You can have it so moodle is set only once with the Xerte Object under the LTI Administration[under site administration] (I have included a screenshot from mine) once this is set and the tick box below the custom parameters box is ticked then this will show up in the usual adding a new external tool, type in an activity Name then in the drop down box for external tool type choose the name you gave the object under the site administration don’t enter anything into the launch url and just click save and display. This then means you just select the external tool from the drop down XOT in your case, it suggest the XOT hasn’t been setup as I have said above, there is no reason to additionally enter the url below this.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='color:#1F497D'>There is currently no support to create accounts in the lti additions, All I do is call the authentication mechanism.

It seems a shame that the Moodle settings can't automatically pick up the correct url by selecting the name of the external tool. e.g. If I select XOT as shown in the screenshot (the name I gave to the external tool via admin) I still have to add the url with /lti/ appended for the selection of an LO to work otherwise it just takes me to the standard login screen. Not a problem for me but I can see it being a problem where users just put what they know to be the installation url, or no url at all, rather than knowing or remembering to add /lti/.
