A new Moodle block has been created allowing the linking of a Moodle course to a Lecturecast section. As Moodle courses act as gateways to associated Lecturecast content the Moodle-to-Lecturecast course link must be set up before course staff and students can access Lecturecast content.: More guidance |

The change in the Course short name is due to the Lecturecast Connector Block. At present, when a Moodle course is mapped to a Lecturecast section, the Moodle Course short name is changed to be the same as the Lecturecast section – and this happens each time you map to a new Lecturecast section. This can be changed back though you will first need to create your mapping, then add a Lecturecast activity to link through to your recordings. After this, you can change your short name back to what it was originally without breaking the link to Lecturecast. If you choose to change the short name back to what it was before, the Lecturecast Connector block will display that ‘no mapping exists’. However as the linking has already been done, following instructions above, the Lecturecast recordings should still display. To change the course short name, do the following on the relevant Moodle course - Settings > Course administration > Edit settings > Course short name> change the name (the name must be unique and must not have any apostrophes). We are aware that this is not ideal and a new version of the Moodle Connector block is in the final stages of testing. The new block will not overwrite the Course short name and will show multiple mappings. |
