Such links appearing in the calendar would be!

 

And you can't block every resource/activity with a password.

It came up a couple of times. This is the main discussion, I think: Versioning and Deprecation changes.

 

Edit: Mary, we both won. But why does your name appear before mine?

 

P.S. Did you hear? Moodle 4.5 LTS is out! Why there's no excitement? Maybe, as I heard Linus Torvalds saying, is the "no excitement" the biggest feature?

I missed the list. Indeed it is huge. I have never heard of the majority.

So somebody ran this "enhanced" (proprietary) Moodle for you. You quitted and starting to run it yourself. Your problem is, you have received only a copy of moodledata/ and a database dump - no code!

You done a Site restore by taking the official Moodle core instead and seeing this "Missing in code" notice in the Site administration > Plugins > Plugin overview.

An important column for your table is "Used in our Moodle". If not, you can simply delete that record from the database. But those plug-ins you've used but don't get the code are going to be a blockade. If you had the code, you can delete all the outcomes of those plug-ins and then uninstall the plug-ins. But you don't have the code. You need a deep understanding of the Moodle database to delete them directly.

I think the question would become easier to answer if you turn it around. Ask MoodleRooms or whatever the managed Moodle hosting you were in, what additional plug-ins are included in the package you are using. Of course the Moodle version is important and ideally the versions of all those additional plug-ins.

P.S. I think this is hardly a question for the Moodle developers. It is an Installing and Upgrading question or at most General help.

I think, you haven't got the Moodle way of thinking. On a Moodle site _registration_ and _enrollment_ are two different things. Registration is a site-wide thing, need to be done only once, username and password belong here. Enrollment is entry to courses, you mentioned two, there could be more. Having registered on the site doesn't guarentee the entry to courses, it is an additional step. Knowing the username and password alone are not enough. In the jargon people talk of authentication vs authorization.

 

P.S. If you manage a Moodle site, you might want to take a Moodle administration course in the Moodle Academy.
