LeMill Blog

We have released a small update with version 2.4.5. This release contains mostly internal changes that are not visible for end users. These changes are needed for new features in the upcoming 2.5 and better handling of large amounts of content.

We have also changed the way how resources are stored in LeMill database. It means that URL’s in the Content section have changed. Before all the URL’s in the Content section had the same structure: http://lemill.net/content/title. Now the structure of the URL is based on the content type: http://lemill.net/content/type/title.

Some examples of new URL’s:

• http://lemill.net/content/webpages/lemill-faq
• http://lemill.net/content/presentations/learning-resources-and-copyright
• http://lemill.net/content/exercises/british-newspapers-listening-comprehension
• http://lemill.net/content/pilots/1-hobuse-mure-pilot
• http://lemill.net/content/pieces/barnacle-goose
• http://lemill.net/content/references/oer-commons

If you have made links to LeMill content, please find some time to update links in your blog or web page.

This release also introduced some new bugs, but we will do our best to fix them soon. After that we will continue working with LeMill 2.5. In this release we are planning to have a long awaited possibility to upload Powerpoint files as presentations (in the same way as it works in SlideShare) and two new templates (lesson plan and school project).

We wish you all the best for the new school year and hope that you will find LeMill useful in your teaching and learning.
