Scott - set the 'Updates by' setting to 'Student and teacher', then make sure the non-editing teacher has capability 'mod/checklist:updateother'. That should do what you are wanting.
First let me say, as many others have, I love this checklist. I am using Moodle in a professional setting for corporate training. I am wanting to use this for our new employee orientation. I would like to have the non-editing teacher (the supervisor in this case) and the student (the new employee) have to complete the checklist. For the new employee, they complete the modules within the course which automatically updates the checklist. Then the non-editing teacher would have to go in and check off as well that they have reviewed the items with the new employee. Is this a possibility? I have been looking left and right for this. Either it can't or I am blind and am just missing it. Thanks
Hi Francois,
I've looked in the past at creating a mobile version of the checklist plugin. It should be possible, but it looks like it might well take a few days to complete. I don't have a couple of spare days of my own time to put into this, but if someone was able to pay for it, then I could certainly get it done during my usual working day.

Hi,
Do you know when this plugin will be available for the mobile?
Most of the students use their phone to connect to the platform.
Slight changes like "ticking a box" are really made for "on mobile experience" instead of browser / desktop connection.
For now, here is what I get on mobile:
----------------------
Uh oh!
Your organisation installed a plugin that is not yet supported.
Contact the site administrator and tell them you want to use this activity with the Moodle Mobile App.
You can stil use it using your device's web browser.
[Open in browser]
-----------------------
I have been in the admin mobile features section, but checklist doesn't appear in the module list (or have I missed it?)
Thanks for your help.
Regards
François
Hi Maria, if you set the checklist to 'teacher only' then students are no longer able to check-off their items and the teacher's mark will be represented as an image of a box (either empty, or with a tick or cross, depending on what mark the teacher has added).
Hello. Let me start of that this plugin is great! I really enjoy using it, but I am having a problem. For one of my checklists, the check boxes have now turned into images of squares. They are not clickable. The thing is only one of my checklists is doing this, all the others work fine. Does anyone know what I should do fix it?
Natalie - this plugin has worked with every version of Moodle since 1.9 - it certainly worked fine with Moodle 3.2, last time I checked (although there is always a possibility that I've changed something and accidentally broken compatibility with that version), so you'll have to be a bit more specific about the problem, in order for me to fix it.
Doesn't work with moodle 3.2 sad
Thanks for letting me know - I thought I'd already published the relevant version of mod_checklist, but clearly not. It's there now.
I was updating the checklist block and system was asking for new version of checklist mod. The moodle.org still had the older version of checklist mod and I had to get it from the github site. When will the moodle.org will have the latest version of checklist mod?
Thank you.
Hi Manesh - you don't need to send me a private message, as well as posting on here, I will get the message either way.
This is not a feature that the Moodle plugin supports directly. It would be possible to change the code and add a setting to control this (because I could imagine many situations in which automatically unchecking the student's checkbox would not be wanted).
It probably isn't a big job to do (just a few lines of code), but I'm unlikely to have any spare evenings to do this in the near future (if this is something you have a budget for, then I could possibly undertake it during my day job at Moodle Partner Synergy Learning).

Hello Davo,
I am not sure but this may be a feature request, when a teacher marks the checklist for a student as "No" - is it possible that the check is automatically removed from the student's end [so that the student does not have to uncheck and check again]

Shirley - the gradebook can be updated by the checklist, but it only gets a % of the items checked-off. There is no way (at the moment), to give a grade for each item (to then aggregate it as the final grade). Ultimately that is a feature that could be added, but would require development time. As an aside - feel free to catch me at the Moodle Moot, before the end of tomorrow smile
Hello, I just watched your Demo and your second scenario for Teacher only marking is close to what I need, I need the Teacher role to check-off, comment and grade each item within a checklist. We use checklists to do observational assessments of a student's skill level and each item is graded. The accumulated score for the checklist would be a gradebook activity.
Does you plugin provide the ability to grade/rate a student within the checklist?
Alaa, yes it should be fairly easy to add a search bar. I am not generally adding new features to this plugin, mostly I am just fixing compatibility issues during upgrades. I would be happy to review a well-written patch for this feature or discuss a quote to undertake the work.
