I used it as a system admin and it works. When I use my other account with an administrator role it gets stuck at 'Creating...'. I have allowed local/course_templates:edit and local/course_templates:view. What other permissions do I need to provide for the plugin to complete the process? I could not find much info in the previous comments here.
Thanks!
is there a way to use this plugin via the api?
Could anyone help?
Thanks, Daniel
you need to add a new category (i've added the category "Course Templates" and created courses with this category )
i don't know if we can change the category name to have courses
i tried using the plugin with moodle 3.9: When creating a new course i can choose the template and the course category. But on the 'define settings' screen, nothing happens when i click on 'next'.
javascript throws several errors:
bootstrap-datetimepicker.js:1 Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 ()
process.js:1 Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 ()
jquery-1.8.3.min.js:1 Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 ()
index.php?step=3&cid=20:1 Refused to apply style from '[...]/local/course_templates/js/bootstrap-datetimepicker.css' because its MIME type ('text/html') is not a supported stylesheet MIME type, and strict MIME checking is enabled.
Just wondering, what right needs to be enabled for managers to be able to use this plugin? Managers already have the rights to create courses using the traditional method, but I can't find the correct right to allow them to do it using this plugin.
This plugins works with the external database course creation moodle´s feature???
