Moodle plugins directory: Group choice

Hi Nicolas,
this is a great module - I'm running 2.6.4 and there is something wrong with images when i try to show description in mod/choicegroup/view.php page

Noticed when you select a group to display from the visible groups drop down, the list of responses are not limited to that group. Rather, all responses are still displayed.

Hi

on a 2.7 Moodle, is it possible to notify by mail the student when he makes a choice in the choicegroup activity ?

i'll be very interested by this little function

thanks

Hi Luigi,
It would be pretty trivial to make an event listener to listen for the \mod_choicegroup\event\choice_updated event and to send an e-mail to the user when received. But what would be the point? And I guess it should be configurable?

the goal is to notify by email the student's group once he has chosen his group

Hello Nicolas,

Do you have an estimate on when this will be compatible with 2.8?

Thanks,

Mark

Hello Mark,

This is already compatible with Moodle 2.8, as there are only minor changes in the Moodle API between Moodle 2.7 and Moodle 2.8. My preliminary tests showed no problem whatsoever, but I'm waiting for final test results to officially announce Moodle 2.8 support.

Thanks Nicholas!

Here you are, Mark.

hi
I've installed the latest version, but there is not the email notification option...
maybe the next release ?
I hope...
cheers.

Hi Luigi,

I didn't have time to implement this so far. I'll keep it in mind though as it is visible in the GitHub issues of this plugin.

Hi Nicolas,
I've installed the newest version while upgrading to Moodle 2.7.3. Is the help text correct for the setting Groups?
'Here is where you specify the options that participants have to choose from.

You can fill in any number of these. If you leave some of the options blank, they will not be displayed. If you need more options, click the "Add 3 fields to form" button.'

Cheers.

Hi,

We installed the lastest version and now we got this error when we try to access to choicegroup activity :
Fatal error: Call to undefined method cm_info::create() in /moodle/mod/choicegroup/lib.php on line 832

We are running Moodle 2.7.5 and we found that the create() function does not exist in Moodle 2.7 !
The function only exists in moodle 2.8.

You can check this here :
> http://fossies.org/dox/moodle-2.8.3/classcm__info.html
"Static Public Member Functions
static create ($cm, $userid=0)"

> http://fossies.org/dox/moodle-2.7.5/classcm__info.html
no create() function

Can you fix it ? (maybe by creating branchs for each version ?)

I create an issue : https://github.com/ndunand/moodle-mod_choicegroup/issues/63

Hi Pascal,

Sorry about that. I just released a new version taking care of this. The plugin works now as expected on Moodle 2.7 and 2.8.

Monica,
Thanks for pointing this out. Indeed, these instructions refer to an older version of the module and have to be updated. I'll correct this for the next release of the plugin.
