[Patrick Lockley]

The option also exists for some one to write in the functionality that isn't there :)

There isn't a built in way to do this but if you're careful it can be done offline...

Export the two LO's and extract the zips
Copy and paste the page xml from one to the bottom of the other (obviously minus the top and bottom bits)
Copy the media files from one to the other
Zip up and import back
Edit and re-order the pages accordingly.

If it's only a few pages to merge possibly easier to edit both lo's at the same time in two different browsers and copy and paste etc.

Subject: [Xerte] merging LOs

Hi

I've had an email from a group of staff/students that are building a number of LOs using toolkits. They asked me how easy (and what the process is) to join the content of the LOs together (e.g. amalgamating say 2 learning objects into 1).

Is there a quick way to do this or is it a case of copying content across manually?

Any wisdom well received, Adam
