Hi. First and foremost thank you for this wonderful extension.
I have tried to change the location of the popup window through editing your Dictionary.js file in the filter but it doesn't change would it be possible for you to guide me on this issue?
I changed the line of the popupwindow of by adding features to it but it doesn't take effect.

I tried to install the addon and twice there is the error: Error reading from database so I have to delete it via FTP. Do you have any idea about the error? I am having Moodle 2.5.8

in the version.php you can set a "required" other plugin, i was tempted to quickly uninstall plugin, and not even bothering to mess with this plugin. till i looked at the error in more fine detail. if you did a "required other plugin = block_dictionary" i would not be seeing below issues. but would of realized i need to install "block_dictionary" as well. docs.moodle.org/dev has more details about it, for the version.php options.

multi $string errors just showing below
Invalid get_string() identifier: 'dictionaryname' or component 'block_dictionary'. Perhaps you are missing $string['dictionaryname'] = ''; in /lang/en/block_dictionary.php?

Hi,

Nice block.

Spainish RAE Dictionary has changed its URL. Here you are the new right one:

http://dle.rae.es/?w=#WORD#

Thanks!

My students are missing your plug-in since the move to 3.x. I would also like to know if it is likely to be updated.
Many thanks.

Tried the plugin on Moodle 3.4. Didn't work, so I tried to uninstall it, and now my website does not work anymore.

Table "block_dictionary" does not exist

Did you install the dictionary block? If not install the dictionary block resinstall the filter, then remove the filter and then the dictionary block.

Hope this helps
