If you are interested in Conditional activities, you probably want to view these two screen-casts that give you a sneak preview of what conditional activities in Moodle 2.0 will be like. (The tracker issue is MDL-15499).

I look forward to these features being integrated with Moodle 2.0 and beyond!

Does anyone know if “Conditional activities” will span courses?
In the Commercial training world, levels of training can be conditional and at different levels of cost.
From what I've seen (a newbee here) with Moodle, Enrollment is applied at the course level. And Activity locking is (yeah I know) at the activity level (in a course, of coarse). So if I need to charge a fee for let's say - training course 101, and make that a prerequisite to course 102 (with it's own additional fee) Id have to build that into one course and/or do things externally to pull it off.
I think....... Comments?

I was doing some investigating on this a month or so ago, and my understanding is that conditional activities in Moodle 2 will NOT cover course to course... only within a specific course, which means that, yes, you would "have to build that into one course and/or do things externally to pull it off."

You are right that the conditional activities only apply within a course. However, you need to look at some of the other parts of the Moodle 2.0 roadmap: Roadmap#Improvements_to_the_organisation_of_courses.
Course completion is about maintaining a record of which students have completed which courses, and allowing you to define what exactly a student has to have done to complete a particular course. That will probably use the same conditions as conditional activities. (You have complete this course if you score more than 70% on the final quiz.)
Then, Progress tracking is using information about which courses have been completed to determine which courses students should do next.
While Conditional activities is basically finished, these two items are not done yet. Indeed, Catalyst IT, a Moodle Partner from New Zealand with many commercial clients has just stepped forwards and volunteered to implement these features.

That's excellent... I'm sure there are a few of us that are looking forward to Course Completion and Progress Tracking being implemented!!!
So I think with these two new features above, we can safely assume that Conditional Activities will always be 'within a course only' (as they always have been).

Tim,
This looks really good. I'm so looking forward to not having to completely redo activity locking every-time I update Moodle. In the 2.0 examples I've seen, the check-marks for conditional activities appear all the way on the right of the middle part of the screen. (next to the boxes for collapsing/expanding) In most of the hacks I've been using the check-marks/boxes appear either just to the right of the activity name or on the left between the section numbers and the name. This is the first example I've seen of 2.0, but I'm wondering if there's a reason the check-marks are to the extreme right. If someone was full screen and there were several activities in a row, I would think it might be hard to distinguish which check-mark is associated with which activity.
Sincerely,
Todd

Is there any chance Conditional Activities will be made available back to 1.9.4? Prior to 2.0 release?
Thanks!

Almost certainly not, unless someone does a huge backporting job.

Tim,
I have installed Version 2.0 and there are a couple of Conditional Activities points/suggestions that I am a little confused about (not difficult for me!).
The "Only available from" date is great, but could a time be added. We use our site for formal testing, and so would like to restrict a quiz to only being available say between 1000 and 1100 on 15th Feb. Would this be possible?
I am uncertain as to the progress conditions. To require a quiz grade is good, but how do I prevent a quiz from being taken until a resource has been viewed? I understand that I can require an activity/resource to be marked as complete, but will this prevent progress onto the next item?
For example within a topic I will have 2 resources and a quiz. The quiz can not be viewed, or taken, until the 2 resources/media have been viewed.
Many thanks, Mike

Example: learning paced course. The course is made of a lesson and a test. I would like the test can be done only after 2 days after the lesson is completed. Is it possible? It seems me it isn't.
There is a way to obtain this defining the completion of the lesson (The lesson is marked completed if the vote is > 7 AND if the date is "now + 48 hours")? Or a change in conditional activity is needed?

That sort of condition is not currently possible. The system is designed so it is relatively easy to add new types of condition, I think, but someone would have to go in and add it to the code.
