- Added warning comment
# URL of WeBWorK handler. If WeBWorK is to be on the web server root, use "". Note # that using "" may not work so we suggest sticking with "/webwork2".
- Added comment
$webwork_courses_dir = "/opt/webwork/courses"; #(a typical place to put the course directory
- Added SMTP timeout constant
# Seconds to wait before timing out when connecting to the SMTP server. $mail{smtpTimeout} = 30;
- Limits distribution of feedback (so that for example, it might only go to the TA of that section, not to all TA's
# If this value is true, feedback will only be sent to users with the same # section as the user initiating the feedback. $feedback_by_section = 0;
- Changed url for the main webwork site
$webworkURLs{docs} = "http://webwork.maa.org";
- removed style sheet url -- wasn't working properly anyway
# $webworkURLs{stylesheet} = "$webworkURLs{htdocs}/css/${defaultTheme}.css"; # this is never used -- changing the theme from the config panel # doesn't appear to reset the theme in time? # It's better to refer directly to the .css file in the system.template # <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/math.css"/>
- cosmetic adjustment
################################################################################ # Hardcopy snippets are used in constructing a TeX file for hardcopy output. # They should contain TeX code unless otherwise noted. ################################################################################
- change blankProblem.pg to blankProblem2.pg to get current best practice template for questions.
$webworkFiles{screenSnippets}{blankProblem} = "$webworkDirs{conf}/snippets/blankProblem2.pg";
- added button that enables you to find to all of the subdirectories of the NPL, Rochester, Union, etc. This allows you to manually find a problem in the NPL if you know its path
# subdirectories or links to other directories. The "NPL Directory" button # activated below gives access to all the directories in the National # Problem Library.
Library => "NPL Directory",
- fixed change in coding -- may not change the name of th file at all
$webworkFiles{logs}{transaction} = "$webworkDirs{logs}/${courseName}_transaction.log";
- adjust this permission level for gateway tests to student from ta
view_proctored_tests => "student",
- new permission level for gateway tests
create_new_set_version_when_acting_as_student => undef,
- new: part of the interaction to determine who can see the "path to file" printed when viewing a question. You can set this to 15 if you only want specifically named users to see this "path to file" string.
print_path_to_problem => "professor", # see "Special" PG environment variables
- new: gateway quiz permission level
record_set_version_answers_when_acting_as_student => undef,
- second part of the permission level that determines who will see file paths printed when viewing a question.
$pg{specialPGEnvironmentVars}{PRINT_FILE_NAMES_FOR} = [ "professor", ]; # ie file paths are printed for 'professor' $pg{specialPGEnvironmentVars}{PRINT_FILE_NAMES_PERMISSION_LEVEL} = $userRoles{ $permissionLevels{print_path_to_problem} }; # (file paths are also printed for anyone with this permission or higher)
- new optional modules -- Applet and FlashApplet should be standard now. Chromatic.pm is used by some Northern Arizona U. problems but is not currently distributed with rel-2-4-5
# [qw(SaveFile)], # [qw(Chromatic)], [qw(Applet FlashApplet)],
