Hi Carl

The function if I remember correctly is as with adding/removing questions to/from quizzes: when there are existing attempts it is not allowed to change the SEB settings.
So you have to remove the attempts, then you can set the SEB settings to whatever you want.

Best,
Luca

per Carl Brewer,
Thank you, Luca. It's important to us to keep our history of results for these quizzes. If I remove the attempts, we lose that? I'm honestly struggling to see why this can't be "just done". It seems odd that Moodle software is enforcing a policy. It should have a recommendation, and the ability to override it. I could just go and edit the SQL database .. but may make a mess in the process!
