Could you please help me with this? 1. Course mode: "no separate groups." I create sessions for all course participants in the Attendance module. Calendar events are created successfully. 2. I switch the course mode to "separate groups." I create sessions in the Attendance module, but they do not get added to the calendar. I am a member of a group, I have course creator permissions, and the settings have been verified.
What could be the issue?
I would really appreciate your help.
Please, does this Plugin support automatic marking?. I just want the student attendance to be marked present upon login and engaging with the Lessons. If yes, does it need any Cron to function and what are the settings to enable not disable?
@Jaqueline, unfortunately the ability to clear a status is not currently available within this plugin as reported here: https://github.com/danmarsden/moodle-mod_attendance/issues/284 - if you have internal development capabilities, pull requests to improve the plugin are always welcome.
Hello Moodle Community,I'm experiencing a critical issue with the Attendance plugin that affects attendance management on my educational platform.
PROBLEM: After marking a student as "Present" or "Absent" in a session, I cannot unmark/remove that marking to return the student to "No marking" status.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a known solution?
I appreciate any help!
I could not find where the status set is (I only have "add session" in the menu. Nothing else). Moreover, I set up rolling QR codes. When students flash the QR codes, it opens Moodle app and they need to sign in, but after signing in, the rolling QR code is deemed expired (it rolls every 15s) and every time they flash the new QR code, they are asked to sign in again...
@Tony this is the wrong place to report issues. Please report any issues into the github issues tracker.
so replace line 477 in lib.php:
if (!$file = $fs->get_file_by_hash(sha1($fullpath)) || $file->is_directory()) {
with below:
$file = $fs->get_file_by_hash(sha1($fullpath));
if (!$file || $file->is_directory()) {
fixed my issue.
the multimedia inserted into description, they cannot be displayed with error "The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported."
I am wondering if there is a way to change how the attendance plugin reports to the course gradebook. The way it currently works, it is reporting the total attendance points for the entire course, and simply adjusting based on the percentage of the recorded sessions. Would it be possible to have an option to show the score as only the total number of taken sessions and that point total/percentage? The points equals (taken sessions percentage) * (total points available), with the total points available being what the score then is out of. The percentage = (total points percentage). What we would like is to instead show only the ratios and percentages of the taken sessions.
For example, if I have 10 sessions each worth 5 points, the current gradebook points end up being out of 50. If two sessions are taken (earned points equals 8), then you would see 40/50 (80%) in the gradebook. What we would like to see instead is 8/10 (80%), so that the course total points only registers with how many points have actually been accumulated. Is this something that is possible?
@Kathleen yes, the attendance plugin supports the mobile app. You can see which plugins support the app by looking for the mobile app support badge shown above. To see the full list of supported plugins go here: https://moodle.org/plugins/browse.php?list=award&id=6
Hello, is there a published or developed a version compatible with the mobile app? Many thanks.
preciso que os responsaveis vejam a presença dos filhos (alunos do curso). tem como?
@Jusinoi - there is only 9 registered moodle sites running 5.1 that have the attendance plugin installed and I haven't received any 5.1 specific reports in the issues tracker yet, but you are best to test and report any issues to the github issues tracker.
Does this module support Moodle's latest version, which is Moodle 5.1?
hello @dan
We are using the Attendance plugin in courses with separate groups. We would like to know if it is possible to download a report that shows the attendance records (including times) of a single user across all the groups they have been part of during the course.
Currently, when we export the report, we only see the records for the group the user is currently assigned to. However, in some cases, a user starts in one group and later gets reassigned to another group, so part of their history is missing in the report.
Is there any way to generate or configure the report so that it includes the full attendance history of the user across different groups within the same course?
Thank you in advance!
