Configurable Reports for Moodle 2.6 and new features

Hi Juan,

Great new features - I particularly find csv immediately useful (Ability to run a report and upload the results straight into users), as well as the Global reports. (I had about 5 reports previously duplicated across 15 courses, with more requests coming all the time).

 

I have a couple of issues.

  1. I have a report set to run via the CRON, and the settings set to run at 5am each day. However, when I run the report, it runs the queriy new. (I know because it takes a few minutes to run). Unfortunately the documentation on using the CRON reports is not done - so is there a trick to setting it up?
  2. When Java script ordering is on, it appears to put a second heading column over the first one, which is a different size. (As per the below image)

Any ideas on these two?

 

CheersPeter

I have a related question: is it possible to view the previous export of a report in the block without prompting it to run? I have some very time consuming reports that are hanging my server and I'd love to resolve that.

Well, yes, but to download it you need to first view it, and then the report runs and you end up with a 504. Unless there's a way to access a cached report without it running automatically?
