@5am_gitlab if   is an issue try this

<p><span class="fa fa-clock">‎</span> Some Instruction text here</p>

You would need to copy paste the whole p tag above as there is a blank character which is not visible between span

Anuj Gautam

@anujgtm

This hidden character fulfill the purpose of content between tags and won't clear it.

Thank you for the answer!

Does someone has any good sources on how to update certain plugins to the latest version? (e.g. I would love to use this plugin: https://github.com/gowithfloat/adapt-course-progress) however it is not compatible with version 5.7.1. – any suggestions on the best approach how to deal with this?

Anuj Gautam

@anujgtm

@Chris-Sche Just did a quick fix for you to have it working with v5.7.1. Few less styles were missing as they are being referenced from older version of frameworks. Grab it from https://github.com/anujgtm/adapt-course-progress
Add some styles to the theme css files as per your liking

@Chris-Sche

@anujgtm awesome, thank you soo soo much!!

Hi there. Anyone know if I can change the default port number from 5000 to something else?

@tomgreenfield

the server admin can: https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt_authoring/wiki/Configuring-the-Authoring-Tool#server-options

Has anyone experienced an issue with the video component, where if you let the video play all the way through without scrubbing it returns to the first frame as intended. But if you scrub the timeline at all it stops on the last frame?

Anuj Gautam

@anujgtm

@DDincBrent this is because of below code in mediaelements library which does video playback

slider.bind('focus', function (e) {
    player.options.autoRewind = false;
});

After scrubbing if you click somewhere else (may be on the page itself outside video) autoRewind is set back to true and video will rewind.

Anuj Gautam

@anujgtm

In Authoring tool there is no option to override this value unless you have access to the code

Hi, I'm not a developer just a designer... I have been testing the tool and I want to send the course test to a client, how can I send or share?

John Niezen

@johnniezen

send published zip file, install WebServer for Chrome, start webserver, unzip in location and use Firefox or Chrome to navigate to folder, run course

@Aridesign05 you need to set some items in the webserver plugin, but it is very well and self guiding

Aridesign05

@Aridesign05

@johnniezen thanks, thats was heplfull

@johnniezen

I am just repeating what this great group has provided me on an earlier instance. Before some updates on FireFox and Chrome, you could use the file:///........ option to view your course, that has been blocked so this great tip from the developers here has helped me very well. I can now share my modules with non-IT savvy folks, and they can present the training.

And I also use a Google Translate extension, so my team can view it in their local language

On Adapt Authoring, I'm currently working on a Print CSS so I can save each modules as PDF by "Printing" the page to create storyboards. The hardest part is to constraint each component to show the content regardless of the original defined layout and so the content isn't cut in half between each pages on the PDF.

I was wondering if this was already made or if someone knew if there is a way to export the course to a WordDoc/PDF?

@simondate

@fatcatz_gitlab this might help - https://github.com/cgkineo/adapt2html

Also @chucklorenz may be able to help you too as he has made some work to convert PDFs to Adapt courses - https://community.adaptlearning.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=3920

Sam Howell

@5am_gitlab

@anujgtm Thanks for the tip. I have this sorted now.

Misha

@fatcatz_gitlab

@simondate Ah yes I've tried that one and it's nice how it convert all jsons to html, but there are some info missing when converting and I have to re-style everything, which seem more work :/ I'm almost done my Print CSS though, just trying to figure out how to bring the feedback/pop-ups down where you've brought them up originally instead of having them stay at the top of the page.

Simon Date

@simondate

@fatcatz_gitlab At my previous role at King's College we create a print page extension - https://github.com/KingsOnline/adapt-printPage . You could use the printPage.less file there if it helps. Bear in mind that it was built for v4 of the FW not v5.

Happy Friday everyone! I think, previously I have seen a cool question component, where answers are clickable hotspots on the image. Like a "hotgraphic component" reworked to be a question component... Is anyone aware of something similar... can't find anything? Or was I dreaming? :) Thank you a lot!

