Moodleoverflow

Maintained by Thomas Niedermaier, Learnweb – University of Münster, Tamaro Walter
A non-linear, non-chronological discussion forum. Similar to the forum activity, but focuses on straightforward question-and-answer discussions. Additionally, users rate posts and gain a rating score ("reputation") by being rated by other users. Users who have started a discussion can mark an answer as helpful; and teachers can mark a post as a (correct) solution to the posed question.

Hi Jan, I've been using this module in this semester and as teacher writing comments to students answers I miss having the previous post, the answer (or other comment) to which I'm responding, on top of the message editing box. Makes life much more difficult. ¿Would it be possible to have moodleovverflow behave as the traditional post reponding page in moodle Forum?

Really miss the fast asynchronous messaging (by AJAX), as it is everywhere now. I seem to get on the site from the 2000s. Do you know if it will appear in Moodle in the near future?

Hi, it's a cool feature. BTW, it seems the posts on this does not show up in "Search Forum" searches. How to do the searching like in Search Forum?

Hi Carlos, thanks for the feedback. We have no plans for converting reputation into grades and we'd be unsure as to how this should be done exactly. If you have a specific idea how you'd expect this to work, please file an issue at https://github.com/learnweb/moodle-mod_moodleoverflow/issues. Also if you'd like to help out we welcome any contributions.

It works fantastic but I think that it would be much better if reputations could be used as or converted in grades. Is this in the roadmap? Thanks a lot

Sorry, we have no plans for mobile support right now as we are not using the app at our institution. In the meantime, if you'd like to help out we welcome any contributions towards mobile app support.

It works great! Just one big thing that is really missing: mobile app supported! Big loss in these days where everybody uses their mobile device daily. I hope you will make this work soon.

Hi guys,
It works like a charm! Thanks again! Here are some suggestions;
There should be
1. VIEWS column - next [Status - Votes - Replies - [Unread] - Views] - In settings, there will be options; turning them ON/ OFF.
2. Tags function - when one adds a new discussion topic
3. Download count in file attachment
Kind regards,
Phuong Hoang
Good job! I'll give it a try! Thanks!

Thanks for the compliments!
We have no plans for mobile support right now as we are not using the app at our institution. This might change in the future but, in the meantime, we welcome any contributions for mobile app support!
