Thank you for the plugin! I want to ask, why are meta characters allowed in incorrect, but not in accepted answers? Why aren't they allowed in the first answer? Is there some technical reason for that?

@Yulia,
The reason is that introducing meta characters in the correct answers might introduce an infinity of correct formulations. My question type only deals with a finite number of CORRECT answers ... and potentially an infinite number of INCORRECT answers.

Hello, I am trying to have atto editor for the regular expression.. for answers especially, I have changed the $answeroptions[] = $mform->createElement('text', to $answeroptions[] = $mform->createElement('editor'
But, I am facing some issues when editing the same question again, it returns blank editor. but, when it is text it works properly...
could you please guide.

Dear @Joseph Rézeau

Is this a free plugin ?

Thanks

@Mario,
Yes, it's free, of course!

Dear Community,
Has anyone experienced issues with upgrading to Moodle 3.9 and the plugin?
I am using "RX" type questions in Cloze tests however since upgrading, I have two issues:
1) When creating new questions, it does not detect that there are any embedded questions when using type RX
2) For existing questions, I get the error "Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: PHP catchable fatal error" when I display the quiz
Thanks for your help.

Just sent private e-mail to Jeffrey

@Joseph I was just contacted with a similar issue, that will hopefully be posted here too. How was this catchable error issue fixed ?

@Nicolas,
See https://github.com/rezeau/moodle_multianswer_regexp_compatible/commit/30d2e87a46268ba3add73f4ffd4260e2d84d3161

Merci Joseph, will do!

Bonjour Joseph,
I have just discovered this plugin and I am very interested in it. I am particularly interested in the automatic feedback provided by the system as in your screenshot #1. I have experimented with your examples in the documentation pages and everything works except for the automatic feedback and colour coding. Do you have any useful hints for this issue? I am using moodle 4.0 and the Tréma theme. I have also tested with the Adaptable theme just in case the problem was theme related.
Merci de votre assistance.
PS I hope this reaches you.

Hi, this seems to be my best try to get short answer fields with multiple answers where the order doesn't matter.
But does it work with cloze in version 4.0 as well? In the documentation you're only talking about older versions.

Thanks!

@Ludger
Unfortunately there have been many changes to the EMBEDDED ANSWERS / CLOZE question type in Moodle 4. I'm afraid my little hack will no longer work. I spent all afternoon to try to adapt it but to no avail. Sorry!

Hi Joseph,
great plugin, we are using it for years now. I have a question. According to the Moodle documentation, the combination of Regex and the question type "Cloze" should work, however we do not get it running. https://docs.moodle.org/404/en/Embedded_Answers_(Cloze)_question_type
Have you some working examples here? Are there issues or bugs known? I welcome any information on this topic.
Thank you and best regards from TU Wien!

Hi Gergely,
Thanks for your interest in my little REGEXP question plugin. For further discussion please e-mail me directly. My email is in my Moodle profile here: https://moodle.org/user/profile.php?id=20216. I will re-write the documentation on how to use REGEXP in the Cloze/Multianswer question type.
