[Xerte] Re: xot mobile version problem with templates and importing objects from a different xot

Looking at earlier posts by Karl Drinkwater, he used the desktop version of
Xerte for quite a while. He may well have moved over now to XOT now, but it
may be worth checking that the learning object was created in XOT and not
desktop Xerte.

Kind regards
