To insert into your module a question page using an existing question
- Log in to the editor using IE as your browser (I discovered when talking to Scott that the Ed link used below doesn't work in Mozilla).
- Go to EDIT then PAGE LIST on the menu bar at the top.
- Choose the subtopic name appearing at the top left in the header of this page from the dropdown list at the left in the editor form.
Show/Hide even more detail about the page list form. - The top green row is for adding new pages.
- The type of page added depends on the drop down at the left. Question is the default.
- PSeq defaults to adding at the end of the current page list. You can change it to a lower number to insert a question in an existing list.
- To delete a question page that you own from an existing list, tick the check box in the most left column and click on the Del link that is next to the SAVE button. Note that this does not delete the question, only the link to the question.
- The SAVE button saves changes that you have made to the fields for existing questions. Alternately you can place your cursor in any of the fields and hit Enter.
- Select the category of the questions that you want to use from the dropdown at the top right of the page list form.
- Choose Set from under the Question ID box in the green Add Question row. This allows you to see and select from the set of questions available in that category.
Show/Hide detail about the window that appears. - This shows all questions in the category selected. To see questions that you own, select yourself as owner. You may use questions that you don't own, but you can't edit them UNLESS you copy them to a new question with a new ID. This new question will have to be inserted using the page list form.
- In the Select Question window that appears, clicking on the text of the question or on the edit link for any question puts its ID in the green Add row on the page list form.
- Be sure that the other settings in the Add row are right.
- Question is selected in the PageStyle dropdown.
- PSeq is the number of the page on which you want the question to appear. If you want the question to appear on a screen page with another question, use the same PSeq for both questions and a different PSeq2 (1 and 2, for example)
- Choose Add from the end of the row in the green add row bar.
More detail - This adds the question. The revised PageList will show only questions you own. To display all pages, change the Page List owner dropdown to the blank line at the top and then press Go.
- Use the Edit button at the end of the row to change the Page Style of an existing page. This is useful if you had the wrong PageStyle selected when you added the qeustion.
- The Comments button shows any comments that users have entered for that page.
- Choose View from the end of the new page row OR reload the module in BestChoice student version and go to the appropriate page using the page dropdown.
