[Xerte] News: Xerte 2.6 and Xerte Online Toolkits 1.5

[Julian Tenney]

Could people copy the files over the top, and then install the new
templates from their .xtp files in Xerte via management.php?

just drag the files over the top, if you've made changes, go through the
bug fix list and see which files have been modified.

 

There are two new templates in this version. So you'll need to fish
through the basic.sql in the setup folder to pick out the new bits (look
for the originaltemplatedetails keyword) - thats if you want these
templates.

 

am in Manchester, sitting next to a tweet stream with a pedometer.

I need to let Pat answer that. He's down in London today and tomorrow
but I'm sure he'll pipe up at some point,

Hello Xerte Team,

Thank you for the upgrades.

What is the correct procedure for upgrading an existing Xerte On-line
toolkits installation to version 1.5?

Kind regards

Johnathan

There is an updated version of Xerte (2.6) and a new version of toolkits
(1.5) on the website for download. Xerte 2.6 is a maintainance release
with a few bug fixes.

Xerte Online Toolkits 1.5 contains two new templates for creating
content:

Media Interactions allows a sequence of interactivity to be presented
alongside a piece of media (sdound / video / flash). We have had a lot
of success with similar content used to teach modern languages.

Multiple Perspectives is a template that allows a number of videos to be
presented, offering the user a number of different perspectives on an
issue or problem. This is a popular pedagogy in the arts and humanities,
where problems may not have a single 'right' answer. The template aims
to deepen the user's understanding of the issue or problem.

Xerte Online Toolkits 1.5 also integrates with the Xpert repository,
allowing content to be easily published to the repository. Other
toolkits users can find your content using xpert, and then download it
for import into their own toolkits installation.
