Hi, sorry if this has been discussed before. We are running Moodle 2.5.x.

Just wondering, say, if we have a quiz question (multiple-choice question that allow multiple answers) and originally we set the correct answer to be A, B, and C (total 5 answers A~E). However later we found that the answer D is also correct, but at this point there is already 18 people took this quiz. If we go in and change the correct answer to be A, B, C, and D, would that change the result (score) of the "existing" quiz attempt, and if so, would it also affect the course completion result? Thanks!

Thanks! This is very helpful.


By the way, would this work for Moodle 2.4.x? Also is there any side effect (e.g. teacher can no longer manually enroll external students) if I enable (allow) this permission (moodle/course:enrolreview)? Thanks!

Hi, thanks in advance for helping out...

Just wondering whether there is a site setting (role permissions) that we can hide the "Enrolment methods" and "Permissions" from the "Course administration" menu for teacher role? Is this something that can be done through system admin UI, or this really need some code modifications? Thanks!

Moodle in English -> Hardware and performance -> Deleting course slow??

by Judy Hsu -

Hi, thanks for helping out.

We have a medium sized Moodle instance (about 33510 users, and 420 courses spreading among 25+ different course categories), running Moodle 2.4.7 right now.

I guess I want to learn a little bit more on the technical side about what backend operations are performed when issuing a "course deletion" command. We have experienced very slow performance when deleting a course (which has pre-populated with some course template content). Sometimes the deletion will take 5 to 10 minutes to finish. Is this normal? Is course deletion considered as a database intense activity so it is known to be slow regardless of your hardware or LAMP configuration? Is there anything we can do to speed it up? Thanks a bunch!

Hi Howard, it was a blank page...

I guess I can insert the debugging lines in the config.php and see what would happen. I think I did that, but it was still not showing anything. Any ideas? Thanks!
