Next or back to menu button on the bottom of a page
by Sandra Neubauer - Monday, 22 February 2016, 11:01 AM
 

In several of the showcase courses I see that there are buttons on the bottom of the page that take you back to the main menu.

Is there currently a way to do that using the authoring tool? Or can someone point me to a good workaround?

I saw the QuickNav extension mentioned several times in the forum but it doesn't seem to work with the authoring tool, yet. Can I make it work somehow?

Thank you!

Hi Sandra,

Did you check the plugin page yet? https://www.adaptlearning.org/index.php/plugin-browser/

Thanks for pointing me to that page, John! It's great!

So far I only searched in Git and didn't really trust my searches.

Hi Sandra

In order for a plugin to be Authoring Tool compatible, it needs to have a valid properties.schema.

I will log a ticket to get one done for the quickNav plugin, I'm not sure when we'll be able to get around to doing it though.

They're not too difficult to set up, if you wanted to just make one yourself. If you do, we'd be very grateful if you could share it back with us via a PR or any other method that's convenient and we'll add it in to the repository for others to use.

Thanks, Matt!

I'll have a look if doing a properties schema is something I'm skilled enough for. If I succeed I'll be happy to share.
