> it is a kind of general issue as Ghostscript is not said to be required in all the checks before installation or upgrade

That is the idea:
a) As in my previous post Ghostscript is not a must, there are alternatives.

b) Moodle will "run" without any of them, but obviously will not convert documents, for example for annotating. See the link in my previous post.

Moodle in English -> General developer forum -> login page form disable -> Re: login page form disable [SOLVED]

You mean, when you unset 'loginshowloginform' in Trema users can't log in? That is not very friendly. wink

I checked. The front end warns, "Before disabling the login form, ensure that administrators have an alternate method to Sign in to the site"!

P.S. There is not a General developer issue, better suited for the Themes forum.

Moodle in English -> General help -> Ip address -> Re: Ip address

If your server IP address is in the range 192.168.76.x and 192.168.76.254 is its gateway router, then that is how the routing is set up.

This is a networking question rather than a Moodle question. Moodle is faithfully logging what the web server says where the requests a are coming from.
