We are in the process of installing Mahara, but several questions have already surfaced from the field and after pouring over everything I can find (User Guides, Quick Reference Guides, Tutorials, etc.) I can't find anything that tells me the answers to these questions:
1. Is there a limit on the amount of text you can place in any field, but especially the "Body" fields? Is there a word or character limit?
2. When uploading documents, what file formats are allowed? A list would be most helpful.
3. The Profile page has a spot for Student ID#, but I can't seem to do a search and locate someone based on their ID. Is it possible to search on this field? If not, which fields are searchable? Just the "tags" field?
4. Can a teacher prevent students from changing their passwords?
5. We already use Moodle have a Moodle server and many teachers all over our state (California) have Moodle accounts and they use them with their students. Other schools are now interested in ePortfolios, so we will also be the central server for schools all over the state to have accounts. They are wondering how the teachers will be able to search for their students once the students have created accounts. Can each school or each teacher have their own student groups?
Thanks again for your responses. Linda
