Facetoface

Premium Certified Partner
Maintained by Dan Marsden, Catalyst IT
Face-to-face activities are used to keep track of in-person (e.g. classroom) trainings which require advance booking. Each activity is offered in one or more identical sessions. These sessions can be given over multiple days. Reminder messages are sent to users and their managers a few days before the session is scheduled to start. Confirmation messages are sent when users sign-up for a session or cancel. This module may be of interest to administrators looking for a way to provide event management support for blended learning environments.

Installed on my Moodle2.6, but when a student tried to sign-up, it says no 'You are currently not assigned to a manager in the system.' Tried to create a manager role, but still can't sign-up.
Is there a release date for a version of face to face for Moodle 2.5 and/or 2.6?
Thanks Stacey! Glad I could help. If I find anything else I put it in the tracker and post a link for people to find it. Enjoy the Holidays!
Hi Dave,
Thanks for reporting that. I've had a quick test with the module in 2.6 and it seems to work okay as well but will possibly suffer from the same issue. I'll try and fix this as soon as possible.
Apologies for the delay so far though, Christmas and New Year rush and all smile I'll try and provide some updates soon though. If any more issues are found please feel free to report issues on the tracker for this. I'm going to try and go through some of the open ones there in the new year.
Thanks,
Stacey
I think I have it working in 2.5. So far the only issue I've found is an error when adding people to a session.
Had to change lines 3230 - 3231 from
$DB->delete_records('event', array('name' => $shortname, 'userid' => $userid,
'instance' => $session->facetoface, 'eventtype' => 'facetofacesession'));
to
$select = "name = '{$shortname}'
AND userid = {$userid}
AND instance = {$session->facetoface}
AND eventtype = 'facetofacesession'";
$DB->delete_records_select('event', $select);
Any chance of this working in 2.5?
Hi, facetoface is very good but will there be a version for Moodle 2.5 and/or 2.6 ? Thnaks
Just a quick note that Stacey Walker has taken over as the lead maintainer of this plugin. Many thanks to Alastair for his work in contributing and maintaining this plugin. Peace - Anthony
I have a question: A student told me that when she adds the calendar reminder (Outlook .ics file) to her calendar, it's set to "Private" and she cannot change it. Any ideas? Suggestions? I really want this to work out, but if they cannot change the privacy settings, I think a lot of people are going to be unhappy.
Love this tool! The only thing we have come across is if we change a date to an existing session, the participants don't get an update iCal attachment sent to them. Any thoughts?
The spanish-for-Mexico translation of the face to face plugin is now 100% complete.
