\label{Domain_Configuration_Course_Defaults} Starting with LON-CAPA 2.10, a Domain Coordinator can configure default settings for courses in the domain. Defaults are of two types: \begin{itemize} \item \textbf{Defaults that can be overridden in an individual course by a Course Coordinator} Currently, there are four domain defaults of this type (which can be overridden using Settings $>$ Course Settings $>$ Display with ``Display of resources'' checked). \begin{itemize} \item Default method to display mathematics expressions included between $<$m$>$ and $<$/m$>$ tags. Starting with LON-CAPA 2.11.3 the default renderer used to display math can be set to one of: \textit{MathJax}, \textit{Convert to Images (mimetex)}, or \textit{TeX to HTML (tth)}. The domain default in effect for a user will be for the domain of the user's current role. However, if a user has selected a renderer from the \textit{Math display settings} in User Preferences that will take precedence over the domain default. Furthermore, if the course setting: \textit{Force use of a specific math rendering engine} has been set, that will take precedence (in course context) over both the user preference and the domain default. If no default renderer has been set, MathJax is used in LON-CAPA 2.12 and later, whereas TeX to HTML (tth) is used in LON-CAPA 2.11 and earlier. \item Student formula entry uses inline preview, not DragMath pop-up For problems that require a formula input via a textbox, the default is to show the math expression in a previewer below the textbox, as the student types. The alternative is to use the older (Java-based) DragMath pop-up which allows the student to compose the expression in a WYSIWYG-style editor in a pop-up window and then save it to the textbox in the main window using a ``Save and Close'' button. \item Molecule editor uses JSME (HTML5) in place of JME (Java) For problems that require the student to ``draw'' an organic structure using a molecule editor, the default is to use the HTML5 version (JSME). The alternative is to use the older (Java-based) JME editor. \item Course requesters who may clone a course (besides course's owner and coordinators) This can be set to no additional requesters, or to any course requester in the domain, or if categories have been defined in the domain for institutional codes for official courses (in localenroll::instcode\_defaults), to categories which must match in new and cloned courses (e.g., department and number). \end{itemize} \item \textbf{Defaults that can be overridden in an individual course by a Domain Coordinator} Currently, there are five domain defaults of this type (which can be overridden via the ``View or modify a course or community'' interface). \begin{itemize} \item responder count - number of responses needed before submissions made to anonymous surveys (with no identifying information) are viewable by Course personnel. \item default course quotas - domain default for quotas (MB) for official, unofficial, community, and textbook course types for content uploaded directly to the course. \item default course credits - whether credits may be specified for courses (Yes/No), if yes: default values for number of credits for official, unofficial and textbook courses. \item submit button behavior post-submission The default is for the ``Submit Answer'' button in the current page to be disabled for 60s following answer submission. After processing a student's answer a new page is displayed. The setting to disable a button, (with or without a timeout), applies to the button in the old page in the time period before the new page is loaded by the browser. \item lifetime of temporary tables (course's homeserver) The default lifetime (since last update) for ``temporary'' MySQL tables containing student performance data is 172800s (i.e., 2 days). A different default lifetime can be set by course type, which will apply to MySQL tables on the course's homeserver only. A reason to do this might be where a domain has created a custom script to export a course's grade data, by running SQL queries against the temporary tables. Note: student performance data are stored permanently in GDBM files; the temporary MySQL tables are simply used to speed up display when a Course Coordinator uses the Assessment Chart or Statistics functions in a course. \end{itemize} \end{itemize}
