Attendance Register
CINECA elearning SUPPORTThis is an activity module for tracking time spent by Students (or other users) in a Course or in a related group of Courses.
Online activity is automatically tracked.
Users may also (optionally) record "offline" sessions of work.
The module will show aggregate report by user, or detailed report at user's session level.
Printable versions of all reports are available.
It also supports activity completion rules by minimum time in the Course.
By defaults, it tracks only activity in the Course the instance is in.
You may change this behaviour by module instance configuration. You may track all Courses in the same Category or Courses "meta-linked" to this Course.
By default, it tracks only Student's activity.
You may choose whose activity will be tracked by modifying Role Capabilities.
By default, only Teachers, Managers and Administrator may see other report of other user's activities.
You may change this behaviory by modifying Role Capabilities.
The Module is currently translated in English and Italian.
Documentation and an FAQ (small - work in progress) are available in English only.
Note
this module is based on the idea of the old Register module for Moode 1.x, but it is not an update of this module.
You cannot upgrade or restore Register data from Moodle 1.9 using this Attendance Register module.
Please note that this module is not related to Attendance module.
Attendance Register (this module) automatically calculates time spent online in Moodle's courses, while Attendance module allow teacher to explicitly certify attendance to a specific "offline" session.
Important note about Moodle >2.7 compatibility
The newest version of this plugin supports the new logging system introduced by Moodle 2.7

You should be able to make module translation in German without any problem.
Every message or string is taken form Moodle translation system. Nothing is hardwired.
You should translate all strings in module's language file.
Strings you can't find in this file are taken from general Moodle translations ("All" is an example). You should do nothing with them. They are automatically translated if you install German language pack and switch user (or site default) language.
About date/time formatting, everything is done using Moodle's internal formatting functions, that format date/time based on site/user language.
So, you have nothing to do to translate it too.
If you are successful translating the module in German, please share the translation file. I'll be glad to include in the distribution.
Thanks
This is probably a very stupid question, but can you confirm something for me as I'm still trying to track down the redirect issue on my server? In my new install the final part of the URL for the attendance register page is /view.php/?id=
There's a / after .php. In my old install of register on 1.9 there's just /view.php?id= and in almost every resource I've seen it's just .php?id=.
Can you confirm the / should never exist? I'm assuming (for whatever reason) the / is being added by something else and causing my problem, but I don't know for sure hence the question.
Thanks,
Todd
No "/" should exist after any .php in any Moodle URL.
You problably have an url-rewrite issue. This is not related to a specific module.
Does Worpress use url-rewriting for SEO? Isn't it messing up Moodle 's URL?
I don't use Wordpress, so I'm just guessing.
I'm using the latest version of Moodle so I went ahead and switched to the use stats block/training sessions reporting combo so I was able to show regulators I could do what they wanted via time tracking, but thanks for all your help.
Your plugin in the 1.9 series has been a huge help to me over the past several years providing reports that I'm required to submit for regulated courses.
exception 'download_file_exception' with message 'Unable to download the package' in mdeploy.php:726
Stack trace:

I don't use AdminPanel so I've no hint, but an "unable to download" error sounds like a problem related to the site you are downloading from (Moodle site)

