I recently had to fix an installation of Moodle 1.9. The Choices activity provides a question and a set of answers to select from for the students. Unfortunately, version 1.9 was available in Fantastico and the options were not showing in any of the Choices activities. There is a new version of Moodle available, which it may be fixed, but for this version, the file mod/choice/lib.php must be modified to get it working. There is a line like this:
if (isset($text) && isset($allresponses[$optionid])) {
This line must be changed to this:
if (isset($text)) {
I’m sure this is probably fixed in the new versions, but for people who use Fantastico through Bluehost, this must be done for Choices to work.
I found a new flash interface for videos and pictures that I decided to integrate with the gallery and eventually for videos we post. It is currently implemented on the home page, showing the latest uploads to the photo gallery. I also plan on using an alternate version for showing images of projects in the blog. Like this:
If you want to view the full-size pictures, you can click on the right arrow beside the picture names, but your pop-up blocker must be disabled for this website.
We now have a new section on the main page for geek movies. Soon, I will try to expand this section for more information and a section to comment about the movies.
I am glad to say that the website is finally getting a needed update. There is a lot more content and it is becoming more organized. Keep watching for more changes. Current changes include:
I recently re-evaluated the logo for the website. It seemed to be unfocused and too large, so I have now recreated the logo to be more compact. It displays better on smaller screens and the text is easier to read.
