Yeah in the end that's what i did, added it to basic.xwd ran the .bat file yo build template.xwd, renamed to data.xwd and uploaded to svn. Tom then uploaded basic.xwd to the Xerte svn as i don't have write access to that so that it won't get removed if someone else does the same.<br>

<br>
As for enabling by default, you might not want the user to be able to resume also i called resume as we might be able to make it resume in moodle without bookmarking for scorm or experience api purposes...<br>
<br>
It could work in flash too if we so wish in the same way that &page=xxx is fed in... But is it worth it?<br>

Add it as an optional property to the learningObject section of the xwd. Then the author can enable it, and the end user can make use of it. I think I got confused / distracted by the conversation about adding proeprties to each page, you don't need to do that in this case, right? Just one tick box for the author to say 'Enable bookmarking' and then if ticked, your code can run.<br>
<br>
As far as old LOs go, there aren't any HTML5 old ones as such - so you could push it in there and have it always on for HTML5 content without any wizard settings? I take it wouldn't work in the flash version (that's fine).<br>

Too much confusing terminology....<br>
<br>
In my mind it needs added to the wizard so the creator can add it to the LO? Is the wizard not the editor?<br>

So you only need to add it to the LO then?<br>

If you turn it on then it adds an extra resume=xxx parameter to the url. This can then be bookmarred to resume later...<br>

This is going to be a property in the wizard? I'm not sure I follow... a property in the wizard for end users?<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I have hashtag deeplinking working now in such a way that partway through a LO you can bookmark your page and return to that page at a later date. It appends the page number as a hash which overrides any other deeplinking options set. I'd like to get this checked in so that I can have a clear out of work-in-progress.<br>
<br>
I want to make this optional though so as not to affect any existing LOs.<br>
<br>
Can anyone tell me how you add optional properties to the wizard or point me in the general direction of any instructions? Any suggestions as to the name for this optional property also welcome or anything else that comes to mind?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
