| Hello. I just went through the 1.6.3 demo and here were some observations..... * Nice job on the social networking component * I didn't see the CAPTCHA on the register page. Maybe it was just disabled for the demo? * Couldn't get the LaTeX to display. I tried: $\displaystyle \frac{x}{4y} = \frac{y}{4z}$, find the value of $3y^4 - 3(xz)^2 + 3$ It didn't show on content pages or test/surveys. * The multi-file uploader in File Manager still doesn't work. Also, I would LOVE to see the following features implemented in the final 1.6.3 release... * A way to annotate images (and even other documents) within ATutor. * Implement the ability to do fill in the blank questions * The ability to close content (similar to how you can have a Test/Survey open for a period of time). Also, the ability to have the content open/close on a recurring schedule. * Allowing the instructor access to the "My Files" area. This would be useful for K-12 implementations.... maybe this could be an option that the admin. could set? Thanks again for your efforts with this project. ATutor has been very useful for me thus far. Posted: 2009-06-15 13:35:35 | ||

| You have to switch the "Enable CAPTCHA" on under admin, i have just done that. LaTex, it has to be wrapped [tex][/tex]. Check the documentation. Posted: 2009-06-15 13:46:28 | ||

| Harris, I see that there is a Captcha area now, but this page did not show the Captcha pic.: www.atutor.ca/atutor/demo163/registration.php?register=Register Yes, the LaTeX does work when wrapped in [tex][/tex] tags. By the way, do you think many (any?) of the things I listed in my "wishlist" could be a part of the final 1.6.3 release? Thanks. Posted: 2009-06-15 17:20:33 | ||

| Apart from bug fixes and minor feature adjustment, we're in a code freeze for 1.6.3. Any new features would need to go in the next release. FYI, you can do fill in the blank with one word open ended questions. Posted: 2009-06-15 17:31:14 | ||

| Greg, Thanks for the info. For fill in the blank, I meant something where it would be corrected automatically like how multiple choice questions are. Any chance that could be a part of 1.6.3? Thanks. Posted: 2009-06-15 18:36:19 | ||

| No new features would make it into 1.6.3. Automarked fill in the blank is fairly complex to create. Posted: 2009-06-16 08:39:09 | ||

| Greg, 1.6.3 Build r8648 is looking good. Just a few things I noticed on a G4 installation (appended): # CAPTCHA's radio button isn't working; # A warning appears on each courses' home page: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in .../ATutor/index.php on line 94; # There is a pseudo randomization of test question/surveys. The first viewing under ..../tools/my_tests.php give the same order as in Manage>Tests&Surveys>Preview. However, if you click the back arrow and then revisit the page the question order is changed. Not sure if it is related but I sometimes get an error when attempting to add questions to an existing test/survey: ....ATutor/include/classes/UrlRewrite/UrlRewrite.class.php on line 87 Best wishes, Ian ATutor Version: (build r8648 - 2009-07-02 15:54:49) Operating System: Darwin 9.7.0 Darwin Kernel Version 9.7.0: Tue Mar 31 22:54:29 PDT 2009; root:xnu- 1228.12.14~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh Web Server: Apache/2.2.11 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.11 OpenSSL/0.9.7l DAV/2 PHP/5.2.8 PHP Version: 5.2.8 MySQL Version: 5.0.67 FireFox Version: 3.0.6 Posted: 2009-07-15 10:45:41 | ||

| Hello, 1. Which CAPTCHA's radio button? 2. It has a warning message when you simply update the system (append). Try a fresh install and it should be fine. 3. I will look into the pseudo randomization.

| Hi, 1. Resolved {Several radio buttons under Administration>System Preferences radio buttons are not working - CAPTCHA, Enable Mail Queue, and Automatically Install New Language Packs Automatically Install New Language Packs (most like a local firewall/network issue but I'm wondering if CAPTCHA couldn't be set on as the default?)} 2. Fresh installation didn't solve the mysql_fetch_assoc()warning 3. Thanks for looking into the question/survey order issue. Regards, Ian Posted: 2009-07-15 12:05:22 | ||

| I'm unable to reproduce this problem. Can you try reinstalling, and if that doesn't work, provide more details so we can reproduce the problem. Posted: 2009-07-23 08:48:36 | ||

| Hi, I need the steps to reproduce this. The code itself seems fine from the error message. Thanks. -Harris
