If you want to upgrade and can wait a couple of weeks, 2.1 will be ready... there are a number of files working theeir way into the build, including the new look and feel for the workspace interface, which is really nice

Hi
That mailing list thread you found is obviously very old and very out of date. There isn't any problem with the Moodle authentication integration and when you say problems with importing and previewing or editing suggests you mean xerte rather than Moodle?
As Julian suggests we need more specific detail and I would suggest itemising each issue as there may be different cause/solution for each.
I would also suggest updating to the latest code as there have been many tweaks and additions even since the summer.

Hi Julian
That was quick! Basically, the installation seems unstable - I've had specific problems with importing LOs and also sometimes LO will not preview or allow editing. I could sort out a list of the problems later this week if this would help.

What sort of problems have you had? We could do with something a bit more specific to go on…

Dear Xerte users
The Land Based Colleges National Consortium has been using Xerte Online Toolkits for more than a year now. Over the summer we took the plunge and upgraded to XOT V2.0 - and since then we have had no end of trouble. The IT specialist responsible for our Moodle-based website http://www.lbcnc.org.uk/moodle/ has pointed out to me that we are still running quite an old version of Moodle (1.9 I think). Using Google I've come across a discussion thread http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/pipermail/xerte-dev/2012-December/003211.html which seems to suggest that we should upgrade to Moodle 2.x. Have others run into similar problems?
