Checklist

Hi Davo,
Are you looking to integrate this plugin in to the moodle app?
Thanks,
Matt

Hello Davo,
Thank's for your great plugin. Question : would it be possible to add a check box ☑ Number list automatically ? The ability to number tasks would make it easier for teachers to refer to them.

Hi Michelle,
Do you mean like: https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=gradeexport_checklist - but rewritten to output CSV instead of Excel?
I'm sure that wouldn't be a huge amount of code to write, but I'm unlikely to undertake it in my free time, so it would be dependent on patch being provided or someone willing to pay for the time to develop it.

Any chance there might be support for the export of data for a .csv file?

Thanks Davo. I have reached out to Synergy Learning - no harm in getting a quote.

Hi Andrew - I don't have a particular roadmap of new features for this plugin. I maintain it in my spare time and make sure it keeps working with all new Moodle releases, but I'm not actively developing new features for it.
If you were looking to pay for any new development, then my first suggestion would be to contact my employers, Synergy Learning, for a quote, as I'd be more than happy to undertake such features as part of my working day (and then maintain them alongside my usual updates, when new Moodle versions are released).
On a technical level, a filter sounds like a good suggestion - there is already some code for embedding a progress bar into the block plugin, but I'd probably want to look at adjusting the checklist code in order to output a checklist in a format that would make sense to embed (the existing output code within mod_checklist was originally written 12 years ago and I'd not write it the same way if I was starting again now).

Hi Davo - this is a popular plugin in our institution. One reasonably common feature request is that checklists can be embedded in a section e.g. as part of a Label resource - possibility as a custom filter for example. Has this come up before and/or is this on the roadmap? If we were to consider developing this ourselves (via Catalyst) would you have any suggestions or recommendations and would you be open to working with them?
Thanks,
Andrew (Massey University, New Zealand)

Hi Ridhima - which particular feature are you asking about?
Or are you asking will the checklist plugin work with Moodle 4.0? The development version of the plugin was fully compatible with Moodle 4.0 when I last tested it a month ago - https://github.com/davosmith/moodle-checklist/runs/4907257156?check_suite_focus=true - but until the final version of Moodle 4.0 is released, it is impossible to say for certain that there won't be any last minute changes that will break some plugins (although it is unlikely).

Hi. Will this feature be available in Moodle 4.0?

Mayteck,
I'm afraid I am not aware of LearnDash. From a quick search it doesn't appear to be a free, open source system, so I don't have access to it to write plugins, even if I wanted to.

Hello, Davo,
I'm part of an e-learning ecosystem. We wonder if you have develop something similar to this plugin but for LearnDash - Wordpress. Thanks!

Thanks Davo, that will actually be perfect for what I need

Not off the top of my head - you could do a course reset and just reset that checklist activity, but it would reset it for everyone on the course, not just for yourself.

Is there any way of resetting your personal checks? I would like to check off topics I have covered with students as we go through. However it appears if I was to train this course to a new set of students (after the first have completed the course) there is no way of re-setting my own checkboxes en mass.

Each (required) item on the list is worth the same amount, with the total scaled to be out of the specified maximum.
It wouldn't work to make the score per item be based on the linked activity, as items do not have to be linked to an activity (and not all activities have a grade anyway).
