Assignments
- 7-2-08 nw sak-8589 - there are still problems downloading/uploading assignments/attachments/comments/etc. the upload page has a number of checkboxes which don't reflect reality, as even if you check them the appropriate data is not being imported. plus, in my testing, submissions had attachments which weren't downloaded. I seem to remember this being the case as there were problems with the upload. so if the function has been disabled the checkbox should be removed. additionally, if there were submissions, I got an error window that said "there is already a file with the same name you specified. specify a different name...submission attachments" the same number of times as there were attachments. I added comments to the feedback.txt file which were not uploaded. and there's still the problem w/uploading grades.csv and the grades, status don't reflect the changes. I couldn't figure out how to attach IOR feedback attachments from the downloaded files...but didn't spend forever trying to do it. you need to use Word or HTML editor to add comments to the students' FCK submissions, but you lose images. I think a plain text editor won't work well. maybe faculty already know this?
I think a lot of these problems are also in 2.4, so to me they haven't been corrected. I'd also remove the non-functional checkboxes from the import page.
