Martin has the new "Manager" role in Moodle 2.0 He doesn't appear or participate in courses but can edit and manage them. He's a bit like the old Category admin. He's been given charge of our Moodle front page and would like to add a link to a pdf with a summary of what's new in Moodle 2.0.
- He turns on the editing on the front page , types text into the HTML editor, highlights the words he will link to, and clicks on the link icon, as shown in the following screenshot:
- This brings up a popup asking him to insert a URL. However, clicking on the box to the right of the URL prompt (1) will take him back to the File Picker (2) that we met earlier:
- When Martin clicks Upload this file… , the browse bar we saw before appears with the extra options to name an author, set a license, and, finally, upload:
- Moodle then goes back to the first screen where the URL box is filled with the address of the file and other options such as the target window and the link title.
- Clicking Insert will add it as a text link in the HTML editor of our front on our front page.
So what's so different about that? Although there are a few visual differences in the popup we get—and there are tabs offering more options—uploading a file using the link icon in the HTML editor doesn't seem that challenging a task. But—where exactly did it get uploaded to?
