My current moodle version is 3.1+ (Build: 20160603).

When i link moodle mobile app with my moodle site then option to update profile avatar is not shown in moodle mobile app i.e pencil icon is missing.

user profile.


When i link my app with school demo site then option to update profile avatar is available.

 

I have enabled permission from site policies as well as allowed capability for 'authenticated user' and 'student' role. 

User is able to edit his profile and update his avatar from moodle site.

I have downloaded the app from play store.

Please suggest what could be the issue?

Hello Rahul,

to update the profile image, the Moodle site must have the WebService core_user_update_picture. This WebService was introduced in Moodle 3.2. That's why it works in demo site but not in yours (3.1).

However, there is a way to make it work in Moodle 3.1: installing the plugin Moodle Mobile Additional Features.  This plugin is maintained by us (the Moodle Mobile team), and it increases the features of the app without having to update your Moodle site.

Kind regards,

Dani
