Moodle plugins directory: MRBS

Hi... have it running in moodle 3.05.

Is also coming up with an error, sorry .,.. sorry cannot remember exactly where... when booking a room, from memory.. but it still works.
The error also complains that it needs a programmmer to look at it..

Are you going to revisit this block soon ? Is a mission critical one...

Hi all, I also got the same error for latest moodle 3.1.1, this definitely help since we are now using two separated systems.

Thanks in advance.

Hi.

Just upgrade to moodle 3.1. Copied the code over from the old version of moodle (3.0?). Sadly in 3.1 it is broken. When I book a room.. it goes back to 1970 and I cannot seem to get it go back....

Is there any chance we can get a look at this.

TIA
Peter

Hi Peter,

The MRBS block was last tested and known to work with Moodle 2.7. I have some time scheduled next week to look at this and other plugins that need updating.

Thank you so very much.. much appreciated.. School resumes next week....

FWIW... am running the latest version of moodle Moodle 3.1.2+ (Build: 20160929). on Ubunbtu 16.04.

Of possibly more interest... is that I did quick browse of some entries in the database that I created.

And the times seemed to go in as zero ? Hence the 1970 ??

Sorry for the hassle .. I know it is annoying . ......... but have you had a chance to have a look yet.

Peter

When there is an update it will be posted here.

After a long delay, I've been able to take a look at this plugin again. To respond to the above queries:

Juan - the MOODLE_20_STABLE branch is very out of date, please use the master branch (or download directly from this page, ignoring github)
Phil, Peter, Eli - I've got MRBS up and running with Moodle 3.1 without any error messages (I've done a bit of a tidy up, but nothing major) - please could you get the latest code from the github master branch then, if you still have problems, send me step-by-step instructions about how to reproduce the problems.

If I don't hear any feedback to the contrary, I'll assume this now works with Moodle 3.1 and put up a new version here later in the week.

Downloaded the tar ... and replaced the files..
Appeared to work fine for me .. and I have put it out there for the users.. and will forward any feedback,

Many many thanks for your work on this. Much appreciated..

Does anybody know whether this will work with 3.2?

Not done any extensive testing (at some point I really should write some automated tests, but that will be quite a big job in this case), but a quick check suggests it works OK with Moodle 3.2.

We have got this installed now and its working really well, but is there any way to stop the repeat function? We have staff who need to know when events are happening and the repeated events or getting overlooked.

I've set the repeat options to 1 so that staff can't actually make a repeat booking but it doesn't overly tell them why they can't make that booking when they try to. Is there any way to hide the text so that it doesn't show repeat bookings as being an option?

Many thanks

There is no built-in way to do that, but you may be able to hide the elements by adding some custom CSS to your theme.

People struggling with "repeat" bookings returning with a booking conflict with a date of 1970 change line 326 of web/mrbs_sql.php from $entrys = ''; to $entrys = array();

Worked for us

@Overnet Data - if that's a bug fix, could you post it on github (via the 'source control URL' linked above) or, even better, submit it as a patch (via github) and I can look at integrating it properly. It would be helpful it you gave clear instructions about how to reproduce (I've not tried yet).
