Attendance

@Dirceu - This plugin has been around much longer than the "attendance register" plugin.
According to the "attendance register" plugin description the "Attendance Register.. automatically calculates time spent online in Moodle's courses" and is different to the "attendance" plugin (this plugin.) - I don't personally know anything about it. The screenshots on that plugin entry might help you to see what it does.
This plugin allows you to track attendance values like Present/Absent/Late against a specified time/date/session. You can enable automatic marking, student self-marking or manual teacher marking.
For further questions about the plugin please use the community forums on moodle.org. (or install the plugins and try them out to see if they meet your needs.)

Hello, is this module a continuation of attendance register? What is the difference between the two modules? Thank you for cooperating with us all.

Kenan - by default, students can only record attendance while the session is open - you must also enable self recording in the individual sessions - for more help, please use the attendance forum instead of asking questions on the comments here: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=741

I allowed Self enrollment in my course and checked the "Allow students to record own attendance" block when setting up the activity module. However, "Self Enrolled" students are unable to "Record own attendance".
Any specific setting that I need for this process to go through?
Thanks...

Hi Verónica, each issue/feature request should be added as individual issues in the tracker here: https://github.com/danmarsden/moodle-mod_attendance/issues thanks.

Dear, thank you very much for this useful plugin. Some suggestions:
- Please, can you add the email field to export the attendance?
- That the text can be modified in the help on username, adding it to the help of this plugin.
- On line 207 of the file export.php ($ myxls = $ workbook-> add_worksheet ('Attendances');) I should say something like this: $ myxls = $ workbook-> add_worksheet (get_string ('modulenameplural', 'attendance'));
From already thank you very much.
Best regards.
Verónica.

you can view a specific students attendance for all courses on their user profile under the course overview reports but an easy export is not currently available - you could probably do this using the ad-hoc sql reporting or configurable reports plugins though.

Hello,
thank you for this great plug-in.our student may enroll in the different courses, is it possible to export a student's all courses attendance record in a file?
thanks

Hi @Lee Hensley, this is an issue with your server setup rather than with the plugin. To get help with this error you should post in the Moodle Support forums: https://moodle.org/

Hi, this might just what I am looking for but when I try to install it through the Moodle plugins site it throws this error : There is a request to install plugin Attendance (mod_attendance) version 2016121322 from the Moodle Plugins directory on this site. However, the plugin installation pre-check failed (reason code: remoteunavailable).
First time for me to see this error so I do not know what it means or how to fix it so I can install the plug in. Thank you in advanced for any advice you could give me. Moodle 3.3 is the moodle version

@Gabriel - there is a site-wide summary report that you can access by going to admin > plugins > attendance but it shows average attendance of each course rather than by student. There are a few custom reporting plugins like the configurable_reports block that would allow you to write your own reports though.

Hello,
thank you for this great plug-in. I have a question about reporting the attendance of all students school-wide. I can only find the possibility to report at course level. Is there a way to report school-wide (in one report)?

@Sakshi - by default students can only mark their session while a session is open. There is a site-level setting that allows you to change this "studentscanmarksessiontime" under admin > plugins > attendance. For further help please use the discussion forum rather than the comments here: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=741

Hello ,
I am using Attendance module in Moodle 3.2.1+ (Build: 20170112) . When I set "Allow students to record own attendance" in student view submit attendance button is missing an dthey can't mark their own attendance. Only teachers have the option to take it.
