Waitlist enrolment
Maintained by
Flotter Totte, emeneo Plugins
If students enrol via the enrolment plugin "Waitlist & Custom course fields" they are put into a waitlist in case the maximum amount of course participants is reached. They later get enrolled automatically as soon as free seats are available.
The plugin also can be used to add custom course fields.

If you are able to make a fix for yourself, you can contribute back the fix to the maintainer and the community there ^^
I have no IT expertise so this instruction is very challenging to me. How do I fix this?
Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: get_extra_user_fields() has been removed. Please use the \core_user\fields API instead.
when try to view waitlist users as an admin
i am using moodle 4.3 , php8.1
It works fine when changing the course size to a specific value (e.g. 10 -> 12), but as mentioned above when changing it to infinite (e.g. 10 -> 0), users on the wait list remain stuck.
If you could point me the way on where to check in the code (having issues finding the cron job you mentioned), we would try to come up with a solution to this issue.
I just wanted to report on two bugs I’ve stumbled upon (Waitlist version: 3.5-h; Moodle version 3.5.8):
1. Changing the available seats in a course to a specific value (e.g. 32) and back to infinite (=0) won’t enroll users who were previously on the waitlist. They remain stuck on the waitlist.
2. When using 2 or more waitlists for a single course as enrollment methods, users can only enter the password of the top waitlist.
Kind regards
