Hi,
We have been having issues with the 1.3 (2013090100)Moodle 2.5 version installed on our Moodle 2.6
This has been sending out the reminders repeatedly on the one day instead of just once.
I was wondering if you knew when the next upgrade will be released to work on either Moodle 2.6 and/or 2.7
Thanks!
To anyone following this thread. I can confirm that reminder version 2013090100 installed with moodle 2.6.4 is in fact working just fine.
Hi Mario,
Which version should we use for moodle 2.6.4
We have reminder version 2013090100 installed but reminders are not being sent.
Many thanks.
Hi,
I migrated the reminder module to the new task and event system.
Should be 2.7 ready, feel free to test it.

Great plugin, thank you. Is working in 2.6(.3), but we are looking to upgrade to 2.7 at the end of the year. What are the possibilities of this being ready for 2.7 by then? I am yet to test it in 2.7 but know our ICT guys will be hesitant to use it if it isn't 2.7 ready.
Thanks again. Great work.
I have installed it successfully, but how to test it. currently it is not sending any automatic mails....
Hello and Thanks
maybe you can developed for modlee 2.6
Thanks
Hi Isuru,
Thank you for the pluging. it works perfectly but now when I execute the cron.php it gives mistake that it cannot write in the database. Without the pluging it works. I use moodle 2.4
I have activated the debuging and he says
Warning: Missing argument 6 for get_logs(), called in /var/www/moodle/local/reminders/lib.php on line 70 and defined in /var/www/moodle/lib/datalib.php on line 1945

Deleting and returning to install it returns to work but it can return to fail. Thank you very much,
Hi Isuru,
Thanks for the plugin, it works great on Moodle 2.6 for me!
Is it, or would it be possible to have an option to send reminder to only those who not completed a task? My problem is that the email is sent out to everyone who has the task in the course, and if someone has completed a task and gets a reminder of it, that can be quite confusing for him/her.
Hi Isuru -- Looking forward to a 2.6 release smile
Hi Mario, thank you for the suggestion - I will test it.
Hi Isuru, thank you for your response and for your work on the plugin.
Hi Mario/Mert,
Thanks for noticing this. I think there is an issue with database quering in Moodle v2.5 which some users have complained plugin is not working properly. I will look into this and soon I will be able to solve the problem.
Thanks again.
Hi,
In group_reminder.class.php go to line 58.
change:
if (!empty($this->course)) {
to
if (!empty($this->course) && !empty($this->event->instance)) {
This should fix a bug when for some reason the event instance is empty.
hope it helps
regards
Mario
Our experience on a Moodle v2.5.1 site is that the cron is not able to process reminders for group events. Any suggestions? Here is what we get in cron:
