Scheduler

Hi, thanks for this very useful plugin.
Unfortunately, we have encountered some bugs with slots suddenly disappearing, so we have discovered that not all the tasks one does as a teacher are recorded in the log database.
Therefore I have 2 questions
- Do you have an explanation for the missing logs?
- Is there a way to limit the ability to revoke students (we think this is the root of our problem)?
see below for details:

Hi, scheduler plugin is not working in Moodle Mobile App. I would like to be able to use it inside the App, any suggestions?
Thanks Nancy

Hi Henning
Thanks for the new version. After installing the master branch from Github we noticed a bug with files (uploaded files cannot be opened) : https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/CONTRIB-9214
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks,
Sébastien

Hi Henning,
1. Thanks for developing and maintaining one of my favorite plugins, and I don't say/write it to every developer
2. Can you estimate when the Moodle 4.1 version of the plugin would be released?
3. Do you plan to include in the Moodle 4 release a new version of the plugin icon, that would be in line with the core activities/resources icons?

A 4.x version is in preparation - in fact, if you try the "master" branch from github, it should already work.
On the other hand, the 3.11 version of Scheduler should also work on 4.x up to some display issues (for example, missing icons).

Hi Henning,
our lecturers really love this plugin - now we are planning Moodle 4 upgrade for march 2023... Is it possible to keep on using the 3.11 Version of the scheduler on Moodle 4 - or is there a 4.0 (or 4.1) version coming soon?
Thank you + kind regards
Katja

Hey everyone, we were asked if there would be the possibility to add a calender integration - if we create a pull request would it be merged? Thank you!

Hi
I am running Moodle V4. Is this plugin compatible. If not, will you be providing an update and if so, by when?

Hi Henning,
Thanks for the very useful plugin. I'm passing on a query I received from one of my colleagues. Their question concerns the way group slots are displayed on the Appointments screens. Currently these display the group name, followed by the group members' names in square brackets. My colleague would like it if the slot only displayed the group name. It would be useful if there was a setting that could toggle whether the group members' names are displayed in this way.

Hi there,
I get a deprecated warning in some pages of the scheduler plugin.
user_picture::fields() is deprecated. Please use the \core_user\fields API instead.
line 256 of /lib/outputcomponents.php: call to debugging()
line 111 of /mod/scheduler/datelist.php: call to user_picture::fields()
line 86 of /mod/scheduler/view.php: call to include()
Can this be fixed?
Regards

Moodle 4.0.* apparently already prints the title and description (if not empty). If you drop the code in renderer.php, function mod_into, it works as expected. (not sure if you can query the Moodle version there, as you want to leave the contact working for 3.*...)

The plugin works for me under Moodle 4.0.4, but it repeats the information of title / name and description of the activity. So if you have a "Make an appointment" instance with a description of "Each Monday at 8-12", you will see "Make an appointment - Each Monday at 8-12" twice below each other (of course, in a nicer format than possible here).

To hide students email addresses from all teachers, change the code (lines 49 to 52) of /moodle/mod/scheduler/customlib.php as follows (for example):
if (get_config('mod_scheduler', 'showemailplain')) {
$emailfield->title = get_string('email');
}
else {
$emailfield->title = get_string('idnumber');
}
if ($user) {
if (get_config('mod_scheduler', 'showemailplain')) {
$emailfield->value = obfuscate_mailto($user->email);
}
else {
$emailfield->value = obfuscate_mailto($user->idnumber);
}

Hi - Does this plugin work for Moodle 4.0? It seems like I was able to install it, but I can't find where to add it to my site. I tried Dashboard > Edit mode > Add blocks but I don't see it in the list of blocks. Can someone please assist?

Any timeline for when it'll be compatible with Moodle 4.0? It currently can't be used in the mobile app at all, as it gives an error message.
