The Big Stuff You'll Wanna Know

For Authors and Instructors

The module assessment stats dialog now features improved searching and filtration.

Modules copies can now be created in read-only mode. A read-only copy can not be edited, but can be optionally synchronized if the parent module has any updates. This allows users to make copies of modules from the public library in order to view assessment statistics without the risk of that module becoming outdated in the event of the original being updated. Read on to find out more!

For Developers

This release bumps the required version of Node from ^14.16.0 to ^18.16.0. Depending on your development environment and hardware, this may require installing additional packages in order to build dependencies in the case where an existing prebuilt is not available.

New Features

Read-Only Module Copies

Modules can now be copied in read-only mode, allowing users to make module copies that can be synchronized with the originals if there are ever changes. This will allow users to create copies of community modules (for example) and also view assessment statistics for those copies without the risk of their copy becoming outdated in the event that the original module changes.

Making a read-only copy

The process for making a copy of a module has changed a little bit, but it still happens in the same place as before. Rather than making a copy of a module immediately, the 'Copy this module' button now changes to show the two new options. Clicking the 'Normal Copy' button will make a fully editable copy of the module, and clicking the 'Read-Only Copy' button will create a read-only copy of the module.

Checking for updates

Read-only modules can not be edited, but any updates to the original module can be easily synchronized. Just click on the read-only copy in the dashboard and then click the 'Synchronize' button.

sync-button

Clicking the 'Synchronize' button will open the Synchronize Updates dialog window, which will check for updates to the original module. If no changes have been made to the original module, this dialog will indicate that there is nothing that needs doing.

If any updates are found, allow users to synchronize those updates to their copy.
