Scheduler

Hi Henning,
we offer your Plugin Scheduler to allow our students to book their meetings with teachers during projects and assignments. So, we got some feedback from our teachers lately, that it would be great if they could give a short justification when forced to cancel an appointment during the process of cancellation and which would be sent with the notification. Maybe we missed it and it is already there – in this case we would be thankful for a hint. Otherwise it may be a feature for further development?
Thanks a lot!

Can this module support Mobile moodle platform?

@Howard: See CONTRIB-7308 .

Can this be extended to support the new Privacy API please?

@Nadine, this will have to do with your permission settings. Probably you have customized the student role. See here for the required permissions: https://docs.moodle.org/34/en/Scheduler_Module_capabilities#Student_side

@Albert, no, i don't think so, not at the moment. What setting are you using in other contexts (e.g. participant lists) to hide the e-mail address from teachers?

Why when I'm connected as a student I have a message saying that guests can't view this activity. Normally, in this situation I can view, and do, any activity in the course but schedule not.

Hi Henning, nice tool. Can I prevent teachers seeing students' email addresses? Thanks.

@David, thanks for mentioning this - there is indeed a bug, I'm tracking this as CONTRIB-7222 (see there foe updates).

@Valery, long time no see! The WS API was something on my long-term to-do list. I am always happy to consider contributions, although I can't promise to integrate them (it really depends what the code looks like, whether it's of wider interest, etc.). If you like, open an issue in the tracker and link a github branch, once your work is finished.

Hi Henning,
I have a little problem.
When I put a file link in Booking form and student-supplied data, like instructions and other info, but students see this URL, http://site.com/mod/scheduler/@@PLUGINFILE@@/blablabla.pdf and it is no a vali link -> NOT FOUND.
Any idea? Just happen there....
Thank you

Hi Henning,
A little suggestion for next version maybe. It would be nice to be allowed to set preferred export format in site config. Many users export data to use them inside excel but don't change the default export format. When files contain accents, they get weird characters in Excel.

Hi Henning, longtime no exchanged... how are you going ? i am asked by a customer to complete the scheduler with moodle WS, covering the essential crude questions about scheduler instances, slotsand appointement. Would you be ok for integrating the resulting externallib.php and db/services.php files in the scheduler distribution ?
Cheers !

Hi Henning,
Our teachers love the scheduler plugin a lot. They use this plugin to let students to book online tutorials. There's one issue if you could help to solve, it will be really great. When teachers add slots, the system will automatically save the location when the teacher inputs at the first time. Then this location will be the default location for that teacher. But the location will be changed frequently. If the teacher forget to change the default location, students will go to the wrong room. The teachers prefer to have the location field be blank. Can you help with this? Many thanks.
Best wishes,
Lina
