Question regarding Moodle version 3.10. Recently we have upgraded to this version, but the plugin manager keeps reporting report_coursesize as outdated. But the version suggested is lower than that installed:
- installed plugin version: 2019052800
- version suggested: 2016051600 (There is a new version 2016051600 available!)
Wouldn't you know how to remedy this?
Tested & Work Fine 3.10
Thanks Michael - I've merged that in! smile
Hi Dan, I submitted a pull request https://github.com/catalyst/moodle-report_coursesize/pull/23 to address some language issues. We have multi-language courses with multi-language course and category names. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I tested the fix with Moodle in English and French.
Also, any chance that you could update the list of compatibility here on Moodle.org so that we can install the plugin directly into newer versions of Moodle? It is listed as being only compatible up to version 3.7 but obviously works with later versions too.
Does this plugin still work well in Moodle 3.9.1@Richard?
@richard - pull requests are always welcome! Make sure you have pathtodu set in moodle and you might also want to take a look at the async branch in github for an alternative version.
Could you make this plugin more user friendly for large sites? Our Moodle has around 20.000 courses. The report is not working for large Moodle sites or takes forever to load. Perhaps something with pagination? Moodle 3.9.1 btw.
@Dan: ok. I will let you know.
@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.
Is it compatible with 3.9+ version of Moodle?
@Mahmood - the current version of this plugin shows "live" data - it doesn't cache specific disk usage like private file areas, but Moodle doesn't physically remove files straight away on deletion - it "flags" them for deletion and then relies on various cron processes to delete the files. Try asking in the forums for more details or do a search for "Moodle Trash files" and it might show up a few related posts.
Hello and thanks for this good plugin. Problem I see is that I don't know how to refresh the plugin. For example, I have found out that a the file sizes in private space of a user, X, is large and he has deleted the files. When I rerun the course size in report section, I see previous results quickly. Seems that it has cached the previous results. I also tried to purge all cache via Site administration-> Development-> Purge caches but has no effect.
@Jinxing Chen - yeah, we've got the same version on a few 3.9 sites already too - must be time to update the plugins db!
Is current version 2019052800 compatible with Moodle V3.8.3?
Hi, thank you for your plugin, it's very useful ! For information, I installed it on Moodle 3.8.2 and it works fine.
