Text & Files

Make text and files available in Moodle.

Text

To avoid problems in Moodle, please paste text without formatting.

On Windows, do this as follows:

  1. Select the text you want to copy, for example, in Word.
  2. After right-clicking on the highlighted area, select "Copy" or copy the text with Ctrl + C.
  3. Then, in Moodle, right-click in the editor and choose "Paste as unformatted text" or paste the text with Ctrl + Shift + V.

Under macOS there is the shortcut: Shift - ALT - CMD - V

Files

There are several ways to upload files to Moodle. The easiest way is by drag & drop:

  1. In edit mode, you can drag & drop the file from a location on your PC/laptop into the desired area in Moodle. For documents, we recommend uploading as a PDF. You can also upload several files at once.


  2. The file will be uploaded and will be available immediately afterwards.

  3. Click on the pencil symbol next to the file name to rename the file. Press the "Enter" key to confirm and save the entry.
    Name is changed

  4. The file can be moved up or down via drag & drop.