Misha

@fatcatz_gitlab

@simondate Ah nice! It would of helped a while ago, but I've styled all components now. I'm still stuck not being able to show the quiz feedback pop-up. I make them appear but they stick at the top of the page. Not sure what to do in css to bring them down where they've been clicked first

Anuj Gautam

@anujgtm

@elearningdifferently I reckon that would be adapt-ppq component you are referring to. Not sure about its compatibility with authoring tool.

Here's the link https://github.com/cgkineo/adapt-ppq

Matthew Terentjevs

@elearningdifferently

@anujgtm here is the one! Thank you, Anuj... I will give it a go. Looks like is has properties.schema for AT. But I should be able to update it if required...

@fkcailiniyazi

Hi All,
I am trying to know in which file from AT the scorm package will be generated? Any idea?

Maybe I should ask the question like this: How a SCORM-Package will be generated?

tomgreenfield

@tomgreenfield

the authoring tool doesn't do anything different to the framework

if the spoor plugin has been included then the required files get copied into the build

https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt_framework/blob/f93c1739b7bb9ef2358a1d8de742d11762962e01/grunt/config/copy.js#L220-L234

@5am_gitlab

Are there any common/known issues (or config errors/mistakes) when trying to play YouTube videos via the Media component in iOS 14 (on an iPad)?

lndaviesn

@lndaviesn

could some one explain how i check what version of adapt framework i am running with the authoring tool?

Sam Howell

@5am_gitlab

Go to console when previewing a course, view the DOM and there's a data-adapt-framework-version attribute in the HTML tag

lndaviesn

@lndaviesn

Thanks @5am_gitlab

tomgreenfield

@tomgreenfield

it should also be in the authoring tool dom itself

I am working on some customizations in Adapt Authoring. I need to add a custom object in course.json which will have 3 values i.e. subject, batch and year. As these meta information are for a course, I believe they should go to course.json. Below is my understanding:

Scaffold module which is a wrapper around Backbone forms is used to render form elements
There are 4 types of schema and all schema is stored in SchemaModel at the initial load of application
I am able to debug backend and frontend and have got an idea of different modules which play a role in rendering the UI using Scaffold/Backbone forms, but I don't know how can I add another object which will have meta information about the course in course.json. I see there is model.schema in plugins/content/course but how I can I load my modifications in mongodb? Also advice if this is the right approach to solve this.
Below is a sample meta info object:
```
_metainfo: {
subject: "English",
batch: "Mid summer",
year: "2020"
}
```

tomgreenfield

@tomgreenfield

you'd need to modify the underlying framework if you really need it as a standard course attribute: https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt_framework/blob/master/src/core/schema/course.model.schema

it'd be safer to write a plugin

Chetan Sachdev

@cksachdev

@tomgreenfield My understanding is when you node install script asks for the details and fetches the framework from git repo and it is stored in temp directory followed by a unique tenant id. Are you saying that course.model.schema is copied from framework and then used in Adapt Authoring? Could you please point me to the modules which have this logic and how I can force Adapt Authoring to take updated course schema?

@sans535

Can any expert help with the below issue? -
I have uploaded a course on LMS (Oracle HCM) but getting ‘Unable to load the course/config.json’ (500 Internal Server Error server) when launched

https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt_authoring/blob/bed716953161dad2ba0d2a076725eb31f25b983c/lib/contentmanager.js#L89

but you shouldn't try to overwrite the framework schema – instead should write a plugin and add attributes as part of that schema e.g. resources plugin

Matt Leathes

@moloko

@sans535 check your server supports JSON files?

I have one question regarding asset management.
When we upload an asset - the file is saved under the assets folder, and also record is created in mongodb.

But when we upload same file second time, only the record is created in mongodb.

So this means two records point in the same asset file.

Is this a bug or this thing was done intentionally for some reason?

FKC - Ailiniyazi

@fkcailiniyazi

It is not a bug, since the name of the file and related folder comes from hash, so if we upload the same file multiple times we will always get the same name
