Hi there,

Well I've understood why: in Lang Teaching the Recent Activity Block only shows messages posted in the hour (rather less in fact) before I log on. Messages older than that are not shown. (It's the same in the Facilitators Corner.) Whereas here in Using Moodle the Block shows all the messages since I last logged out. The same in the Lounge and the French Forum.

Now I know, I know who to ask for help: the dear admin  HF.

Cheers,

Glenys

Hi there,

For some time the Recent activity block hasn't been working for me in the Moodle for Language Teaching "course". Whether there are new posts or not, when I log in it shows:

Can I inadvertently have modified a setting as Facilitator?

If I post a message while logged in it shows up.

On all other forums the Recent activity block works normally for me.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Glenys

Hi Joseph,

It's not because it's in English I understand it!

Mais puisque mon objectif en utilisant le carnet de notes, n'est pas de "noter" les étudiants (dire qu'un est meilleur qu'un autre, un a réussi et un autre pas) mais de les inciter à travailler, je suis assez satisfaite de mon bricolage.

Cheers,

Glenys

Désolée Mary, je n'ai pas de Moodle 2 installé encore. Dès que j'aurai un, je vais le tester.

La solution de cliquer sur "Preview" n'est pas vraiment conviviale, n'est-ce pas?

Merci, Joseph, de me rappeler la discussion en anglais - j'avais oublié qu'il existait MDL-17892 qui demande justement "quiz access for unregistered users (maybe even other modules: forum, glossary, wiki, anything?) "

Cheers,

Glenys

Hi Faruq,

(I found it by doing a Google search for "Hot Potatoes for Moodle 2")

The HotPot module is not included in the standard install of Moodle 2.x.

You need to install it "by hand" like this:

1. downloadthe zip file containing the HotPot module for Moodle 2.x
   • HotPot module for Moodle 2.x
2. when you unzip the file you will find the following two folders:
   • hotpot
     put this folder within the "mod" folder on your Moodle web server
   • question
     this folder contains a folder called "format", which contains a folder called "hotpot". Put this "hotpot" folder within the "question/format" folder on your Moodle web server
3. login to Moodle as a Moodle administrator and the installation of the HotPot module should commence. If not, navigate to Settings -> Site administration -> Notifications

Cheers,

Glenys

PS: For Gordon, why can't I find the Hot Potatoes module in the Moodle Plugins Directory?
