    Hi Marina. I am looking for a version of this plugin that is compatible with Moodle 2.5.2, and I was wondering if it was better to take the v2.5.2 tag from git, or the latest master. Which would you recommend? Thanks.

    We've been using this plugin for a while and it's great, but we noticed that it doesn't support autologin of guests, so we had to revert to the SCORM course format for many of our courses.

    That's cool. How I can use External Tool from this single Assignment Activity ? I need to pass the LTI Context to an external App when I select the External Tool from the Activity dropdown.

    We are using single activity and selected the scorm activity. When we upload the scorm and open it in new page. The page is showing blank, the same scorm works fine in weekly or topic format.

    We are using Moodle2.7 and SCORM 1.2 and testing in updated browsers.

    Can anyone having the same issue, Please help if you have any solution for this.

    Hello Niranjan, this format is part of standard Moodle since 2.6
    If you think that you have encountered a bug, please create an issue on http://tracker.moodle.org
    However before doing it please make sure that you can reproduce the error on demo.moodle.net (the format did not change between 2.7 and 2.9) and also on your installation inspect JS Console window for errors.

    Hello Marina,

    I'd like to report something which seems to be a bug.

    I created a course with "Single Page Activity" format, added the content to the activity and saved. Today I wanted to modify it, logged in as admin and when tried to go to course summary page in order to edit it, it always takes me directly to the activity, not being able to edit it, and not allowing to use the standard path to edit a course.

    I guess it is related to the default plugins behaviour which automatically redirect incoming users to the activity page, but should be changed to consider admin ones and let them to see the course summary.

    Please, let me know if what I'm stating is correct, and if there is a workaround for it (currently just edited the course content on database).

    I'm using Moodle 2.7.

    Regards

    The secret is, when looking at the activity, Administration -> Course administration (you will need to expand this) -> Edit settings.

    This is great and just what I'm after, thanks for creating. However, at what point do I attach a certicate please? I've added on course completion and similar options but ,can't see how i'd go about configuring the certificate.

    Hi Simon, this plugin is already part of standard moodle package so all bugs or improvements have to be filed as issues in MDL project in Moodle Tracker https://tracker.moodle.org
    Sorry I do not know anything about certificates - this must be some another contrib module

    Hello Shailesh, this plugin is part of standard moodle. I do not know what you mean by the course description - if it is a course summary you can find it in the edit form, if you want the text to appear for enrolled users on the course page - add it as a description of the forum
