  Hello Joseph,
  
  will there be a Moodle 2.7 version?
  
  Best regards

  @Sebastian,
  Yes there will be a 2.7 version... when I have time.

  What I can tell from my – albeit very basic – testing in Moodle 2.7, this question type seems to work flawlessly.

  Would it be possible to extend the plug-in to multiple (short) answers (input fields) each compared to multiple regular expressions?
  I.e.:
  Question:
  The critical section access control algorithm must meet these three conditions:
  1. [ input-field ], 2. [ input-field ], 3. [ input-field ].
  
  Answers (regular expressions):
  1. for 50%: (mutual )?exclusion
  2, for 25%: progress( in allocation)?
  3. for 25%: bounded waiting
  (Or each worth 1/3 of points.)
  
  The answer from each input field would be checked to each RE and if a match is found that RE would be removed from checking remaining input fields.
  
  The purpose is to allow multiple answers in any order.
  
  Creating only one input field and requiring all the possibilities (separated by comma) would require complex RE mixing all possible orders and dealing with wrong parts. Multiple input field is much simpler.
  
  Thanks for implementing or pointing me to the solution if it already exists.

  Thanks for the permutation feature - I have found it very useful. I've also found that it seems to be limited to five options per set - I cannot get six to work. Perhaps this limitation could be documented?

  I've read through all of the documentation several times and I am having a hard time understanding why meta characters are not allowed for accepted answers. I must be missing something, can someone please explain? Thank you.

  Does the CLOZE integration of Regex still work with Moodle 3.3 ?

  Hi, I can confirm the regex integration to the multianswer (cloze) type is broken for Moodle 3.3, do you have with up-to-date renderer.php and questiontype.php files ? Or when will have them ? Thanks

  To be more precise, the existing renderer.php and questiontype.php files still work fine with the standard cloze question types but they block the new type, MULTIRESPONSE that was introduced in 3.2 (at least).

  The description of MULTIRESPONSE can be found at https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-3782

  Hi Sebastian,
  
  No 3.4 version planned, but please do report if not fully compatible with Moodle 3.4.

  Hi,
  
  I've been using this plugin for a while now and I'm really grateful to you for creating and maintaining it. It's probably the feature I use most in Moodle.
  
  I'm trying to add regex to cloze type questions but the links to the hacked files are dead - https://docs.moodle.org/24/en/Regular_Expression_Short-Answer_question_type#Inserting_RegExp_sub-questions_in_Cloze_type_questions
  
  Is there anywhere that I can find these files, please? It would be extremely helpful to have this functionality with Cloze. No problem if it's a problem.
  
  Thanks
  Alan

  Hi Alan,
  
  I'm merely keeping these plugins originally made by Joseph Rézeau up to date. But the feature you are referring to comes from the Moodle 2.4 (obsolete) documentation of the plugin. If you check the current documentation – by clicking the link at the top of the article you mention – you will see that this feature is no longer mentioned.

  As of today, the hacked files for using REGEXP questions to regular Moodle CLOZE questions have been restored (for Moodle 3.5). See the documentation at https://docs.moodle.org/35/en/Regular_Expression_Short-Answer_question_type#Inserting_RegExp_sub-questions_in_Cloze_type_questions
