[Xerte] Re: Online toolkits - import?

[Patrick Lockley]

We are a bit short on space buttons wise, but did wonder about maybe having a second set of button underneath the workspace window.

Maybe someone could try coding it in, see how it works for them?

Thanks for that - it worked great, but I'd have never found it without help.

Maybe it's an option that should move somewhere more obvious (along with moving all the different 'export' options out of the 'properties' window and onto their own button)?

Download as a zip file from the one server. Login to toolkits on the other server and click on “workspace” then click “properties”. Should then see an option to import.

Subject: [Xerte] Online toolkits - import?

I've been playing around with the Xerte Online Toolkits for a couple of weeks and have been very impressed (enough to convince our college to host a copy of it, to see if a few more teachers will take it up).

One thing that is puzzling me though, is that I can't find any way to get an editable version of a project from one site to another - there seems to be options to export as a zip/scorm, to share or give the project to someone else on the same site or to share as XML, but I can't find any option to Import this back in again.

This would be helpful for a couple of reasons:
1. backup - just in case my hosting hits a glitch, or I accidentally click 'delete' on the wrong item
2. transfer to college's hosted version - I've got a few projects I've started on my own site; I'd now like to move them to the version in college.

Is this something that is currently possible? Or is it something that will need further development?
