[Xerte-dev] Re: Idiots guide wanted to add optional property to wizard

[Ron Mitchell]

Hi John

I guess you know this already but to make a property optional you just add
optional="true"

However what I'm not sure about is whether there's an easy way to add a new
optional property for every page which it sounds like you need?

I'm curious though and maybe misunderstanding are you talking about
bookmarking as an author or as a user? If as a user sounds like you need an
addition to the engine rather than the wizard?

 

Also wondering how this going to affect the other issue re .htaccess rules?

Hi,

 

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.

 

I want to make this optional though so as not to affect any existing LOs.

 

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?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Regards,
