Attendance
The Attendance activity allows teachers to maintain a record of attendance, replacing or supplementing a paper-based attendance register. It is primarily used in blended-learning environments where students are required to attend classes, lectures and tutorials and allows the teacher to track and optionally provide a grade for the students attendance. The instructor can set the frequency of their classes (# of days per week & length of course) or create specific sessions.
To take attendance, the instructor clicks on the "Update Attendance" button and is presented with a list of all the students in that course, along with configurable options and comments. The default options provided are: Present, Absent, Late & Excused. Instructors can download the attendance for their course in Excel format or text format.
Sessions can also be configured to allow students to record their own attendance and a range of different reports are available.
I need to use this plugin immediately
But I do not know exactly what to do
Other users have the same problem in fa Lang

In Particular - I want to know (add your comment to the github tracker) if you think the existing translations are valid - and if I need to increase the character limits in the database, or if you think the translation is not valid in which case I can look at preventing the fatal error during install.
I have tiny issue, if I change the student order to first name, then change the paging, the ordering changes back to last name order.
Could the paging be removed, or the default be "do not use paging"?
Thank you.
Thank you for this great plugin. It is essential for us.
I have 2 questions:
The first regards the interaction of the Attendance activity with the Course Template plugin: I have several courses that repeat themselves every 3-4 weeks so use the course templates plugin to create course models that i can use any time i need to create a new course without needing to create it from 0. In the course template i insert the start and end time and in its Attendance activity i configure the sessions of this course (in my case morning, afternoon sessions for 5-28 days). So in occasion of a new course all i need to do is to create a course from template, input new short name or code and change the start and end time and i have a new course. The problem i have is that the sessions in the Attendance Activity remain with the same date that i gave them when i created the template. Is there a way to automate this procedure? I want the sessions to "adapt" itselves to the new dates.
Second question: In every session i need to mark as present in the begining and at the end. So if i take the morning session from 8am to 12am i need to be able to mark at 8 and to mark at 12 and only then the student is marked as present for the whole session. Is there a way to implement this function?
Thanks in advance!!
