Using slash arguments

From MoodleDocs


The slasharguments setting is intended mostly for diagnostic purposes and we strongly recommend this setting should be always enabled. If you disable this slasharguments setting, many Moodle features will not work properly, such as:

  • SCORM packages.
  • Relative links in embedded pages.
  • Add-ons and plugins.
  • Images.

If you disable slasharguments setting and embedded images start to be displayed it means that the server is not properly configured.

Another very common problem reported on support forums about slasharguments:
