Does anyone know how to delete an artifact from the Moodle portfolio? If a student adds a file and then later changes his mind about wanting it to be included, how would he delete it form the portfolio?
Thanks, Maureen
Hi Maureen,
Which portfolio system/method are you talking about? Can you just describe more about what you're doing?

Hi Matt,
I just looked at it again and found it to be fairly simple. I'm talking about when I'm logged in as a student and want to delete an artifact that I no longer think is "portfolio worthy". Last week, I couldn't do it and then we upgraded so I'm not sure if that made the difference or if it was just me, but it's no longer a problem.
I think it's possible for a teacher to 'Lock" files so a student can't delete unless the teacher has given permission ( a good idea) but I'm still playing around with this. Thanks for your response.

I'm glad you got it figured out, and at least the upgrade seems not to have broken anything. 
Good luck!
Good luck!
Hi Maureen,
When I use the student account to create a 2 new portfolio call demo109 and demo110, I found that i could not delete any of the portfolio. I relogin as admin and also cannot delete.
Do you also have the same problem?

if (!$this->portfolio_heap->locked) {
filter_debug("$routine: error: cannot delete locked heap", $this->portfolio_heap);
return false;
}
Anybody see anything suspicious there?
Actually, delete_self_db() had the same logic error. Ai ai ai ai.
The fix is in CVS.
How to get the fix:
filter_debug("$routine: error: cannot delete locked heap", $this->portfolio_heap);
return false;
}

How to get the fix:
- Download http://download.moodle.org/patches/portfolio.zip (to be sure you're getting the fix, you can check portfolio/version.php and it should be 2007032900). (Yeah, I know. This file is computationally useless and I should switch to a single version.txt file for the whole system...)
- The only file that has changed is portfolio/portfolio_heap.class.php, so you can just grab it out of the .zip archive and copy it into place.
Hi Matt,
I managed to download the latest portfolio patch.
I can delete the artifacts now, but i still could not delete the portfolio.
Any idea whats wrong?
