Hi,
Trying to publish a block for my company, Panopto, however it looks like a "block_panopto" already exists in the plugins database.
When I try to search for block_panopto nothing comes up and no one in my company knows if we attempted to publish an earlier version of our block before.
Is there any way to check if an unpublished block_panopto got submitted to moodle by my company, and if so to update it to this new version and resubmit for review?
I also have an Atto and TinyMCE set of plugins to add buttons to this, however I will worry about that after this is cleared up.
Thanks
Joe Malmsten
Another plugin with the same frankenstyle component name already exists
Re: Another plugin with the same frankenstyle component name already exists
I can confirm the block https://github.com/Panopto/Moodle-2.0-plugin-for-Panopto was submitted to the Plugins directory a year ago (26 November 2015) by someone called Azani Arshad. The plugin was marked as needing more work for complete lack of additonal information (description, useful links etc). We never heard back from Azani.
If that was a mistake or unauthorised submission, we can remove that one and let you submit the block.
Re: Another plugin with the same frankenstyle component name already exists
That would be perfect, I did a lot of work on the plug in, getting ready to submit it for another review.
Re: Another plugin with the same frankenstyle component name already exists
Right. So is this Azani Arshad some colleague of you or something?
Re: Another plugin with the same frankenstyle component name already exists
If it's ok we can proceed without him, if you need anything from him I can email him.
Re: Another plugin with the same frankenstyle component name already exists
OK. As I said, the plugin submission was effectively empty - probably just an experiment. The component name should be available now. Please feel free to submit the block now under your account.
Please be warned, there is quite a long approval queue now and you are likely to wait a while before we get to reviewing your plugin. Thanks for understanding.
Re: Another plugin with the same frankenstyle component name already exists
Perfect, was able to submit everything for review. The time is takes is understandable, here are the links to the 3 plug ins I added:
https://moodle.org/plugins/block_panopto
https://moodle.org/plugins/tinymce_panoptobutton
https://moodle.org/plugins/atto_panoptobutton
Not needed her but I wanted to paste them for a reference.
Thanks for all the help, if anything is needed in the future review contact me,
