At U.Va. I encountered a problem in which imported eTap polls that are specified in the fiule to be released to "Anonymous Users" do not have that value set automatically in the unpublished assessment resulting from the import. I traced the problem to several lines of code in AuthoringHelper (~726):

String siteTitle = SiteService.getSite(ToolManager.getCurrentPlacement().getContext()).getTitle();
if(siteTitle != null && !siteTitle.equals(assessment.getAssessmentAccessControl().getReleaseTo())){
assessment.getAssessmentAccessControl().setReleaseTo(siteTitle);
}

In this case releasedTo is subsequently used to set the "Assessment released to" pulldown on the settings page. Since this pulldown
can only have one of three values, "Anonymous Users", "Entire Site", or "Selected Users", setting it to the Site Title effectivly causes the
pulldown to always be pre-set to the first value, "Entire Site".

I commented out this code, and it resolved the problem mentioned above. With the code still commented, following the steps to reproduce mentioned in I exported another quiz, and re-imported it to another site. I noted that the imported quiz, when published, was available to students on the site as it should be.

So, I'm wondering what the purpose of this change is. It appears, from my own testing, that the problem mentioned in does not rear its ugly head with or without the patch contained in SAM-1350. And with those lines of code in play, a regression appears related to import of eTap polls.

Using the provided steps to reproduce, I can not duplicate the behavior on trunk.

Thanks Kevin.

Trunk commit r130191.

per 2.10 patch review meeting, proceed with commit. Taken by Sam O.

I attached a patch that checks the released to value and sets it to the title of the destination site if they do not match.
