If students enrol via the enrolment plugin "Waitlist & Custom course fields" they are put into a waitlist in case the maximum amount of course participants is reached. They later get enrolled automatically as soon as free seats are available. The plugin also can be used to add custom course fields.

    Hi Flotter and everyone!
    Do you have experience or comments about using the latest version of this plugin for Moodle 3.6.2? We would like to know if it is supposed to work. Thanks.

    Hi!
    The last question (from February) has not been answered yet. Can I assume that the plugin is no more activlely developed/supported?
    Cheers,
    Timo.

    Hi Timo,

    We are currently working on implementing GDPR compliance but it still will be for moodle 3.5

    If you need the plugin for another moodle version urgently or if you need a new feature etc., please send a development request at https://www.emeneo.com/support including your budget.

    You also can help with testing the plugin in higher moodle versions and sending us bugs you found.

    Greetings,
    Flotter

    Greetings Flotter Totte,

    I just wanted to report on two bugs I’ve stumbled upon (Waitlist version: 3.5-h; Moodle version 3.5.8):
    1. Changing the available seats in a course to a specific value (e.g. 32) and back to infinite (=0) won’t enroll users who were previously on the waitlist. They remain stuck on the waitlist.
    2. When using 2 or more waitlists for a single course as enrollment methods, users can only enter the password of the top waitlist.

    Kind regards
    Sebastian

    Hey Sebastian, Regarding 1: Users should be pushed inside as soon as the next cron job runs

    Thanks for your reply.
    It works fine when changing the course size to a specific value (e.g. 10 -> 12), but as mentioned above when changing it to infinite (e.g. 10 -> 0), users on the wait list remain stuck.
    If you could point me the way on where to check in the code (having issues finding the cron job you mentioned), we would try to come up with a solution to this issue.

    @Azmat Ullah, I just tried on moodle 3.9 and found no issues with that. Please open a ticket at www.emeneo.com/support or post the problem on github. Please Describe your steps and include a screenshot.

    using Course Enrol Waitlist Plugin Version 3.9-1 2021030800; description says this is used with manual enrollment and I am only seeing availability for self-enrollment. Also, indicates that an email will be sent to learner - only email and not notification within Moodle?

    I installed the plugin in my site, 3 instances of it. However, once i click one of the "click to enter text" all 3 are selected. I noticed that there is the same id for the form. How to change that to be able to use 3 instances in the same course?

    Hi Georgia, this plugin is more of a waitlist for courses, not an activity waitlist. Take a look at the FaceToFace plugin. It also includes a waitlist feature but at an activity level.

    Hey Georgia, Please send a screenshot of your problem, especially where you click. You can send it on github (I saw you posted the problem there, too). Thanks!

    Hi! Is there a way to extract/see a list of people that are on a waitlist in a specific course but with date/time signature they were added to the waitlist? What i want to know is who signed to waitlist from 1st to last.
