Hello!
In Moodle 4.5 and 5.0.1, we receive the following debugging message.
This file should not be manually included by any component.
Is the plugin still being updated?
Best regards,
Friedhelm
Hi, we have some bugs with 4.5 version. Will you update the plugin for 4.5 ?. thanks
Is it compatible with Moodle 4.5?
Hi, I can only join all other posters with praises for the idea for the plugin. Unfortunately, it will not work in our environment because we have strict rules that our clients can't communicate with another group of clients (group in the sense of Moodle groups). They can communicate only within one Moodle group. It would be great if teams could be created from users within one group, and that way support Moodle options "Group mode - Separate groups" and "Force group mode - Yes".
Hi!
This is a really good activity.
Will you be updating this plugin for 4.3?
Is it possible that people can react on each other so you get more an discussion
Hi Synnac, Thank you for your feedback in this, I will create an issue to improve the texts and help strings accordingly. I don't have any direct export feature added in the debate page, but I have some reporting features planned which might include features like this.
Is it possible to export the debate detail in exel or cvs format?
Sorry, I should've posted my messages all at once, but thoughts just came up in my mind.
Ttw, this is a really great plugin, just what i've hoped for!
Another suggestion: There should be a tip provided for "Response allowed" in the team edit page, like "You should fill in a number from 0 to xxx, 0 means unlimited", so on and so forth, or else people wouldn't know what to fill in the blank.
BTW, the first time I had no clue what to fill in, so I filled a random character and got an error message. The error message can be improved, actually, like "you should fill in a number..."
Just a suggestion for more friendly use.
Hi Teejay,
Thank you for your comments. I have added this feature to the backlog in the Trello board.
Cheers!
Is it possible to make the labels Positive and Negative editable? Not all debate sides are necessarily just positive and negative. Thank you.
Trying this today for the first time and I do love it. I hope in the future there can be a means to determine the number of responses allowed per user/member of a team apart from identifying the number of maximum responses for a team. I guess the workaround I have for now is to provide instructions to the kids. Thanks again for this plugin.
Hi Jac, Thanks a lot for your feedback, I have added this in the plugin roadmap, having an edit feature, In this case, is a bit tricky, David from moodle also recommended having this feature. I will give it an investigation from the backend and UI perspective. Thanks again.
Hi, great plugin, many thx ! My students use it in a foreign language and I'd like, as a teacher, to be able to correct what they've written. If I'm not mistaken, I can only delete their post, not correct it. Would it be possible to add the feature? THX
Hi Filippo, debate response accepts text only at the moment, but I believe having the ability to add files and different components like audio and video will be a great addition. I will add this to the plugin roadmap.
