Problem with activity restrictions and manually marking an item complete

Problem with activity restrictions and manually marking an item complete

We recently upgraded to 3.7.1 from 3.6.4.  We are seeing a few issues.  This is the first I wanted to ask about (forgive me I'm a big green with the latest on Moodle).

We have two activities (pages).  Page A is setup to manually mark it complete.  Page B is setup to restrict access until Page A is marked complete.  Upon marking Page A complete, page B still shows restricted until I refresh the browser window.

I set this same scenario up in the Mount Orange Moodle sandbox and the page refreshes almost immediately upon marking the item complete manually.

Hoping I'm missing some obvious setting.  Can someone point me in a general direction of things to check first, second, third?  

One thing I did find was that Server Checks (Site Admin > Server > Environment) is recommending change the PHP setting opcache.enable.  Seems logical, but thought I'd check with more experienced users.

Thanks in advance.

I would have thought that behaviour is to be expected. Moodle hasn't quite caught up with the trend towards "single page application" all driven by Javascript. Completion is handled by a cron process and, yes, you would need to refresh the page to see the change. There may even be a delay before that comes good too.

It's a good idea to set opcache.enable for performance reasons. Nothing to do with your original question.

Interesting thing is that when I use the Mount Orange Demo site, the behavior is that the next activity opens up automatically with no page refresh. So must be some javascript in there somewhere or a plug-in handling it.

I've never seen it, so I can't comment. Seems strange it's different, though.
