Developed by the RÉCIT National Service for Distance Learning
The filters available within Moodle detect the presence of embedding codes on a page. The filter interprets the code and displays the desired information on the screen. For example, a youtube link can be detected and turned into an embedded video. The RÉCIT team has developed a filter that allows the integration of several parameters. This filter allows, among other things, the display of the icon of the activity as well as a checkmark that indicates the status of a completed activity. It also allows you to take advantage of the Moodle database and create a more personalized experience. The examples below show you the available integration codes and the result on the user's screen.
Represents the separator character used in the filter. If the character is /, the filter will search for it in [[i/activityname]]. All indicators ( i/, c/, d/ ) must be at the beginning of double brackets [[.
- Activity name link :
[[activityname]]. - Activity name link with icon :
[[i/activityname]]. - Activity name link with completion checkbox :
[[c/activityname]]. - Activity name link with icon and completion checkbox :
[[i/c/activityname]]. - Change link name :
[[/i/c/desc:"Name"/]]activityname. - Add CSS classes :
[[/i/c/class:"btn btn-primary"/]]. - Open the link to an activity in another tab :
[[c/b/activityname]]ou[[i/c/b/activityname]]. - Link to a section:
[[s/sectionname]]or[[s/6]]to go to section 6 if its name is not personalized (not usable in edit mode).. - Course informations :
[[d/course.fullname]],[[d/course.shortname]]. - Student firstname, lastname, email and avatar :
[[d/user.firstname]],[[d/user.lastname]],[[d/user.email]]and[[d/user.picture]]. - First teacher firstname, lastname, email and avatar :
[[d/teacher1.firstname]],[[d/teacher1.lastname]],[[d/teacher1.email]]and[[d/teacher1.picture]]. The teacher must be in the group for his name to appear. Same for teacher2, teacher3, etc. for all teachers for that course. - Link to H5P content:
[[h5p/Name of H5P]]
After installing this plugin, it is necessary to place it before the default Activity linking filter.
The attached example shows the display of a link to an activity. The left side shows the learner's screen. On the right-hand side, we see the integration code in the editor. The i/ parameter displays the activity icon, the c/ parameter displays the hook and the exact name of the activity title displays the link to the activity.
