Minor update - December

New features:

  • Mobile App Plugin: Our plugin for the Moodle app/Branded Moodle app/Moodle Workplace app will be available from this release. Note that the app integration must be enabled by a Moodle system administrator as well as by ReadSpeaker. Contact our support team for more information.
  • Statistics: The plugin can now be configured to automatically save the course, section name, and page title, which will then show up in the usage stats in the ReadSpeaker customer portal. This is only available in the desktop plugin.
  • Translation Source Language: It is now possible to configure the plugin to detect the source language based on the page that the content is on, or the language set in webReader. This is only available in the desktop plugin. (Note: Requires webReader update 3.8.7)
  • Close the Floating Player: When the webReader player is launched from a sidebar block, it detaches and floats on top of the page. Before this update, there was no way to close the player, but we have now added a close button to it. This is only available in the desktop plugin.

Fixes and improvements:

  • Argentinian Voice Added: The Argentinian voice Alba has been added to the plugin for both desktop and the mobile app.

  • PHP warning changes: Fixed an issue where PHP warnings were appearing in some PHP versions.