If not can it be used as a tool to obtain this information? Other options??
this module calculate and show time online per session of work, not per day.
You could modify it with some PHP coding to sum sessions by day and changing in the way of displaying data (the work isn't negligible).
An alternative method, requiring SQL but no PHP coding, could be writing a custom report based on data generated by this module.
thanks
thanks
I've no short-term schedule for testing/porting the module to 2.5
Actually, it is possible it works without any change.
But I've no time to test it extensively by now, sorry.
If you'll try it on 2.5 (maybe not on a Production installation
I've used AttendanceRegister module on moodle 2.3, it's ok for me but now I want to show ID Number of students into reports. How I can do?
thanks
you can do it with some PHP coding ;)
The table of users is generated by html_table() function in attendanceregister_tracked_users.class.php.
This function iterates the tracked users. You should be able to show any user's info without modifying anything else.
I did it already thank you for your instruction. I modified 2 files first is attendanceregister_tracked_users.class.php and the second one is lang/en/attendanceregister.php.
In the first file I add some code in function html_table() please see below
# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
public function html_table() {
global $OUTPUT, $doShowPrintableVersion;
$strNotAvail = get_string('notavailable');
$table = new html_table();
$table->attributes['class'] .= ' attendanceregister_userlist';
/// Header
$table->head = array(
get_string('count', 'attendanceregister'),
// # # # Koe add column idnumber in header # # #
get_string('idnumber', 'attendanceregister'),
get_string('fullname', 'attendanceregister'),
get_string('total_time_online', 'attendanceregister'),
);
// # # # Koe add header alignment in a new column and comment the old code # # # //
$table->align = array('left','center', 'left', 'right');
//$table->align = array('left', 'left', 'right');
if ( $this->register->offlinesessions ) {
$table->head[] = get_string('total_time_offline', 'attendanceregister');
$table->align[] = 'right';
$table->head[] = get_string('grandtotal_time', 'attendanceregister');
$table->align[] = 'right';
}
$table->head[] = get_string('last_session_logout', 'attendanceregister');
$table->align[] = 'left';
/// Table Rows
if( $this->users ) {
$rowcount = 0;
foreach ($this->users as $user) {
$rowcount++;
$userAggregate = null;
if ( isset( $this->usersSummaryAggregates[$user->id] ) ) {
$userAggregate = $this->usersSummaryAggregates[$user->id];
}
// Basic columns
$linkUrl = attendanceregister_makeUrl($this->register, $user->id);
// # # # Koe add data in a new column # # # //
$idnumberWithLink = '' . $user->idnumber . '';
$fullnameWithLink = '' . fullname($user) . '';
$onlineDuration = ($userAggregate)?( $userAggregate->onlineTotalDuration )
$onlineDurationStr = attendanceregister_format_duration($onlineDuration );
// # # # Koe add data in a new column and comment the old code # # # //
$tableRow = new html_table_row( array( $rowcount, $idnumberWithLink, $fullnameWithLink, $onlineDurationStr ) );
//$tableRow = new html_table_row( array( $rowcount, $fullnameWithLink, $onlineDurationStr ) );
// Add class for zebra stripes
$tableRow->attributes['class'] .= ( ($rowcount % 2)?' attendanceregister_oddrow':' attendanceregister_evenrow' );
// Optional columns
if ( $this->register->offlinesessions ) {
$offlineDuration = ($userAggregate)?($userAggregate->offlineTotalDuration)
$offlineDurationStr = attendanceregister_format_duration($offlineDuration);
$tableCell = new html_table_cell( $offlineDurationStr );
$tableRow->cells[] = $tableCell;
$grandtotalDuration = ($userAggregate)?($userAggregate->grandTotalDuration )
$grandtotalDurationStr = attendanceregister_format_duration($grandtotalDuration);
$tableCell = new html_table_cell( $grandtotalDurationStr );
$tableRow->cells[] = $tableCell;
}
$lastSessionLogoutStr = ($userAggregate)?( attendanceregister__formatDateTime( $userAggregate->lastSassionLogout ) )
$tableCell = new html_table_cell( $lastSessionLogoutStr );
$tableRow->cells[] = $tableCell;
$table->data[] = $tableRow;
}
} else {
// No User
$row = new html_table_row();
$labelCell = new html_table_cell();
$labelCell->colspan = count($table->head);
$labelCell->text = get_string('no_tracked_user', 'attendanceregister');
$row->cells[] = $labelCell;
$table->data[] = $row;
}
return $table;
}
}
In file attendanceregister.php I add a new constant $string['idnumber'] = 'ID Number'; for show header column in a report.
Thank you for your advice :D
Koe
I am running Moodle 2.4.3 (Build: 20130318). I wonder if it is possible to install your plugin. Could you please clue me in on this? Thanks Leonardo
