Bizarre Grader Report Behavior with Editing *Off*

Bizarre Grader Report Behavior with Editing *Off*

Hi, Folks.

We are running Moodle 4.1.5 in a hosted environment.

I discovered something really odd when I logged in under a faculty member's account.

When I go to the Grader report logged in as that user (in one of her courses), I can actually click on a cell in the Grader report, and Moodle allows me to edit the cell, even when Gradebook editing is *off*. 

There is no button to save those changes, but Moodle actually accepts the change that I type in.  (I did this in a backup copy of one of her courses, so as not to mess up the actual course).  I clicked in the cell in the Grader report for a quiz grade, and the value I typed in became an override grade, even though editing for the Grader report was off. 

When I go to the same course using my Administrator account (logged in as me), I do *not* have that capability.

Is there something strange about that user's Gradebook settings, to allow editing in the Grader report even if editing is turned off?  That makes absolutely no sense to me.

Hi Leslie,

It sounds as though your colleague has set 'Enable AJAX' to Yes in their Grader report preferences (as illustrated in the screenshot below). This behaviour is indeed strange and has been removed in Moodle 4.2 onwards.

Hi Helen! Sorry to bother you with a random, late reply, but I can't find any note of the "Enable AJAX" field being removed in Moodle 4.2's changelog or notes. Do you know where that change was documented? We're moving from 4.1 to 4.3 soon and have no expectation regarding this, but it's highly used by our faculty and we need to prepare for the change if it's coming.
