We use Moodle 4.1 version. I created a Behavior, and checked a required option. I saved and see the Behavior, but I can not see any new option in the field editing form. Did I understand what you wrote correctly? Is this how I should do it?
TIA, Csaba
A bit more complicated than I expected, but it WORKS!
I've gone through all the settings several times, but I'm out of ideas. Has anyone encountered something similar?
Thanks for the enhanced possibility to create databases in Moodle with this plugin datalynx.
We just tested the field "Team Member Select" in Moodle 4.1 and 4.5 and we're not sure, if we used it right: The use case is, to let users select a given database entry (i.e. participants can choose their favorite elective course).
But using "Team member select:subscribe" will not insert a participant to this database-entry of elective courses that he selected, it will insert him to the first database-entry until the max number is reached. Is this behaviour a feature (and we use the "Team member select" field not correctly) or is it a bug?
We hope, you can help us to understand this phenomenon and model our use case.
Thanks in advance for your help and Kind regards, Katja
we can't provide support for specific usage problems here. Could you write to info at wunderbyte.at ideally attaching some screenshots or the course backup so we can help you with the problem.
Kind regards,

Custom filter is lost when selecting another page (using the paginator).
Quería consultar si está planificada la actualización del plugin a Moodle 5.1 y, en caso afirmativo, si hay alguna previsión de fechas.
Cualquier información sobre el progreso o necesidades de colaboración será bienvenida.
Muchas gracias.
Hello everyone,
I would like to ask whether an update of this plugin for Moodle 5.1 is planned and, if so, whether there is any estimated timeline.
Any information about the progress or possible collaboration needs would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.
thank you for the comment and the use of the plugin. We are indeed actively developing the plugin and it is going to work for Moodle 5.1. We have no timeline yet. It is a very complex plugin and changes to do are quite a lot. So any help to go further would be highly appreciated. If you could contact us at info at wunderbyte.at we would be very happy to discuss your requirements and wishes for the plugin.
Kind regards,
David
