Moodle plugins directory: Reengagement

@Angela, in future please don't use the Moodle.org site to ask for Totara support - Totara has it's own forums. Please also make sure you are using an up to date version of the code (Totara doesn't have a plugins db, so you should be using code from github.) - thanks!

Good! When will the version for moodle 3.8 be released?

@hugo, the code is always released first in the github repo, we are not aware of any issues related to using it in 3.8 - thanks.

I added some enhancements and made a pull request on GitHub, I'm wondering if you'd be interested in adding these to core? https://github.com/catalyst/moodle-mod_reengagement/pull/63

Thanks Nicholas - we have seen that, but have a lot going on at the moment! - hopefully we'll get a chance to look at it sometime. thanks for your pull request!

I configured the reengagement with activity completion by different groups of students, which are separated by the beginning of the month (group MAY, group JUNE, etc.)

But now I am registering JUNE students and they receive the notifications that correspond to the MAY group.

This is my initial config:
- The module has access restriction by group and date:
key OR for groups
fist group of restriccition: group: MAY AND date: 10/05
second group of restriccition: group: JUNE AND date: 10/06

- The reengagement has this config:
Email User setting: on completion
activity completion: (the same configuration as the module)
key OR for groups
fist group of restriccition: group: MAY AND date: 10/05
second group of restriccition: group: JUNE AND date: 10/06

but to the enrollment today the students of June, the message still arrives even if it is not yet 10/6

PD: use Moodle 3.8

@Nicolas - Groups restrictions should work fine - I see you've created a post in the forums which is a better place for this sort of thing:

Hopefully someone else might help you there!

@Dan - thanks, but apparently they don't work well. In the forum there are other users reporting the same problem. Is there another plugin that works similar to this one?

Hi @Dan it is possible to put % of activities completed ?

@Robson - feel free to get in touch privately if you want to fund development on this plugin - otherwise, pull requests are always welcome!

Is it compatible with 3.9+ version of Moodle?

@Ricardo - we're not aware of any issues using the latest version (in github) on a 3.9 site. If you run into any issues feel free to report them to our github tracker. thanks.

Hi. I installed the plugin to my moodle 3.9. and set the notification "never". just set the engagement time to 1 min. but it doesn't accept that and change to 5 mins when I display the settings again. I said ok and keep it 5 mins. I adjusted the restrictions to previous and next activities. I completed the previous activity and wait for 5 mins but nothing happen. It doesn't activate the next activity. Am I doing right? or that plugin doesn't make such restrictions? thank you.

@aziz - the reengagment activity isn't really designed to work with such low values - there are a few different things that could prevent it from running so quickly. As you are just starting out using the plugin I'd suggest looking at some of the examples mentioned in the documentation and ask for help in the community forums if you are still struggling to understand how to use this plugin. Good luck!

@Dan Marsden - Thank you for your response. Actually I am using it what exactly it offers me. I set the time, I restricted the activity and wait for the reengagement time to finish and enable reengaging, but it didn't work. It is set to 5 mins to reengage but it let me to reengege after 11 or 12 minutes. I set the time for 10 minutes but waited 19minutes to reengage. Thank you.
