Version 2.44 of the Moodle WordSelect question type by Marcus Green. Jun 2020

Fixed an issue with embedded audio. If text appears after embedded audio selections are ignored when the question is submitted. This only happens when the multimedia filter is turned on. I have moved the format code to later in the renderer and this fixes the issue. My thanks to Henny Jellema for reporting this.

Thanks to Tim hunt for an update to styles.css to make CSS rules safer. This can help when using a custom theme.

Version 2.43 of the Moodle WordSelect question type by Marcus Green. Feb 2020

This version requires at least Moodle 3.7.0. It will not work correctly with earlier versions.

valeriia-s reported that word selection would not work if a page contained multiple instances of the question type. Tim Hunt advised me on ways to address it and in selection.js. This bought in the need for Moodle 3.7. https://github.com/marcusgreen/moodle-qtype_wordselect/issues/26

Fix for when forceclean is on from Hubong Nguen for the UK OU. https://github.com/marcusgreen/moodle-qtype_wordselect/pull/23 There is a plan for forceclean to default to on. https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-62352 Forceclean entirely broke Wordselect rendering (and other plugins).

Mahmoud Kassaei from the UK OU reported that trailing puncuation was hard to see on selected text https://github.com/marcusgreen/moodle-qtype_wordselect/pull/24 The CSS has been adjusted to make it clearer.
