Thanks for the report, Patrick. So far I'm not having any luck reproducing the problem. I've added a course with an ampersand in the title, but it displays correctly for me in the block. Can you tell me which version of the block you are using? Which version of Moodle? And how the title is being created? For example, manually? By some automated process?
Hi, I've found a small bug with course names containing an ampersand (&). The filtered list seems to display it with the html code "& amp;" instead. Can something be done about this ? Thanks again for your great work !
My man!
I've just released v3.3.7 which includes CSS classes indicating course completion status.
Hi Brian, it's not currently possible but I quite like the idea, and it will be easy to implement. I've created an issue for it on Github at https://github.com/CLAMP-IT/moodle-blocks_filtered_course_list/issues/115 . I expect to be able to release it sometime next week.
I'm using your plugin to group courses by using Regex. Is it possible to 'tag' the courses as being complete or incomplete within the filters? Basically, I'd like to add a class the course listings if they are completed so I can style them differently. Is there a way to do that?
I've just released v3.3.6 to address the problem Patrick Viney pointed out above. Thank you again, Patrick, for calling it to my attention.
I've created an issue on the plugin's GitHub repository for this: https://github.com/CLAMP-IT/moodle-blocks_filtered_course_list/issues/108
Thank you for pointing that out, Patrick. I am able to reproduce the problem. I'll work to fix it as quickly as possible.
Hi, thank you for keeping the precious plugin up to date.
However, I have a fatal error on my fresh Moodle 3.5 installation when I try to load this page : admin/tool/dataprivacy/pluginregistry.php
" Fatal error: Interface 'core_privacy\metadata\null_provider' not found in /var/www/html/blocks/filtered_course_list/classes/privacy/provider.php on line 36"
Hi Amruta,
The Filtered Course List does not support nested displays per se, but you can perhaps achieve something close to what you are looking for by specifying a "Category rubric template" like this: PARENT > NAME . The uppercase words are tokens that will be replaced in the display by the name of the category parent and then name of the category itself. The separator can be anything you like. PARENT :: NAME would also work, for instance. Then your display should look like this:
Category 1 > Subcategory 1
Category 1 > Subcategory 2
Category 1 > Subcategory 3
Category 2 > Subcategory 1
Category 2 > Subcategory 2
Category 2 > Subcategory 3
I hope this helps. If you want to follow up, please include your block's configuration and version info. For instance, the "Category rubric template" is only available in relatively recent versions, so I don't know whether you'll have it or not.
Hi Kevin,
I want that my Filtered course list should display like the following:
Category 1
Subcategory 1
Course 1
Subcategory 2
Course 2
Subcategory 3
Course 3
Category 2
Subcategory 1
Course 1
Subcategory 2
Course 2
Subcategory 3
Course 3
Category 3
Subcategory 1
Course 1
Subcategory 2
Course 2
Subcategory 3
Course 3
Currently it display like this:
Subcategory 1
Subcategory 2
Subcategory 3
Subcategory 1
Subcategory 2
Subcategory 3
Subcategory 1
Subcategory 2
Subcategory 3
Can you help me to set the configuration of the filtered block?
It took two attempts, but I finally got the strings correctly formatted for AMOS. I confirmed that they are available in the translation interface. Thanks again for your interest in the plugin and for letting me know about the problem. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks
The discussion at this link suggests that I need to change the way I have formatted some of my strings. In particular I have some heredoc strings that will need to be replaced. Thanks so much for calling this problem to my attention!
