Thanks Vadim for sharing this plugin with the Moodle community. I like the idea of the plugin and can see how it can useful when maintaining large question banks. I found the implementation easy to understand and follow, with no apparent issues. Well done on that. You are cleared to land now, welcome to the Plugins directory!
In Moodle 4.0, the question bank has changed quite a lot (see https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Question_bank_improvements_for_Moodle_4.0).
In particular, there is a new type of plugin: qbank_.... This should be documented at https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Question_bank_plugins, but I am afraid that this is not complete yet. (However, there is information in the upgrade.txt files in the code, and the PHPdocs in the code should explain things.)
So, I think it is a case of
Bad news: you will have to re-write all your local plugins as qbank plugins to work with Moodle 4.0+.
Good news: if you do, then they will probably work even better for users and you can probably reuse almost all of your code.
There are a lot of references in question/bank directory in Moodle 4.0 repository. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.
Cheers!
