Hey guys,
Is there an easy way to verify if the student accessed a page I created? This verification should be inside the HTML area of the course's main page. For example, if a specific page was accessed by the student, a text is printed in this HTML area (but only if the student accessed the page before).
Thanks!
Assuming the page you created is a page within Moodle, you could probably write some code that queried the log table and echo some text if the log.action field=view.
But maybe there's an easier way to accomplish your goal. Would it work to create a conditional activity that couldn't be accessed unless a student visited your other page first?

Not for this case...
Unfortunately, my coding skills aren't sufficient to be of much use to you. I had hoped you could just insert a little PHP script into a label, but on further investigation, Moodle doesn't allow that.
So you'd have to write something a little more involved. I did find some information about how to get information from the database to use in your code: http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Data_manipulation_API, but that's as far as I can probably help you. Good luck!
