Updated the BridgeTask about and BridgeTask Create so that they do not show the conflict

\label{BridgeTask_Create}

There are multiple steps for creating a bridge task and setting the bridge task up so that the students is able to use it. The flow of the bridge task creation process is shown in figure \ref{BT_flowchart}.

There are two ways of creating the bridge task. The first method is to directly edit the XML file being used (See Bridge Task XML Editing \ref{BridgeTask_XML}). The second method is to use the LON-CAPA online edit mode (See Bridge Task Mode Editing \ref{BridgeTask_EditMode}).

Once the bridge task is created and published, the course coordinator must insert the resource in the course's document list (See Setting Up Bridge Task \ref{BridgeTask_SetupResource}). The course coordinator may also create slots to allow for multiple place/time the bridge task may be opened or to allow for multiple separate attempts at the bridgetask (See Using Slots in Bridge Task \ref{BridgeTask_Slot}). As with any resource, the map it is in may use conditionals to control access to the resources based on other information in the course. (For example, the section of a user, the passing of a prior bridgetask, etc.)
