• Option student_rolenames added. In case the system uses special names for users (instead of the default role name student), this setting can be used to configure the option. So far, the learners report was not able to show data in RWTHmoodle due to this.

Fixed

[0.6.1] - 2020-04-20

Thanks a lot to Jonathan Liebers who implemented the Postgres support and improved multiple SQL queries.

Fixed

• Support for Postgres added


• If a person is enrolled multiple times into a course, they are counted only once now.

Removed

• Removed notice in the UI introduced in version v0.7.3

[0.7.4] - 2020-05-15

Fixed

• Notice regarding reset of browser/OS report is also shown in test environment and when there is no data to show

[0.7.3] - 2020-05-13

Note: This version was released and tagged as v0.7.3 but accidentally marked as v0.8.0 in the version.php.

Fixed

• Clears browser_os logs (if upgraded) due to errors in the analysis (see logstore plugin)

Fixed

• Using format_string before displaying courses in learners report

Fixed

• Learners report uses option student_rolenames for calculating total number of students


• Added missing language keys for learners page

[0.7.0] - 2020-04-24

Added

• Option student_rolenames added. In case the system uses special names for users (instead of the default role name student), this setting can be used to configure the option. So far, the learners report was not able to show data in RWTHmoodle due to this.

Fixed

• Students are now able to filter by module type in activities report again

[0.6.1] - 2020-04-20

Removed

• Option allow_dashboard_compare is removed for now as it is currently in an unstable state.

[0.5.0] - 2020-04-03

Added

• Settings added: status and course_ids
  
  
  
  • status defines in which courses the Learning Analytics UI is linked/shown

Changed

• If the lanalytics logstore is disabled and the default status option is selected, no UI will be linked/shown.

    whether the Learning Analytics link should be shown in the navigation. If the option is selected, the plugin will add a customfield
    to the course settings, so that teachers can enable/disable the setting on their own.
