Hi,
How can I change the decimal separator from a point to a comma?
Hello,
will there be a 3.4 Version of this Plugin?
Best regards
Sebastian
Thanks, Charles.
I tested the plugin on moodle 3.3 and it works.
Hi all,
Please let me know which version can work fine with moodle 3.3?
I am pretty sure that this question type dose work with 3.2. I suggest you test it. However the Behat tests need to be udpated before they will pass. I need to transfer the fixes from the OU's code base, and I don't have time to do that right now.
Do you plan to support moodle 3.2 and 3.3 and so on?
Unfortunately, we don't plan to do this. The handling of . and , in the standard Numerical question type is not ideal, and has caused many subtle problems over the years, so I am wary of copying it.
This question type was created by and for the Open University, which only teaches in English, so we don't need this ourselves. This reduces the change the change would ever by made (but it is not completely impossible).
We have started to experiment with this plugin and we noticed that the decimal and thousand separator are hard coded into the plugin code rather than getting them from the Moodle language file. Do you plan to change this behaviour?
Thanks! That's what I needed!! I've got my first one in.
Hi,
I read the I found-- which is a moodle quiz that shows what the questions look like on the front end. That shows me that this is the (likely) the type of question I would like to create. But it doesn't tell me how to create them.
I'm looking for documentation that explains how to create a question. An simple example showing
* a possible question (example: what is x+(2x)^2 where y=2x or something like that)
* what sorts of things to put in boxes
all on the admin side is what I'm hoping for.
That must exist. Where can I find that? (Or what search terms can I use.)
I'm hoping to move on to "combined" once I know whether I need wild cards { }.
OK, so there is an issue here. Noted.
Hi ,
Yes, I tried to purge caches.
I tested the plug-in to a new Moodle installation, with default configuration and default theme, and I had the same problem
Hmm. It seems to be working for me on my test site.
There are a few changes I need to publish to the plugins DB, which I have not done yet, but I don't think they would affect this.
Have you tried the ususal things, like 'Purge all caches'?
