Talk:Activity Locking

Purpose of page

I think others have an idea, but some of us are confused about what is what. I am going through the condiditional activity forum to track what has been posted. I started with the summary of Alvin Shaffer - Wednesday, 21 June 2006, 08:18 AM as the outline. Comments placed here are out of context and were made by others in the forum threads listed below. I would like to see the link to the best versions 1.5.3 and 1.6 versions of AL placed on the article page.--Chris collman 2 19:13, 23 June 2006 (WST)

AL 3.0 is conditional based vs AL 2.1 being more straight forward AL based.

Forum Threads

These threads link to the Conditional Activity forum.

• AL v2.1-M1.6 titled Activity Locking v2.1 (for Moodle 1.6)

• AL v3.0-DD titled NEW research on CONDITIONAL ACTIVITIES in Moodle
• AL v2.1 LALR titled Latest Activity Locking Release started 19 October 2005

Releases

There seem to be several flavors of AL. v1 and v2 seemed to be started by Stuart Mayer. Then Stuart and David Delgado worked independently on v3. There are v2 and v3 for 1.5 and for 1.6.

AL v2.1(stuart) - released by Stuart on Dec. 1, 2005 - Not a lot of success by forum (not sure if this version is based on pure AL or conditionals)

AL v2.1(benard) - released by Bernard on June 21st, 2006. A hack of the Block installer based AL (I think 2.1). So far in testing this version seams to work in 1.6 , just not sure what features from Jons Hack are not included (as Chardelle alluded to).

AL v3.0(stuart) - Modified files to try to hack AL ver 3.0 for 1.6 released by Chardelle on June 15th, 2006 - (Stuart released Ver 3.0 AL for 1.5.X code) not a working version due to the quiz module changes and other issues (hopefully stuart is working on a 1.6 version)
