• Defined excluded hash fields and implemented legacy backup data conversion (MDL-83541).


• Fixed coding style issues and improved automated tests.

Changes in 2.2

• This version is compatible with Moodle 4.0 (and 3.11).


• There is a new type of 'text input' (showworking) that can be used within this question type. It is not a
  graded item, but rather an un-graded text box where you can ask students to 'show their working',
  or type anything else you ask them to.


• 'Clear incorrect responses' option added in 'Interactive with multiple tries' mode.


• What used to be referred to as 'Sub-questions' are now called 'Parts'. We thought that was clearer.


• Improved display of sample placeholders that you might want to copy on the editing form.


• Display of embedded multi-choice questions update to match the styling of the stand-alone
  versions of those question types, at least we did that once. I think Moodle core changed layout again,
  so we might need to redo this.


• If the student has not answered all parts of the question, the validation message they get is now clearer.

Changes in 2.1

• Fix layout issue for multiple choice choices.

Changes in 2.0

• Multiple-choice, single-response sub-questions are now available using the
  standard Moodle multiple choice question type.


• Multiple-choice (single or multiple) sub-questions now have an option for
  whether the choices should be numbered.


• Admins can control some default settings. The defaults start as:
  multiple-choice options should be shuffled and should not be numbered.


• The wording was changed to consistently use 'sub-question', not 'sub question'.


• Fixed a minor bug that happened when you tried to save an invalid question.


• Fixed the automated tests to pass on the latest Moodle version.

Changes in 1.9

• Usability improvements in the editing form for question authors.


• Fixes Moodle XML import with Moodle 3.6 and later.


• Fixes in the automated tests due to changes in the other question types used.


• Fix Behat tests to work with Moodle 3.8.

Changes in 1.8

• Fix a nasty bug where editing a question while duplicating it could break the original question.


• Fix Behat tests to work with Moodle 3.6.

Changes in 1.7

• Privacy API implementation.


• Uses HTML editor when editing choices for OU-multi-response subquestions.


• Better form error message if OU-multi-response subquestions does not have enough choices.


• Allows setting synonyms and convert characters options when editing pattern-match subquestions.


• Update to use the newer editor_ousupsub, instead of editor_supsub.


• Setup Travis-CI automated testing integration.


• Fix some automated tests to pass with newer versions of Moodle.


• Fix some coding style.


• Due to privacy API support, this version now only works in Moodle 3.4+
  For older Moodles, you will need to use a previous version of this plugin.
