import id problem

There seem to be two problems here:

First, our documentation is out of date. We've removed the first item, the term, from the file. So instead of:

"Semester 1","Mark 1"

you want:

"Mark 1"

We'll fix the documentation.

Second, you need the ID of the term, not the title. At the moment the id is not visible in the web interface (this is a bug) except for in the URL.

So if you navigate to the term you should see a URL more or less like this (the name of the year may be different), where the term ID is the last part of the URL:

http://localhost:7080/schoolyears/2006-2008/mark-1

The ID of "Mark 1" is probably "mark-1" unless you explicitly set it otherwise. You need to use the ID, so the final answer is the first line should probably be

"mark-1"

But you should check the URL to make sure that's the actual term ID.

Thanks Tom, that fixed it for me.
