The Attendance activity allows teachers to maintain a record of attendance, replacing or supplementing a paper-based attendance register. It is primarily used in blended-learning environments where students are required to attend classes, lectures and tutorials and allows the teacher to track and optionally provide a grade for the students attendance. The instructor can set the frequency of their classes (# of days per week & length of course) or create specific sessions. 

To take attendance, the instructor clicks on the "Update Attendance" button and is presented with a list of all the students in that course, along with configurable options and comments. The default options provided are: Present, Absent, Late & Excused. Instructors can download the attendance for their course in Excel format or text format.

Sessions can also be configured to allow students to record their own attendance and a range of different reports are available.

Sets

This plugin is part of sets Attendance, MoodleCloud.

    @Ruth Bor - best place to ask for help using the plugin is in the attendance forum here: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=741 - Of course, anything is possible if you have internal development capabilities, alternatively if you want to fund development on the plugin feel free to get in touch privately for details on rates etc.

    Good plugin, when can it be available for version 3.10?

    @Santos - the latest version is always in github and should work fine with 3.10. If you want to be helpful you could install it in 3.10 and report any issues you find to the github tracker.

    @Qambar - it sounds like you are trying to install an old version of the attendance code into a newer site. Please make sure you are using the right version of the attendance codebase for the Moodle version you are using.

    @Qambar - you have the wrong "Version" of the attendance code for the Moodle version you are using - please make sure you get the right version of the attendance code-base. Please note Moodle 3.10 is not the same as Moodle 3.1 - the versions tab above has the list of versions of the attendance plugin that you can download: https://moodle.org/plugins/mod_attendance/versions

    I tried the last two versions and reinstalled wordpress, but the automation of sending email with warning signal is not working, I need a solution to use the automation of the email.
    Send emails or sending messages function from Report option if it works fine.

    Hey, facing this crazy bug where it says:
    Exception - Class 'core_user\fields' not found
    When attempting to mark the attendance of a session. I have the Farsi language pack installed and I'm aware of the issues that arise due to the acronyms (and I've fixed it wherever it is required). However, we are still getting this error. Any idea where it comes from?

Please make sure you are using the correct version of hte attendance plugin for the Moodle version you have installed - if you are still getting this issue please provide report it (with a lot more information including versions etc) to the github tracker. - thanks.
