Hi Matt

Finally found some time to check out the SAM (SWF_Activity_Module_installer_2010-02-10) on our test Moodle.

Seem to have a problem, I’m afraid. Have we done things right?

The folders were copied to Moodle as per:

swf in .../mod/

amfphp in .../lib/

 

I tried testing with your flashvars_word_search_20090415.swf.

 

The problem is the SWF Parameters/SWF File drop-down menu sticks at ‘Select a Flash application’ and there is no ‘Choose or uploads a file..’ button.
Please see attached screen shot.

I then uploaded the file manually to a folder in the course area and tried again, but with the same result.

Am I missing something?

 

Many thanks for any help at all J

Cathy

Hi all,
 
I've just uploaded a SWF Activity Module preview installer package.
Please see the README.txt file for installation instructions:
 
Download: http://code.google.com/p/swf-activity-module/downloads/list
> SWF_Activity_Module_installer_2010-02-10.zip
 
There's also a simple Flash application that pushes grades into the
grade book:
 
Download: http://code.google.com/p/swf-activity-module/downloads/list
> grade_pusher.swf
 
Please note: This is not the finished version of the module and has
not been thoroughly tested. It is for local development testing.
Please do not install it on a public server.
 
Please report any bugs or problems at: http://code.google.com/p/swf-activity-module/issues/list
 
Good luck!
 
Matt

Hi Cathy,

Thanks for reporting this. Bugs and problems like this really should
go in the issue tracker here: http://code.google.com/p/swf-activity-module/issues/list

I think you have an older version of the module where I forgot to
change a couple of lines back in the /mod/swf/mod_form.swf file. If
you download the latest version you should get the file picker
instead. For the record, you can switch between the file picker and
the drop down list by changing these lines, which are currently at
lines 101 and 102 of /mod/swf/mod_form.php:

$mform->addElement('choosecoursefile', 'swfurl', get_string('swfurl',
'swf'), array('courseid'=>$COURSE->id)); // uncomment for file picker
//$mform->addElement('select', 'swfurl', get_string('swfurl', 'swf'),
swf_get_swfs($COURSE->id)); // uncomment for drop down list

I've also documented how to change it here:
http://code.google.com/p/swf-activity-module/wiki/CustomiseModuleInstanceForm

I've included this option because in some cases, users may not want to
upload Flash applications when creating a SWF Activity Module instance
and selecting them from a drop down list is quicker and easier. You
can also do the same for XML files.

I hope this helps! :)

Matt

BTW, the XML word search here: http://code.google.com/p/swf-activity-module/downloads/list
reports back to Moodle's grade book if you're interested.
