OK. Does it impact the re-write rule? At this point I'd rather just make it work, than be graceful... what I think it means is that for bootstrap tempaltes, the url the wizard tries to load will be preview_site.php and play_site.php? I'm not sure if it affects what you're talking about or not?

I didn't change it (combine preview of site and xerte) because the url parameters were different, and I felt we hadn't time to test changes thoroughly enough, so at the moment I only changed the absolute minimum.

In the wizard (I think you mean) is code that launches the site template that does something along the lines of (if template.runtime = 'preview_site.php') blah which launches the site template in the preview_site page. If you remember, way back when, when we originally anticipated different runtimes, we had a runtime param in the xwd file to point to alternative renderers for content. If you want to look it's in function preview()

I would have thought that when the recent modularisation stuff was done, this might have been made redundant, or handled differently, and maybe this code should change? But I don't have enough sight of the other side of the coin to know how?

Looks like something is up in the engine as well?

Ah ok. olet me work on the rewriteRule, because it doesn't allow for extra parameters now......

Just been testing this a bit more and for instance with the editor open clicking play to preview works fine with Apache/.htaccess enabled or not but clicking Ctrl + Play with Apache/.htaccess enabled results in http://vle.jisctechdis.ac.uk/xerte/preview_310&engine=other and so doesn't work ends up with a page not found

What needs to change or be added to the .htaccess?

e.g.
rewriteRule ^preview_([A-Za-z0-9]+)$ /xerte/preview.php?template_id=$1

I think it's a similar problem for the export links.

I think this is an important issue for those using .htaccess previously (e.g. Nottingham) because if Apache was switched off via management existing links would obviously break. But at the moment with Apache enabled I don't think export and Ctrl + Play works.

Nothing I've done alters the rules I think

Hi
has anyone updated the .htaccess rules for the latest version?

I have three different installations on the Techdis server that I've upgraded now and only just noticed that export doesn't work on the installation using .htaccess whereas it did previously so I'm guessing some of the export rules need amending. Anyone tried this yet and/or updated the rules?

Cheers
Ron
