Static Pages

Firstly, I am new to Moodle, so my question may be a bit stupid . I am using Moodle 3.0 and installed this plugin (Release v3.0-r2) and add pages like aboutus.html, contact.html and faq.html as instructed.
I am hopeful that I will be able to get the link like this www.mydomain/static/aboutus.html. BUT I got page error. Did I missed out something? What will be my url?

Thanks for your reply and instruction. I'll install this plugin when upgrading moodle 3 in the future.

Hi Phuong,
> So how can I install your plugin in moodle 2.9? Just remove the line starting with $plugin->requires from version.php?
Yes, I already said that above
But note that you do this at your own risk. I think the Moodle 3.0 version will run well on Moodle 2.9, but I won't guarantee anything.
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Thanks for your reply. I'm using moodle 2.9.4+, not quite old version. I don't upgrade to moodle 3 because my favorite plugins aren't supported in moodle 3. So how can I install your plugin in moodle 2.9? Just remove the line starting with $plugin->requires from version.php?
With kind regards,

Phuong,
there was a multitude of questions like yours in the past about our plugin.
With the release of the plugin for Moodle 3.0, we changed the way the plugin works - away from a filesystem based storage in Moodledata to a filearea which can be filled in the Moodle GUI. This change should solve most of the obstacles users were facing.
Now your question is targeted at the older versions of the plugin which we cannot support anymore. Please check out the version for Moodle 3.0. If you don't have Moodle 3.0 yet, you can remove the line starting with $plugin->requires from version.php and install it in legacy versions at your own risk.
Thanks,
Alex

Hi guys,
After reading README, I'm really confused; I don't know what to do. Can I get it right? Install the plugin like any other plugin to folder
/local/staticpage, then create html file called faq.html for example and upload it to /local/staticpage. Why in README it says: "The document directory /var/www/files/moodledata/staticpage contains the files foo.bar and faq.html". I'm really confused. Is anyone kind enough to instruct me step by step? I know I'm wrong (wrong configuration) because it says; "The document directory doesn't exist, therefore there are no static pages to be delivered." but I don't know which step I'm wrong?
Many thanks in advance,

Great plugin. Thank you.

I'm back with some feedback: I uninstalled the plugin, and reinstalled it manually (by copying the files to the local folder using ftp). It works fine now.
I first installed the plugin by dragging and dropping the zip file into the MOODLE 3.0 interface; maybe there's something wrong there.

Thanks, clemens, for your comment about 3.0. Great to hear that it works there.
Bob, perhaps then there is a basic problem with your installation which is not related to the Moodle version. Anyway, please submit your bug report in Github for analysis.

Hi,
In fact works fine. In my case, I need to adapt to my hosting. I just added :
RewriteBase /
and modify the Rewrite Rule.
Thanks again for your plug-in. I use to "Site policy" + "FAQ" + "course information".

Hi,
Thanks for your plug-in.
In my case, I just try this plugin in Moodle 3.0. It's work well but I can't use RewriteEngine in my case. Not sure there's a link with version of Moodle.
best regards.

Hi Bob,
I'm sorry that there are problems in 3.0 for you.
Yes, we plan to release updates, but testing and development has not started yet due to our internal release cycle.
Would you mind describe your problem in a ticket on https://github.com/moodleuulm/moodle-local_staticpage/issues so I can have a deeper look at it?
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alexander, great plugin! However version 2.9 doesn't seem to be working properly in MOODLE 3.0
Do you have any plans to release an update?

Hi Simon,
I have to admit that I have no idea what you mean with "Moodle container"...
Alex

Alexander - what I am trying to do is to create html pages using static page that post within the Moodle container - rather than as an open page outside the container. I am not sure if Static Page is designed for this - but humbly ask if you can help me.
