Hallo,
Is it possible to use this module, not as a SocialWiki, but as a SocialBook writing tool?
So online readers can view chapters containing pages, made by online authors/editors.
A page may have several alternative content-pages (clones) containing either a different writing style or a different story plot.
Readers may comment on some page-alternatives and give advice. Readers may click on the favourite button besides their alternative-page (clone).
When many readers 'like' a particular alternative of a page, this one is promoted to become the main version.
Thus, some alternative-pages form the most favourite story-plot through out the chapter.
This way a favourite story route builds up through the pages and chapters.

Friendly regards,
Rolf Cper

Thanks guys. This is a great improvement compared to what we could see last time. And I must say, I really like the concept of the module. It provides very nice and interesting features - I especially like the tree diagram of page revisions.

The plugin could provide a bit less of actual CSS formatting - especially those bold and italic links may not always look well and consistently with what the user expects from other Moodle pages.

There are some major expected APIs not implemented - for example, I did not notice support for events / logging (see https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Event_2 and https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Migrating_logging_calls_in_plugins even if there is actually nothing to be migrated in your case).

While testing the functionality and reviewing the code, I spotted some minor issues that should be quite easy to be fixed and reported them into your bug tracker.

Overall, I think this is good enough now to be approved so that you can gather further feedback from the community. You module has a big potential, good luck with maintaining it. You are cleared to land now, welcome to the Plugins directory!

Thanks for providing the updated code - I've just taken a brief look through at the code (I did not install it locally) but found a few more issues - it would be really good if you tested your plugin using PostGres as it looks like you have a few MySQL specific SQL queries - if you get it working on Postgres it will usually work fine on the other Dbs we support as well.

It would be good for you to close the issues in your github tracker that you believe have been fixed too!

Hi guys. Thanks for sharing the plugin with the Moodle community. While attempting to test the functionality of the plugin, I ran into multiple fatal PHP errors and reported them to your bug tracker. Currently, the module does not look like production ready to me, to be honest.

While scanning the code, I spotted some issues you should review and address before re-submitting the plugin for approval here.

Good work so far. I believe the module has a potential. It just seems to need a bit more work yet.
