The Moodle Tracker is our database for recording and managing all Moodle development issues - bugs (problems with the software), improvements and feature requests.

Searching for an issue

Before creating a new issue, please try searching to check whether it been reported previously.

  • Enter a phrase, such as an error message in the 'Quick Search' box at the top right of the page.
  • If the search returns lots of results, click the 'Updated' column heading so that the most recent issues are displayed first.
  • To refine your search, click on 'Moodle' as the project in the left column, then click the 'Refresh search' link below. You can then select particular components or versions as appropriate.

Reporting an issue

To report or comment on an issue, you'll need to create an account and then login.

  • First check whether the issue has been reported previously by doing a search.
  • If you find an issue which appears to relate to your issue, feel free to add a comment providing further information.
  • Otherwise, please report the issue by clicking the 'Create Issue' link at the top right of the page.
  • Select 'Moodle' as the project and an appropriate issue type then click the 'Create' button.
  • Complete the required fields (as denoted by a *) and any other fields as you wish, then click the 'Create' button.

Receiving email notification of issue updates

To receive email notification of updates to any issue, you can add yourself as a watcher.

  • First make sure that you are logged in to the tracker.
  • Click the 'Watch' link on the right of the issue page.

Note: If you report an issue, you will automatically receive email notification of updates, so there is no need to add yourself as a watcher.
