Probably it does but I couldn't test it yet.
Try installing it using the ZIP file an let me know if there is any issue.
Great. I can see that the last version v1.5.0 (2023032900) is tagged for Moodle 4.0 and 4.1 only (not 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5). Would mod_quest v1.5.0 work on Moodle 4.3/4.5?
Thanks
Of course. As fas as the new versions of Moodle don't break something too important. ;)
Hi Juan, thanks for your help. I've installed 1.4.8 version, and it seems to be working well (no errors, Moodle upgrade successful).
Just to know for my further upgrades (to 4.3 or 4.5) do you plan to make mod_quest plugin for Moodle 4.3/4.5?
Thanks
Hi Damir.
Ir seems that I jumped from 3.10 to 4.
Version 1.4.8 should be compatible with 3.11.
I have tagged 1.4.8 with that.
Please try it again
Hi Juan,
I'm trying to download mod_quest for moodle 3.11 (also for 4.3 and 4.5), and can't find it. Am I missing something? I need it because I'm upgrading moodle 3.7.2+ to 3.11.18, and after that 3.11.18 to 4.3/4.5.
Many thanks,
Thanks @Juan for your quick reply. I am sorry that I cannot help in this.
Sorry, currently Questournament does not work with any other module but it is a great idea. Unfortunatelly it is not a trivial implementation and now I have no time to do it.
Nevertheless, help is welcomed.
Is there anyway to include another activity within this challenge? What I want to do is to be able to do a challenge between 2 learners who answer questions in a SCORM file and based on the results that the SCORM passes to Moodle to identify the winner of the challenge.
Is there anyway to do this?
Thanks,
Hi Juan,
I have posted some feedback in the contrib issue (CONTRIB-7039) - looks like you've made some great progress but there are still some more things you should take a look at before we can approve this here. I look forward to seeing your work released in the plugins db!
Approval issue created: CONTRIB-7039

Hi Juan. Thanks again for submitting your plugin. It is apparent that the code comes from Moodle 1.x times and it would need to be modernised a lot. Honestly, as it is now, it is very hard to read and review the code. At the moment it is far away from the standards we want to see here in the Plugins directory.

I was not able to test the functionality of your plugin as it fails badly on non-MySQL databases - see your bug tracker for details.

I can see some relict pieces of legacy code - such as support for Moodle 1.x backup and restore, the debugJP_lib.php file, a lot of commented out code etc. Things like this make it harder to review the quality of the code and approve it for publishing here.

I am afraid I have to mark this as needing more work for now. I believe the code provides really interesting features, but the current implementation must be improved a lot.

Hi Juan. Thanks for sharing this plugin with the community. Please note, as per our policy MDL-47579, new plugins submitted into the plugins directory must support at least one of the currently maintained Moodle version. Currently, it means your plugin must be tested and confirmed by yourself to work with at least Moodle 2.7 (and ideally with most all recent versions). I have to mark this as needing more work now.

Once you make sure all the points in the plugin contribution checklist pass, please edit the submitted version details and set the Supported Moodle versions field as needed. Then schedule the plugin for re-approval.
