Booking

Great work with the new update David Bogner. Thank you for adding an option to delete a booking. All seems to be working fine. Keep up the good work.

Understand you perfectly. As already said, plugin is cool. Waiting till next week so backend team helps me out in upgrade to latest Moodle and PHP.

@Aaron Cauchi: I would recommend to upgrade to PHP 5.6 and Moodle 2.7 minimum. We do not support Moodle 2.5 since years, nor do we have a PHP 5.3 testing environment.

Hi David, plugin is fantastic until it stopped putting bookings. Unfortunately the moodle version we are using is Moodle 2.5+ (Build: 20130530) with PHP Version 5.3.5. The only details I can tell you is that i was using only three users to test it out. Worked fine, could book, have someone on standby and even replace. Mail notification of dropped booking was not working but that was trivial. Suddenly I changed (for testing purpose) the name of the booking title page and bookings were not being accepted, no error page, just after you try to book a slot, it asks if you want to confirm, you confirm and it then takes you to the booking page again. Now there should be one booking less but it shows the same bookings, thus, no bookings where accepted. Hope it makes sense the way am explaining.

@Lebato MT: Fixed tagging and deletion issues.

@Aaron Cauchi: I have never seen that. Without detailed information or access to your Moodle instance I won't be able to help you.

@Rob Johnson: Which moodle version do you use? How many booked users do you have? I can not reproduce this on my servers. Maybe this is a core moodle bug related to https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-51603 or the configuration of your server is not yet perfect.

Hello,
My institution really likes the Booking module. We are currently using Eva Thörnblad 2.0 (2016091600). We are seeing an error when using the "Export data table as" function. I would appreciate any help in solving the issue. The stack trace is below:
Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: Output can not be buffered before instantiating table_dataformat_export_format
More information about this error
Debug info:
Error code: codingerror
Stack trace:
line 1708 of /lib/tablelib.php: coding_exception thrown
line 181 of /lib/tablelib.php: call to table_dataformat_export_format->__construct()

line 271 of /mod/booking/view.php: call to flexible_table->is_downloading()

Hi All,
was testing and everything worked fine. suddenly if a user tries to book process seems ok but booking is never actually booked, he returns to the booking page with no bookings booked yet. Any solution?

Hi All,
What are the new features on the latest 2016091600? I have installed the latest version but everything still looks the same.
I would also like to know if there is a way to add Optional fields such as Yahoo ID, Skype ID etc in to the Bookings report?
Thanks,
Lebato

Good afternoon, I am using Eva Thörnblad 1.9 (2016090901) and I cant find a way to delete a Booking option. I created a booking slot, I have had to cancel it due to staff illness but the only way I can work out to "remove" it is by changing the date to the past and removing all the text within it. It sill still there in the background however but a Blank / Null booking option. And ideas?
Regards
Dan

Hi All,
Is there a way to add report fields such as 'user profile fields' from existing categories such as "Additional names" or "Optional" categories?.
I know there is an option to include fields from "Additional fields" category, but is there another way to include fields from other categories such as those i have mentuioned above?
regards,
lebato

Thanks Gerhard

@lebato MT Error "Unsupported operand types" when adding a new or editing an existing booking.
(Our environment: Moodle 3.1, PHP 7)
Reason: Tags are no longer supported by Moodle.
Solution: Comment out following line in mod/booking/mod_form.php around line 340
....
$taglink = new moodle_url('/tag/search.php', array());
$mform->addElement('static', 'searchtag', '', '' . get_string('searchtag', 'booking') . '');
=> // $mform->addElement('tags', 'tags', get_string('tags')); // disabled to prevent error regardings non supported tags
$options = array();
...
Best, Gerhard
