Condition for conditional activities is wrong

Hello,

I've not seen a forum for conditional activities, so I post my question here, I hope this is fine.

I'm using Moodle 2.6 and this is my problem:

I have set some hot potatoes exercises. First, I thought it would be good to set the sequence and I establish for each activity as condition to get a score in the previous activity. Later, I thought it was not a good idea and I set it again so that no condition is needed (s. picture 1 teacher's view).

But it seems the conditions I set at the beginning were not completely deleted because when I try to acces to some of these activities, I get the message "You first have to get an score in a previous activity" (s. picture 2).

I think the problem was that I did not think in advance what do I wanted. My first impulse was to delete the exercises and to upload them again. It is not that terrible but of course it is a waste of time because the HotPotatoes have pictures and audio files and I have to upload them one by one.

I would be very thankful for any suggestions to fix this problem, and also a confirmation to my fear: are restriction conditions not "undoable"?

Thanks,

Beatriz.

Hi Beatriz,

Conditional settings are undoable. Please check that everything was set to none and that criteria text boxes are empty.

If you could maybe provide a screenshot of the conditional setting area of the activity in question.

Hello Guillermo,

thanks for the information about the possibility to undo conditional settings, I was not sure.

I have discovered where the problem was, I think it does have to do with the HotPot module. For the HotPot module there is two "access conditions", and I did not notice it and set the conditions in each activity in a different field.

The field Access control restricts the attempts to this activity - it is visible but you cannot attempt it until you get a grade in some established activity. I didn't know it existed.

The field Restrict acces ist the typical field for r "conditional activities", and it limits the access to the activity.

Learning by doing and learning from errors! smile

Regards,

Beatriz.
