Possibility of rate an Activity

Possibility of rate an Activity

Hi folks,


I am new to moodle as a developer, but have used it for years at my university as a student. So I'm familiar with the fronted, but never seen the backend or code. 

Now I need to develop a solution for rating Activity content.  Is there a way to write a plugin to make that possible, or do I need to extend the Activity-Code to achieve rating an activity with something like stars, or thumbs up/down?


Searching the web for something existing didn't get any results for a plugin or solution like that.

My PHP knowledge is a little rusty, coded years ago with it, but I know some OOP languages very well, so PHP should be no problem. My problem is to understand the moodle architecture to code something like the rating-thing. Never done that before. Would appreciate some help from the community smile


Regards,

Dennis

I would suggest you could start by refactoring the Rate a course block.

If you add the block to a course page, then set it to be available on every page within the course, then it should appear alongside each activity.

Thank you for that quick response. Good plugin to start with, struggled a bit to get it to work on Moodle 3.0, some deprecated methods were used, but now it 'works'.

Hello,

can you share the customized version with the community? I would also like to use the plugin with the version 3.0.
