GLOSSARY FORMAT PLUGINS
|
||
|
|
-----------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Starting with Moodle 1.4, the glossary module supports a plugin
|
||
|
|
architecture to create your own formats. This plugin system allows
|
||
|
|
you to "invent" your own presentations for your glossary data. :-)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To facilitate the creation process a TEMPLATE format has been created.
|
||
|
|
You should use it as the base for your own modifications (this requires
|
||
|
|
some basic PHP skills). The template includes all the available data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please, follow these STEPS:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1.-Think of an English word (or short phrase) to define your format.
|
||
|
|
For further reference in this document, we call it "THENAME".
|
||
|
|
2.-Duplicate the TEMPLATE directory (under mod/glossary/formats/TEMPLATE).
|
||
|
|
3.-Rename it to THENAME
|
||
|
|
4.-Go into the THENAME directory and rename the TEMPLATE_format.php file
|
||
|
|
to THENAME_format.php
|
||
|
|
5.-Edit the THENAME_format.php file. Change every ocurrence of TEMPLATE to
|
||
|
|
THENAME.
|
||
|
|
6.-Login into Moodle. Go to any glossary in your site.
|
||
|
|
7.-Edit (configure) your glossary. In the Format popup you'll see a new
|
||
|
|
entry. It will be showed as "displayformatTHENAME". Select it and view
|
||
|
|
your glossary.
|
||
|
|
8.-Edit the THENAME_format.php. Make your format modifications and reload your
|
||
|
|
web page to see them in your glossary. This file has been commented to make
|
||
|
|
things easier to understand (further suggestions welcome!)
|
||
|
|
9.-If you want to translate your THENAME format name to some nice name to
|
||
|
|
be showed in the Format popup, simply, edit your lang/XX/glossary.php
|
||
|
|
file (where XX is your language) and create a new displayformatTHENAME
|
||
|
|
string.
|
||
|
|
10.-Enjoy!! (and don't forget to send your amazing glossary formats to
|
||
|
|
the Glossary forum on http://moodle.org. They will be welcome!! ;-)
