Hi Narayanasamy,

Have you noticed the rating button below the posts of people who give you helpful advice?

It's a way of saying "Thank you" to generous people who give their time and know-how for free.

Cheers,

Hi Kevser,

Have you checked what you've done against Stan Bodanvov's list of 15 Common Mistakes When Making HotPotatoes Exercises?

I still make some of these mistakes after many, many years of using Hot Potatoes.

Just to confirm it worked fine for me on Firefox : 35.0.1 (Windows 7) as well as on OS X 10.8.5.

Hi Susanna,

I'm still here though not using Moodle any more because I retired over 4 years ago. The exercises I put on Book are still on line here : Limericks: Stress & Schwa exercises. I don't remember exactly how I did it but it was very simple: basically I uploaded the exercises to Moodle and then linked to them from within Books so that they open in a popup window. I can give you teacher access to the course, if you like so that you can poke around to see how it was done. I did them originally for Moodle 1.9 but they seem to continue working fine on Moodle 2

Contact me privately - my email is in my profile - to get the ID.

Cheers,

Hi Chip,

I totally agree with Gordon that JMatch Sort is a better solution to your Vowels and Consonants exercise. You'll find exactly how to do it on Stan's site here: Add-ons - and scroll down to JMatch Sort (89) v.1.4.3. It assumes you know how to install add-ons, see:

• Hacking Hot Potatoes: A detailed workshop with ten examples
• Hacking in Hot Potatoes: A little knowledge brings a lot of power
• How to edit the source files

Here's a working exercise: Letter A - Practice Mode.

Cheers,

Glenys
