    Hi Colin,
    I am sorry to be so late with my reply. I am using 2.8.7+ (20150730). I upgraded Booking from an earlier version on Moodle 2.6. I had to manually add a few database tables through phpmyadmin. Once I did, it worked fine.

    @Tobias Mark. That is always a possibility. You can write me a message via moodle in order to talk about details.

    Hi Miroslav,

    thank you for reporting this issue. Currently I do not have a MS SQL testing system. Also there is no funding for MS SQL support. Funding automated testing and MS SQL support could solve this and future problems with MS SQL.

    Kind regards,
    David

    Hi David,

    We need a tool (Reservation) that let us add a Reservation to a course. So that those who want to take part in that class, will pay before and will be registered to class, and when all the seats became full, then the class will be started.

    Is this plugin doing what we need now?

    Thanks

    Also after installing it, this error came:
    The following plugins in your system are using Events 1 API deprecated handlers: 'mod_booking'.
    Please, update them to use Events 2 API.
    See https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Event_2#Event_dispatching_and_observers.

    Hi All,

    after installing the plugin, we get the following error when trying to add an activity on the course page:

    Unsupported operand types in /data1/www/html/elearning/lib/form/tags.php on line 131

    the php code is:
    129 public function onQuickFormEvent($event, $arg, &$caller) {
    130 if ($event === 'createElement') {
    131 $arg[2] += array('itemtype' => '', 'component' => '');

    Hi David,

    We are having intermittent problems with the email confirmation, it is sending on some of our course bookings but not on others. However the cancelation email is working fine. Do you know of anything we can do to fix this issue?

    We are using version Moodle 3.0.

    Thanks in advance
    Paul

    Hi Paul,

    could you tell me your booking module version number (looks like this: 2016071202) . Since when do you experience those problems?

    Kind regards,
    David

    When setting up a new booking, after clicking on either of the Save buttons, I am redirected back to /course/modedit.php like as if I have not filled out one of the mandatory fields.

    Using latest version of booking module (2016071202) and Moodle (20160804), hosted on a LAMP stack.

    @Dale Davies: I can not reproduce your problem. What settings do you use? Did you have debugging turned on? Usually you are redirected to the view.php, but you have to add booking options in the block "Administration -> Booking administration -> Booking options" it was moved there in the latest version.
