Hello, I've had numerous people as about making it possible to lose items (or objects). I'm looking into an idea on how this might be possible. It might be limited in some situations. It's not a quick feature to implement so it might be a while before this is possible (if at all).

Another common question is "Can I turn off the trade center?" Yes, you can turn on editing for the course and go to the settings to the stash block and disable trading.

First, I am a huge fan of this plugin. At Oxford-english-masters.com We use it course-wide, and it is an essential feature now of our interactive novels where students pick up stash items with codewords in their descriptions - together with the typing answer type in lessons, they have to enter this code to 'use' the item and progress, and, in some cases, trade it for another item with a code. It is also useful to track characters, locations and even ideas and themes through a series of collectible badges. So, a big thank you to Frederic and Adrian! You guys rock! Now to my request... there are sometimes issues with the re-readability of the inovels, as, unless traded away, readers always have the same items. Some of this can be dealt with by making items only reappear after a certain time (that function you already have). But it would be great to, yes lose items (I see above people have requested) but also for the user to be able to reset their stash and lose all their items at once (for example if they want to play the game again) and/or have a recycling bin function so they can throw away some items. A simple fix would actually be if the trade function could have a chooseable and/or function i.e. you can get an item traded in return for ALL of the listed items, or just SOME of them - that way I could set up the trade so they get say badges or coins (or even just trash logos) in return for any items they don't want - which would allow me to set up a bin using the trade snippet. As it is, this won't work well as I would have to set up a bin trade for each separate item (and I have a lot of them!). Food for thought and keep up the amazing work!

By the way - just to give you an example of how we are using your plugin in cool ways - in our Dracula iNovel, Dracula sucks blood from various victims and gets 'blood drop points' which can be used to purchase various vampiric powers! At other sections, the vampire hunters gain various vampire-hunting equipment - stash items with codes - to take Dracula down, and the codes unlock combat options later. In other novels, stash items open up new solutions to problems, hidden sections to stories and easter eggs!

Thank you for the kind word of encouragement Matt. I'll think on your idea after I finish my current project which is the removal of items to access the quiz. To everyone here using stash, what other activities would be useful to pay for entry? Quiz has nice ways for stash to create this feature, but other activities are likely to be more difficult. If quiz is the only one then I can move onto something else.

Hi!
I have installed this wonderful plugin but I make a mistake and add two blocks in a course.
Now I can't acces to the course if this block is activate.
How can I delete one of the block of the course.
Thanks in advanced

Hi Baltasar,
Thanks for the message, can you tell me how you managed to add the block twice in your course? I'd like to be able to replicate the problem and find a fix.

Hi Adrian,
After some thought, I don't remember how I did it.
I have restored the course but I am sure I will replicate the error again. I think it was actually when creating a trade store.
I'll keep you posted when it happens to me and again, thanks for the excellent plugin.
Regards

hello, it doesn't work on the app. when the student login the app, the button doesn't work, and the image just shows a litle bit

Hi, this plugin is great, works perfectly on individual courses, but I am using the "Use template on course creation" plugin and if I include stash items in the template courses, when I create a new course based on a template it seems to copy the first stash item to the new course, but then the copy process stalls and no other content is copied from the template (e.g. other stash items, sections, pages, quizzes etc).

Hello Ed Wright. I've not heard of the template course creation plugin until now. It will take me some time to download it, test it, and find where the problem is. If the problem actually stems from the other plugin I'll unfortunately not be able to fix it.

I have a question about award recurrences.
For example, if I put:
Supplies: 5 and I put unlimited and, in recurrence, I put 1 day.
This means that:
(a) Each day a maximum of 5 appear and there is no limit?
b) Every day one appears and there is no limit?
Thanks in advance

Hello Baltasar, in your example once you click 'Unlimited' the 5 entered in before is ignored. So you would have option b) Every day one appears and there is no limit.

Hi Guys, i just installed Stash 2.1.1 (2024091200) on Moodle 4.5+ (Build: 20241101). Stash block is available on course level. However, it is not available on site level under Site Administration. Is this the norm or is there any setting to tweak to manage it at site level?

Another question.
It's possible change the image of a object if any students has already been picked up.
Thanks in advanced.

PS: Thanks for the last answer Adrian Greeve.
