Booking

Also after installing it, this error came:
The following plugins in your system are using Events 1 API deprecated handlers: 'mod_booking'.
Please, update them to use Events 2 API.
See https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Event_2#Event_dispatching_and_observers.

Hi David,
We need a tool (Reservation) that let us add a Reservation to a course. So that those who want to take part in that class, will pay before and will be registered to class, and when all the seats became full, then the class will be started.
Is this plugin doing what we need now?
Thanks

Hi Miroslav,
thank you for reporting this issue. Currently I do not have a MS SQL testing system. Also there is no funding for MS SQL support. Funding automated testing and MS SQL support could solve this and future problems with MS SQL.
Kind regards,
David

We are trying new modul "Diane Selwyn 1.0", but we have a problem on MSSQL:

Are you looking for sponsors for this plugin?

@Abdul-Khaliq Nathekar I updated the documentation with seciton CSV import. Please, take a look and if you have any questions, just ask: https://docs.moodle.org/30/en/Booking_module#CSV_import

@Tobias Mark. That is always a possibility. You can write me a message via moodle in order to talk about details.

Hi Colin,
I am sorry to be so late with my reply. I am using 2.8.7+ (20150730). I upgraded Booking from an earlier version on Moodle 2.6. I had to manually add a few database tables through phpmyadmin. Once I did, it worked fine.

Is there a way to hire you, etc. to provide funding for future releases?

Hi Rob,
What 2.8 version are you using as it won't install the block on my 2.8.7 version and we need it back asap!
Thanks
Colin

Hi Rob,
that is great to hear.
Kind regards,
David

I am sorry for replying to myself, but upgrading to the current release has fixed my cron error. Booking seems to work just fine with Moodle 2.8.

Hi David,
I have been testing Bookings with Moodle 2.8 (version 2015012100). It has been working just fine until this past weekend. When the Booking cron is called, I am seeing this error.
Processing module function booking_cron ...
Starting cron for Booking ...
Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in /srv/www/htdocs/mod/booking/locallib.php on line 159
Fatal error: __clone method called on non-object in /srv/www/htdocs/mod/booking/locallib.php on line 1386
I know it is not an official release for Moodle 2.8, but I would still be greatful if you had advice on how to work around the error.

If it helps anyone, to make the booking module available to students (currently broken for us if you use the 'Restrict answering to this time period' settings):
mod/booking/view.php
321: add: $timenow > in this line: } else if ($timenow > $booking->booking->timeclose && !has_capability('mod/booking:updatebooking', $context)) {

Hi Abdul-Khaliq,
the problem is: Documentation is not funded, neither is the development of the tool right now. Even the removal of anything is not funded, but it is a lot of work. If you want to have a certain feature or additional documentation added or removed feel free to hire somebody to do that. Any programmer will be able to tell you how the csv file has to look. And anybody can update the documentation.
Kind regards,
David
