Does this work with Moodle 4.5?

Hello, a new version is on the way
I am waiting for validation of the concerned service to publish it in moodle.org
You can find it on the VCS tag 1.1.0

new version for Moodle 4.5 with new features 2D and 3D drawing + spectrum representation

When will 5.0 be available?

Hi,

I just tested the plugin and saw that it's available for teachers to create question statements, but not for students to use in the answer field. Is this a limitation of the plugin, or is it possible to enable it for student use as well?

Ricardo,

I was disappointed to discover the same thing. Although the tiny/molstructure capability exists and is granted to students, it is not evaluated in the quiz attempt context. It seems Moodle deliberately restricts the TinyMCE plugins that can load during quiz attempts, presumably because plugins (such as those loading external JS libraries like ChemDoodle) may interfere with autosave, attempt reloads, or secure quiz modes etc.

This means the behaviour cannot be enabled through permissions alone. As a workaround, students can construct chemical structures in another editor where the plugin is available and paste the structure into their quiz response.
