Enabling these XBlocks

To quickly enable all of these XBlocks, go in Studio to Settings and Advanced Settings and paste the following into the Advanced Modules field at the top of the page as pictured below. Ensure you Save changes once you're done.

Note: We don't recommend enabling every single XBlock on each course you make, these aren't enabled by default for a reason. Once you've tried these out, choose the XBlocks that you need for each course and just enable those, you can always add the others later.
