Issues with Slides

OK, so I set up the test/quiz fine for one of our courses, but I am trying to find the best way to display the study materials for the test. I figured a theory lesson with slides was the way to go. I created the first slide, but when I view it, half of the data is cut off (even if I expand it). Can slides only have a certain height? If so, this is problematic to say the least. Also, if a theory lesson has no test questions then why does the lesson show on the home page of the course with the same extra two columns "score" and "total time". It's just theory so this would be confusing for the users to have that next to a theory lesson. Please advise. Thanks, Chris

Anyone have an idea on this?

Hi

Hi

there is no limitation on the length of slides, you can have very long content inside.
Did you place your content in the "normal" field and not the summary ? Could you try to inspect (for example with firebug) the output to see if the missing part of the content is rendered but hidden or not rendered?

Regarding your second question, many users want to have theory lessons as mandatory to validate a course, that's why it appears with a score. The time spent is in any case interesting. For sure if you want to hide it you can very easily do it with a custom code.

No, I'm not editing the summary

Please see the screenshots in this Dropbox link. One shows the edit screen for this slide, another shows that I can see the whole content when I click the view link for just that slide, and the other shows how the content is cut off when I click to "start lesson" from from the home screen of that course: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/0mftui5zoatjdfe/AAAdFL9HemegZW-MACWCY_Toa?dl=0

Thoughts?

Did you take a look at those screenshots? Any idea what is causing this? Thanks.

Hi Innovafire,

Hi Innovafire,

If you go to admin/structure/types/manage/quiz_directions/display you have the display options for the Slides to display. The question field should have the format "default". This format displays the full content of the field. If you set it as "summary or trimmed", the summary will display or a trimmed length where you can choose the trim lenght if there is no summary.

Best regards

Thanks!

Yes, the "teaser" display was set to trimmed. I changed that to "default" and all is well. Thanks. Chris
