Hi Martin,

Maybe the Do not continue automatically doesn't work in the HotPot Module on Moodle 2 either. Try uploading the .htm file instead of the .jcl file.

It does work in TaskChain, see: White Chistmas - Bing Crosby. Even after you click OK at the end you can stay on the page as long as you want. You'll just have to be patient and wait for TaskChain to have its last buglets worked out. You'll see I'll be very busy in the coming weeks reporting little things to Gordon.

Can't manage to move the box up in TaskChain. Outside TaskChain, the feedback box covers Bing's face - not the exercise.

I can make it write the feedback to the Instruction field, though.

Cheers,

Glenys

Hi Martin,

I don't know why "Do not continue automatically" isn't working for you. On Moodle 1.9 it doesn't in the HotPot Module but it does on QuizPort. Gordon will need to know which version of Moodle you're on and whether you're using the HotPot Module, QuizPort or even TaskChain.

I can help with the feedback box, though. For the reasons you mention I always raise it.

On your computer, make a copy of the HotPot source folder and call it "boxup"or something like that. Open hp6showmessage.js_ in a text editor and in this part:

function ShowMessage(Feedback){
    var Output = Feedback + '<br /><br />';
    document.getElementById('FeedbackContent').innerHTML = Output;
    var FDiv = document.getElementById('FeedbackDiv');
    topZ++;
    FDiv.style.zIndex = topZ;
    FDiv.style.top = TopSettingWithScrollOffset(30) + 'px';

Change the 30 to a smaller value: 10 or 5.

Then select the source file as shown in the screenshots below and regenerate the exercise.

Cheers,

Glenys

Hi Dace,

The Masher itself is not needed in Moodle which provides it's own methods of navigation. You can upload the individual exercise files you've created with the Masher.

PS: If you have more questions, please say which version of Moodle you're using and whether you're using QuizPort, the HotPot Module, TaskChain or something else.

Hi again Gordon,

I downloaded the musicplayer Flash button from Stan Bogdanov's site on his Flash mp3 players page. I made an exercise which validates and works fine outside of Moodle. It also works fine on Moodle 1.9.19 in QuizPort as you can see here: 1-9 Audio. It also works in Book on 1.9.19.

But on Moodle 2.4 it doesn't as you can see here in TaskChain: 1-9 Audio - it doesn't work in Book either.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Glenys

Hi Gordon,

Unless I've missed something, when I create a task, Hot Potatoes exercise, in TaskChain, I don't see anywhere to select the Navigation.

When the task has been created I can go to Settings > Edit task > Up date and then I get Display > Navigation.

Would it be possible to be able to select the Navigation at the time of creating the task as it is in the HotPot Module?

Cheers,

Glenys
