Hello,

anybody knows how to make ORA2 keep file extensions for students submissions. I configured it and it allows me as instructor to download students submissions when grading, but the files are downloaded without extension and I have to guess was it .pdf or .doc by renaming and trying to open with either application. It would be much easier if file extension was preserved when saving submissions.

Hello, 

Same problem here. I configured ORA2 to use filesystem backend storage (https://groups.google.com/d/msg/edx-code/cji-sZq7Mgc/V7NYus3-BgAJ), any solution?

Greetings

you might want to post an issue to the issue tracker for faster response: https://github.com/edx/edx-ora2/issues

this existing issue also sheds some light on some current deficiencies of the file upload capabilities of ORA2: https://github.com/edx/edx-ora2/issues/969
