Display intro field during online text import

[Copilot]

The intro field ("Kurzbeschreibung") was not visible when importing online text submissions, only appearing post-save. This obscured what content would be imported.

Changes

Added $post->intro initialization in form display data:

// import_moodle_add_file.php, line 232
if ($checkedonlinetext) {
    $post->intro = format_text($checkedonlinetext->onlinetext, $checkedonlinetext->onlineformat);
}

The form structure ($existing->intro) was already set but display values ($post->intro) were missing. Now both title and intro fields are prefilled during creation.

Problem Statement

Current Behavior

When a student exports an assignment submission from Moodle Assignments to Exaport using the "export to portfolio" button, the teacher's feedback files are not included in the export. This results in the loss of valuable feedback that the teacher provided on the assignment.

Desired Behavior

When an assignment submission is exported to Exaport, the system should:

1. Detect if the submission has associated feedback files from the teacher
2. Automatically acquire/retrieve those feedback files during the export process
3. Store the feedback files in the appropriate feedback section of the artifact in Exaport
4. Ensure the feedback is immediately visible and accessible as part of the portfolio artifact

Technical Context

• Source: Moodle core Assignments module (repository: moodle/moodle)
• Target: Exabis ePortfolio (Exaport) plugin (repository: gtn/exaport)
• Export mechanism: Moodle's portfolio export functionality
• Languages: Primarily PHP (85.8% of exaport codebase)

Implementation Requirements

1. Identify where Exaport receives exported assignment submissions from Moodle
2. Extend the import/receive logic to check for feedback files associated with the submission
3. Use Moodle's assignment API to retrieve feedback files (likely from the assignment feedback file area)
4. Store the retrieved feedback files in Exaport's artifact feedback structure
5. Ensure proper permissions and access controls are maintained
6. Handle edge cases:
   • Multiple feedback files
   • No feedback files present
   • Different feedback file types
   • Large files

Expected Outcome

Students will be able to export their assignment submissions to Exaport while preserving all teacher feedback, creating a complete portfolio artifact that includes both the original submission and the feedback received.

No, this does nothing at all
Analyze how the export works before changing the code again.
For example, exaport/lib/portfolio_plugin/lib.php steal_control() gets called by moodle when using the export function
