Subject: [Xerte] Is your organisation using Xerte Online Toolkits? If so
	help us add you to our informal list of known organisations...
Message-ID: <015601d0365e$6e3cd2d0$4ab67870$@co.uk>

Hi all

apologies for cross posting.

 

We would like to quickly update our list of organisations that we know to be
using Xerte Online Toolkits. In future we will have a 'register your
installation' button and form as part of the Xerte management interface but
for now we would like to quickly update our list of known organisations.
Initially this is to display during a forthcoming international conference.
The simple form we are using right now also provides an opportunity to
provide an anonymous comment or quote if you wish. 

 

So if your organisation is using Xerte please add your organisation name to
this simple form: http://goo.gl/forms/fm7YYmrcqk 

Don't worry about whether someone else has already added your organisation
we will filter duplicates. 

The form will be live until noon on Wednesday 28th January. At some future
point thereafter we will add the resulting list to one of our community
pages and then share the link via the lists. 

 

Please feel free to share this request and link to your own communities if
any are Xerte users.

 

Thank you.

Ron

PP Xerte development team

Hi.

When I received your email, my first thought was that our English Language
school is very, very small, and would do Xerte no real favour by its
listing.  (Despite that, we really try to present our material in
interesting digital format.)

We use your OnlineToolkits quite a lot in our material presentation, and
would use it an awful lot more if we could figure out how to make TaskChain
(which supports Xerte Scorm files) work in Moodle2.7.

Please let us know if you have a minimum size for the organisations you
wish to be included.

Thanks,
Ann Turner

Hi

one of the great things about Xerte (XOT) is that there are so many reasons why it's great for all organisations large and small! So I certainly don't think anyone would say that we have a minimum size to be included in our listing. This is an informal list anyway, we're unlikely to hear from everyone and it's often a nice surprise to hear about those using xerte that we didn't know about. Please do use the form to add your organisation.

 

Are you using the latest version of TaskChain? I know there have been previous discussions on moodle.org leading to changes in the TaskChain module to ensure xerte content works. Any problems are most likely to lie within the TaskChain code rather than the Xerte output.

 

HTH

Ron

Hi Ron,

Thank you for the very encouraging reply - I will add our school to the
list with more confidence now.

A quick reply to the TaskChain question - yes, we are using the latest
version, and I am absolutely sure the problem lies in TaskChain - well, in
our misunderstanding of how to use it, not the plug-in itself - and not
with Xerte. I've tried adding Hot Potatoes, TexToys and Xerte files, all
with the same frustrating failure.  I have also tried contacting Gordon
Bateson, but with no success.

Thanks so much,
Ann

Subject: [Xerte] Problem with navigation icons in XoT objects
Message-ID: <7772-54cb7a00-7-6440a780@257695176>

Recently I noticed that there accurred a problem with the navigation links under the objects created in XoT.
I will add a screen shot that will clarify what I mean. As you can see, the navigation icons are missing in the view.

This behaviour occurs in both the XoT webinterface as in the Chamilo learning environment where we import the scorm objects created in XoT.
I tested this on multiple pc's with multiple accounts and multiple browsers. All show the same missing navigation links.

Can anyone help me troubleshoot this problem?

best regards,
robb?

I suspect that's the known issue due to changes on the mathjax server. You either need to upgrade your install to a later revision or follow the instructions below:

 

MathJax changed their MathJax CDN hosting. Specifically they changed the https:// address we use in Xerte Online Toolkits. You can read more about that change here: www.mathjax.org/changes-to-the-mathjax-cdn/

 

There are 3 files in the Xerte install which point to the now broken source.

 

The 2.1 distribution, and 2.1 update packages are fixed.

 

You can also patch your installation:

 

These are the files that need fixing:

\modules\site\play.php

\modules\site\preview.php

\modules\xerte\player_html5\rloObject.htm

The change needed is to change

<script type="text/javascript" src="c328740.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com/mathjax/late...ML-AM_HTMLorMML-full"></script>

to

<script type="text/javascript" 

src="//cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js?config=TeX-AMS-MML_HTMLorMML">

</script>
