Description

At the college I am working with they need to be able to have a course where there are a large number of single file based bitesized tutorials which are Tagged and navigated using keywords.

Planning on achieving this by using the tagging code from the blog stuff and subclassing the file resource type.

Martyn - Good luck with your plugin. When you have some functional code or feel like you are getting close, feel free to upload it here and we begin looking at it and giving you feedback. If you have not already had a look at http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:Guidelines_for_contributed_code it helps to understand the process of how to share code. Let me know if there is anything I can do to be supportive. Peace - Anthony

Current very early version of the Tagged File Resource plugin unzip in mod/resource/type

Need to work out how to reflect the changed tags back to the form for editing an already created resource.

It will also need the display of tags / tags search and tag cloud (there is already something to base it on) resources

Ok realised that reply's to emails sent by this system don't end up back in here (my last bug tracker did, oops)

I am a bit stuck and getting frustrated with the following.

I have started by subclassing the file resource type and have cloned the code from the blog tagging interface. I have successfuly got it so that the tags interface apears and even inputs the data into the tables correctly.

Unfortunately I am having difficulty reflecting that data back to the form for further editing. I can't workout where you would add data to the mforn stuff. Anyone got a clue.

Martyn - Any chance you could create a markup using the add/edit UI Markup tool provided with the Moodle tracker. This will let me then install your code and see what you currently have and then compare that to what you want it to look like. Alternatively, you could take one or more screen shots and mark them up saying I want something like this but with this field or link, etc. I tend to be rather visual so the more I can see it the better I understand it. Peace - Anthony

I basically don't know how to put custom data onto a form the controls are fine I just have no idea how to populate them for editing.

Basically I need to know where to put the equivalent to line 118 -124 of moodle/blog/edit.php

Does that make it clearer ?

Martyn - I am just now beginning to play catch up on issues. Were you able to work past this issue? Did you try posting a question on the General Developer's forum (http://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=55)? Let me know where you stand on this and how I can be of help. Peace - Anthony
