New Moodle LAE Releases for 2.5.9, 2.6.6, 2.7.3
There are three new CLAMP releases. There are no new LAE features; these are maintenance releases only. The 2.7 and 2.6 include an updated version of the CLAMPMail block. Please note that the 2.6 and 2.7 releases include important changes to Quickmail and Filtered Course List. We highly encourage you to read those posts before installing the 2.6 or 2.7 release. We anticipate removing “old” Quickmail in 2.8.
You can download the updates from their project pages:
- Moodle 2.7.3+Liberal Arts Edition 7.0.2
- Moodle 2.6.6+Liberal Arts Edition 6.0.5
- Moodle 2.5.9+Liberal Arts Edition 5.2.6
We anticipate releasing a beta LAE version of Moodle 2.8.1 in the next couple weeks. The next stable releases on the 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 branches are slated for January 18.
