebDAV is just to look at the personal user fileareas only.

In this case WebDAV is just a way to easily dump files into Moodle via drag and drop (perhaps lots of them at once). They end up in a private "repository" that only you can access.

Then when you want to share files or use them in Moodle, you then go to those activities/courses and use the filepicker to bring the files from your private filearea into those more public contexts (forums, resources, etc etc).

I think this workflow would work well for a lot of teachers.

It'll be mostly useful for people who don't already have another type of supported repository that they would use instead (like Dropbox, Box.net, SAMBA etc)

Did you upload them into Moodle using the "Add an activity... -> SCORM/AICC" menu in the course?

What version of Moodle are you using?

Hi,

Just to let you know, cvs.moodle.org is moving to a new server today (from 74.54.45.50 to 174.123.154.58), and you might see some "WARNING: POSSIBLE DNS SPOOFING DETECTED!" warnings from ssh because the IP number has changed.

Fear not, it's a legitimate move.

To fix the warnings, just delete your local copy of the host key and re-connect.

Cheers,
Martin

I would also like to see this information organised properly. Is anyone even using WebDAV properly?

I'd recommend a project-based approach.

You should also set up a Moodle site (using the docs if necessary), think of a real application for Moodle (eg a University or a school) and then try to set up Moodle for that situation). It doesn't have to be a real school, but obviously if it is then you have more motivation

This process will generate questions whenever you get stuck. You can then search for the answers to these questions using the resources here: http://moodle.org/support/
