question issues

[bird2019]

1. questions can't be deleted
2. the limitation of 3 questions seems no convenience to users.
3. media filter does not work in questions added

I have been able to effectively swap-out a question that I don't want with a question that I do. With only one question already inserted: What I notice when I go to click on to add a question, the display of questions available to select from shows the already-inserted question checked. If I uncheck that question and check a different one, the ADD will effectively swap the unchecked question with the newly checked one; there is still only a total of one question inserted, the newly checked one. This is still not a delete, but maybe a temporary work around.

I don't understand the severity of the issue with a 3-question limitation as you can just add more pages to get the capability of 3 more questions. But at least we are advised of the 3-question limitation! I appreciate that!

Update: Okay, I am thoroughly confused now. Background: The content page already has one question added that shows up in the ANSWER THE QUESTION(S) area below the content. There are a lot of questions in the course's question bank that have IDs (both at the category level and at the question level) which translates a request to "Add new question" to the content page into a long list display of questions managed over a multiple of question list pages. At the top of the question list display I see the warning "Add up to 3 questions per page". The dilemma: I can ABSOLUTELY add more than 3 questions (but only from those questions displayed on the page that I also click on the ADD button) but not all of the questions that I want because the questions I want span more than one of those question list display pages. The ADD effectively ignores the checkbox on any of the other question list display pages. Even if there was a true limit of 3 questions, I do not know how to get the 3 questions that I want because they are displayed on different question list pages. I could possibly get around this by having a shorter list of questions available to select from, but that would require the icontent coding to allow the user to specify a specific question category to choose from (the only way I know of to chunk questions that all have IDs).

So the beauty of using the ANSWER THE QUESTION(S) area is that the student's answers are recorded and gradable, unlike questions embedded in the content area itself (through embedded questions filtering). If I can't get all of the questions I want into the one ANSWER THE QUESTION(S) area I guess I could breakup the content page into smaller content pages to at least get one question per smaller content page. Worst case I guess I could link out to a single-question quiz, so all is not lost.

@bird2019 Regarding 3. you may want to refer to an already-opened issue: "Questions do not get filtered #9" maybe more details can be added there.
