There is no current capability to do that. It might be possible to do it with CSS, but I have not current plans to do that, partly for accessibility for reasons.
Hi, i really love this plugin, powerful and easy to use. But can gapfil disable the typing feature on asnwer column of the drag and drop mode? so the student only can do drag and drop to the column and not typing the answer in there
thank you
That is how it works on the mobile app and I considered modifying the browser version to do the same but decided it was more work than I wanted to do.
"Instead of dragging answers into gaps, the answer will be clicked to select and then a gap will be clicked to drop into"
I can do this on mobile phone browser
My apologies for this error, and thank you for your feedback. I hope to release the updated version within the next 24 hours.
Yes it's this issue. Thanks a lot for your work.
Hi Julia, you may be experiencing the issue reported here https://github.com/marcusgreen/moodle-qtype_gapfill/issues/62. I anticipate releasing a new version of the plugin in the very near future.
Sorry I can't write HTML code : it's div class answeroptions (auto-closed).
Hi, first sorry for my approximative english. We use Gapfill (last release) in moodle 3.9.
We have an HTML problem (with several theme) when we add a gapfill in a test.
I investigated and find a "div" auto-closed :
... in the gapfill question part.
It seems to me that is the origin of our HTML problem.
Does that remind you of something ? If i'm not wrong, is it possible to fix it ?
Thanks a lot and sorry if you notice that my investigation is finally wrong,
Julia
That is not enough information to comment, what message did you get?
I get validation error but my site is Moodle 3.1?
A new column was introduced to the main table within the last few releases, and it looks like your installation does not have it.

Post is in the quiz forum "GapFill with Latex"
Could you post an example in the quiz forum. I don't quite understand your question. It will not allow LaTex to be used for the answer for gaps which is mentioned in the documentation here https://docs.moodle.org/38/en/Gapfill_question_type#Extended_Characters.
