Thanks to didier jodin for finding a nasty bug in Moodle 2.9.0: MDL-50373

If you have quizzes that contain randomly selected Cloze questions, then you really don't want to upgrade to 2.9 until that is fixed. (Hopefully I can get a fix done quickly and that can be included in this week's 2.9.0+ release.)

If you have not yet upgraded to 2.9, or if you do not use randomly selected Cloze questions, then there is nothing for you to worry about.

I am really sorry I introduced this bug.

There are are corporations with effectively unlimited amounts of money who will not even admit to the bugs in their software let alone fix them, so no apologies necessary smiler

Thank you. I mean to post back here once the weekly release came out, but I forgot. Thank you for doing it for me.

Just to confirm, the latest 2.9.0+ release contains the fix for this issue.
