One student answered all questions but is prohibited from submitting

My first use of the Quiz module, so bear with me smile One student answered all questions but is prohibited from submitting...I think the reason is that it was a time limited quiz and he tried to submit after the time expired. Not sure that this is the reason but it might be.

But now I am in this state and I want to admit his submissions. I can't find anywhere to override or trick the system into allowing submission. 

Thanks for your help!

Hello Pito ,

You can check your quiz settings due to which attempts are not accepted when time expires.

Setting -

When time expires - set this to Open attempts are submitted automatically.


For overriding quiz time for a particular user you can try "User overrides" feature - https://docs.moodle.org/26/en/Quiz_settings#User_overrides

I think we have seen too many forum threads like this.

We should change the default for new Moodle installs. I created MDL-47276 and made a patch. Shout now if you disagree.

Thanks... I tried various things, like upping the number of attempts, giving a month of  extra time, changing the open and close dates and nothing worked. He could only review his entries but never got a chance to submit. I ended up just doing it offline sad
