Moodle in English: Embed question filter problem

Embed question filter problem

by Javier MP - Monday, February 17, 2020, 10:45 PM

I am trying to use the plugin, I already have the idnumber set, and where the category the question is in has an idnumber. When I want to embed the question, everything is fine, I can choose the category and the questions but the key to embed doesn't work. This works if I choose a ramdon question.

When you say 'No work', what actually happens?

Ok, This is already solved adding a letter before the idnumber question. The problem is that when I add the idquestion it doesn't always work.

Ah! so perhaps there is a bug if the idnumber is all digits. We will investigate.

Thanks very much for reporting, Javier,.

I've been able to replicate this locally ('pure' digit-only IDs don't work) so we'll fix it as soon as we can.

Not spotted our side because we use an asset-numbering system that ensures there's always a mix of alphanumeric characters.

This error appears when I insert Wiris type questions, it is, when I press check button. There isn't any problem with other questions.

Thank you

Please excuse my ignorance, but I don't speak Spanish. Also, with error messages, the exact words of the error matter (so I can search the code to see exactly where the error message is coming from.)

Are you able to generate the same error with the language set to English?

Also, if you can turn on Debugging that would give more technical information about the error.

The error message string is questionidmismatch | core_question:

Question ids mismatch

We has some situations like this, and it turned out to be caused by this sort of scenario:

Create a category and a question with idnumbers embeddable/testq
Embed these somewhere.
Try it to see how it looks.
Change your mind about what sort of question you want.
Removed idnumber testq from the first question, and then create a new question and give it id testq.
Now go back and look at where the question is embedded.

Then you see this error.

There was then the problem that there was no way to escape from this situation.

We have done a fix where in this situation, you should now get a 'continue' button which clears the current attempt and lets you start a new one. That code is currently on github, but has not been released to the plugins DB yet.

I have followed all the steps and installed the github plugin, and once more it is written error. It only happens with Wiris questions, with the rest is ok but with this type of questions the screen goes back again to the error screen . I add the screen shot. Thanks in advance.

The Wiris question types are not properly open source. Therefore, I don't feel much motivation to help with fixing bugs in their code. You will have to contact Wiris support. Sorry.
