Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.4 available for download

Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.4 is available for download. This is a security release that backports fixes from Moodle 1.9.10 to Moodle 1.9.9. It supersedes the Moodle 1.9.9+LAEv1.1.1 and LAE v1.1.2 releases. It also incorporates a number of bug fixes and new features developed at Hack/Doc Fest VII at Furman University, and fixes a bug with TinyMCE 3.x that was introduced in LAE 1.1.2.

Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.3 Pending [update]

CLAMP will soon be releasing Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.3, which fixes an issue with TinyMCE not displaying in text fields. We hope to have this release out by the 1/28/2011.

The fix for this problem is straight forward and involves updating a few lines of /lib/editor/tinymce.js.php; details can be found in this Redmine Development thread.

Update: We’ve released Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.4, which fixes this problem. We skipped over 1.1.3 for strictly logistical reasons.

Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.2 Beta 1

CLAMP is pleased to announce the release of Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.2 Beta 1. This is a beta release meant for testing only; it is not recommended for use on production systems.

  • Code freeze was 5 p.m., Friday,  January 7, 2011
  • Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.2 Beta 1 was released Tuesday, January 11, 2011
  • Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.2 Final Release is scheduled for Wednesday, January 19, 2011

This version of the LAE incorporates a number of bug fixes developed at Moodle Hack/Doc Fest at Furman University in January, 2011. We need help testing these fixes and verifying that they work for you. Feedback can be added as comments on this post or sent to Ken Newquist at newquisk@lafayette.edu.

The Development Committee will be meeting at 2 p.m. EST on Tuesday, January 17 to review any comments and give the go-ahead for the final release.

Note: We will be releasing a beta of Moodle 1.9.10+LAEv1.2 in late January which folds in the 1.9.10 upgrades from Moodle core. However, we recommend that people use the 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.2 release in their production Moodle instances (this release includes security fixes backported from Moodle 1.9.10) because we will not have had time to fully test the 1.9.10 code before the start of the spring semester.
