Learning Tools

Hi,
This plugin is quite impressive!
I have a quick question— I couldn't find an option to display when the exam will start. Is it possible to make this information accessible only within the quiz, rather than displaying it everywhere?

Just a quick note: the current version of Learning Tools works fine on 4.5 – we have updated the plugin since then.

Hi Stefan. Congrats. Amazing plugin.
Do you have plans to support moodle 4.5? Due to the update of Fontawesome, it unfortunately no longer displays the icons.

Hiya - have tested this plugin on my beta site and very excited by the notes function! Just wondering if there is functionality for students to be able to download all their notes? Thanks!
Best,
Catherine.

Hi Vincent, glad you like it! In the plugin's general settings, you can enable/disabled each tool separately. Also, there are capabilities for each tool, so you can control which roles have access to which tool. Hope this helps! Stefan

Hello Stefan
Great tool! A quick question. We want to use the note feature but not the others. They are. not useful in our environment. Is there a way to hide the other features via CSS or via a setting of the plugin ? Thank you in advance

I discovered that the script for the Learning Tools is targeting the footer element in the HTML to write the code. If you are using a different theme than boost, there is a good chance that your theme might not have the element. To remedy, one thing you could do is go to the Appearance > Additional HTML and paste in an empty footer tag in the code before the body closes. Did the trick for me. If your Adaptable theme is having issues - it is possible the profile page has the 'footer' tag and the other pages do not.

I am also facing exactly the same problem. The problem is only with Adaptable Theme, have no idea if this the theme or settings within theme. Would love to know more about the solution.

Hi, we love this plug-in, but on Moodle 4.1.3 in the Adaptable theme it only displays and functions properly for the admin and refuses to display for the student role except for on one page: the user profile page. The minute the student user navigates away to any other page it disappears. This is mind-boggling. I would think that if it were a theme compatibility issue it wouldn't work at all for anyone. I was wondering if anyone might know why this is the case and maybe how we might resolve as we really want to be able to use this plugin for our students. Thanks for any help!

Hi! I've been having some problems with this plugin. The icons are a little right-sided. Additionally, it cracks when the language is changed to Spanish, the "ñ" is not visible

Morning Elizmarié,
We’ve discussed this internally. It’s not as easy as it seems, but it is indeed possible. In order to implement it, we would need some funding for it though. If you’re able/interested, please reach out privately and we can discuss it.
Best
Stefan

Hi Elizmarié,
glad you like our Learning Tools! Currently, Learning Tools is not compatible with the mobile app (as you already found out). Adding support for note taking (and bookmarking) in the app would indeed make sense. I'll check with my team if our floating action button interface is something that can be implemented in the app, and how much effort it would be.
All the best
Stefan

Good day Stefan,
Thank you for developing the Learning Tools plugin. I am sure its functionality will be very useful to our proposed students.
I wanted to check whether there is any chance of it being updated to be functional on the Moodle app? We will promote it to learners mainly for its note-taking capability and it would be much appreciated if that particular function (at least) could be available on the app too.
Looking forward to receiving your feedback.
With thanks and kind regards,
Elizmarié

hey Stefan,
I saw that a tiny rest is open for German language and wanted to contribute by following the link: You can see the available translations here:
https://moodle.org/plugins/local_learningtools/translations
When I try to contribute to German, I run into a set of errors:
Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: Url parameters values can not be arrays!
Debug info:
Error code: codingerror
Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: Url parameters values can not be arrays!
I am not sure, if it is right to address you with that?
Many greetings, Tanja

Hi Stefan,
Sorry to bug you. I would like to send my screenshots. I'll try GitHub...
Another question... Will it be possible to use this nice tool with the Moodle App?
Kind regards
Kenneth
