Hi Graham ~ one scenario I'm noticing where I have to use Django is:

a URL item is added to a course - then if you want to edit it (i.e. if
you later think of an attribute to add) - you can't click on it to get
the screen with: Edit this item / Delete this item / Relocate this
item. When you click on it, you are just taken to the resource, so you
have to use Django.

Yes, you can. There's a small, iconic hyperlink to the right of the
URL's title -- a little gray arrow. Hover over the arrow. The context
menu appears.

It's one of those "once you know it, it's intuitive" features. It
ought to remain discreet, but for that reason it's hard to make
instantly intuitive. Thoughts welcome.

Best,
Graham

Ah Ha! Now I see the grey arrows - once Betty documents their
functionality, everyone will know - as long as they read the
documentation.

Another thing I went to Django for was to Resequence items. I have
since found that I can do it using Relocate at the item level - but -
at the course level, after you drag & drop to resequence, the Save
sequence doesn't save it.
