Hi Enrique, thank you for this notification. In fact the location of the plugin respository has changed. It is now here: https://github.com/Wunderbyte-GmbH/moodle-mod_datalynx I updated the source control url accordingly.
Hi, latest version is Release v501.1-DataDream, but github site https://github.com/dasistwas/moodle-mod_datalynx has no tag or branch for it. Do you plan to upgrade it?
Hi Natalia,
thank you for the comment and the use of the plugin. We are indeed actively developing the plugin and it is going to work for Moodle 5.1. We have no timeline yet. It is a very complex plugin and changes to do are quite a lot. So any help to go further would be highly appreciated. If you could contact us at info at wunderbyte.at we would be very happy to discuss your requirements and wishes for the plugin.
Kind regards,
David
Hola a todos,
Quería consultar si está planificada la actualización del plugin a Moodle 5.1 y, en caso afirmativo, si hay alguna previsión de fechas.
Cualquier información sobre el progreso o necesidades de colaboración será bienvenida.
Muchas gracias.
Hello everyone,
I would like to ask whether an update of this plugin for Moodle 5.1 is planned and, if so, whether there is any estimated timeline.
Any information about the progress or possible collaboration needs would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.
In the file field, when a PDF file is uploaded, a preview of it is displayed. What needs to be done to prevent the PDF file preview from being displayed? Thank you very much.
Hi,
Custom filter is lost when selecting another page (using the paginator).
Dear Katja,
we can't provide support for specific usage problems here. Could you write to info at wunderbyte.at ideally attaching some screenshots or the course backup so we can help you with the problem.
Kind regards,
David
Dear David,
Thanks for the enhanced possibility to create databases in Moodle with this plugin datalynx.
We just tested the field "Team Member Select" in Moodle 4.1 and 4.5 and we're not sure, if we used it right: The use case is, to let users select a given database entry (i.e. participants can choose their favorite elective course).
But using "Team member select:subscribe" will not insert a participant to this database-entry of elective courses that he selected, it will insert him to the first database-entry until the max number is reached. Is this behaviour a feature (and we use the "Team member select" field not correctly) or is it a bug?
We hope, you can help us to understand this phenomenon and model our use case.
Thanks in advance for your help and Kind regards, Katja
Dear Csaba, we just released a new version with improved error handling. Kind regards, David
Hi Csaba, you can send me a backup of your moodle course to info at wunderbyte.at or create an issue on github: https://github.com/Wunderbyte-GmbH/moodle-mod_datalynx/issues Usually it should work fine. Does the notification appear, that the entry was saved?
Unfortunately, we ran into another problem during testing. Filling in the form is fine the first time, it captures the data fine, but on subsequent attempts (different users), even if we press the save button, nothing is captured. No error message, just simply no data recorded. (There is no limit to the number of entries)
I've gone through all the settings several times, but I'm out of ideas. Has anyone encountered something similar?
Dear David, Thank you!!!
A bit more complicated than I expected, but it WORKS! smile
Sorry, the markup is rendered is wiki markup. So please head over to the docs link I posted.
You are almost there: You have to add the field and the behavior in the entry template section of the view. So when editing a view you can add the field and then you can click on the field and choose from 2 dropdowns: renderer and behavior. There your behavior shouls appear. Sometimes the GUI is buggy then you can use that: behaviorname
behaviorname
. I updated the docs as well: https://docs.moodle.org/402/en/Datalynx_Tags#Field_tags_with_behavior_and_renderer I saw the markup I used here was filtered so it was not of much help.
Dear David, Thanks for your quick answer!
We use Moodle 4.1 version. I created a Behavior, and checked a required option. I saved and see the Behavior, but I can not see any new option in the field editing form. Did I understand what you wrote correctly? Is this how I should do it?
TIA, Csaba
