Hide Correctly Answered Questions on Re-Attempt
This Moodle plugin allows teachers to hide question visibility from students who have been correctly answered in previous attempts. This can be useful in preventing students from seeing the correctly answered questions and encourages them to attempt only the incorrect questions on the next attempts.
Enhanced Feature: In addition to allowing teachers to hide previously answered questions, this Moodle plugin now enables automatic grading of correct answers in subsequent attempts. This ensures students only focus on revisiting and reattempting questions they haven't answered correctly before. This feature encourages more effective learning and review.

Configuration
To configure the plugin settings, follow these steps:
1. Log in to your Moodle site as a 'course administrator' or 'teacher'.
2. Navigate to the course where the quiz is located.
3. Turn editing on.
4. Click on the quiz activity to access its settings.
5. In the quiz settings page, locate the 'Question behavior' section and 'click on' it.
6. Look for the 'Each attempt builds on the last' setting and 'enable' it. This setting allows each attempt to build on the previous one, retaining the user's previous responses and providing a cumulative learning experience.
7. Next, scroll down to the 'Extra restrictions on attempts' section.
8. From the dropdown setting 'Hide questions on attempt', select the option that says 'Hide the correct answered question in new attempt'.
9. To keep the question mark and feedback from your previous attempt on a hidden question, select the "Auto grade the correct questions" option in the "Questions auto-grade" dropdown setting.
10. Save the quiz settings to apply the changes.
With these settings enabled, when a learner attempts the quiz again, the questions will be hidden, allowing them to reflect on their previous attempt and make improvements without directly seeing the correct answers.
Note: It's important to communicate these settings to your learners so they understand the behavior of the quiz and the purpose behind hiding the questions on subsequent attempts.

Screenshots
I've just given this a run and it seems that correct essay questions do hide, but don't retain their mark or feedback from the previous attempt.
Is this something I've missed, or a feature you might have in the future?
We've just released a new version that now automatically grades correct answers in subsequent attempts.
Our students are facing an issue when re-attempting the quiz.
The wrong questions aren't showing, and the only option is to submit the quiz.
We set up the time between attempts to 15 minutes. Also, I followed all the steps mentioned above in configuration.
Is anybody else facing it?
