- Bug Reports: http://www.ilias.de/mantis (Choose project "ILIAS plugins" and filter by category "External Content")
When you download the Plugin as ZIP file from GitHub, please rename the extracted directory to ExternalContent (remove the branch suffix, e.g. -master).
- Copy the ExternalContent directory to your ILIAS installation at the followin path (create subdirectories, if neccessary): Customizing/global/plugins/Services/Repository/RepositoryObject
- Go to Administration > Plugins
- Choose action "Update" for the ExternalContent plugin
- Choose action "Activate" for the ExternalContent plugin
If you want to use the LTI outcome service with PHP-FPM behind an Apache web server, please add the following configuration to your virtual host or directory configuration in Apache:
SetEnvIfNoCase ^Authorization$ "(.+)" HTTP_AUTHORIZATION=$1
See Manual for details.
You may also try the PCExternalContent plugin to embed contents with the ILIAS page editor.
If you update your plugin to ILIAS 8, you should change the XML of your LTI type definitions to get rid if the jQuery dependencies.
See here, how this is done in the included type models: https://github.com/ilifau/ExternalContent/commit/9d21b2bb64be2c5020262cfaf1df9d53364fc89f#diff-cec2d9d3b80db0ab89abc4421b6ff87838bb346e2888d8a60a431eb3280b47a0
