Description

« Hide

When you create a new chat, if you enable groups of any kind, it seems to break the chat module for that instance. It seems to enable groups, but then when you go to the chat, it doesn't give a link to open the chat and you cannot revert the changes in the chat settings once you've set groups to on.

It seems as though the call to setup_and_print_groups is not getting the current group. What should I be using for this call then?

The entire line is actually (around line 90):

$currentgroup = setup_and_print_groups($course, $groupmode, "view.php?id=$cm->id");

Anyone having this issue?? I know you've all been busy with Moodle 1.9, so it's understandable, but does anyone have any time to look at this? I'll give access as needed. Thanks.

Hi, Chris, I changed my group mode to "visible group", but your report couldn't be reproduced, did I miss something? Can you please explain further?

Do you have groups enabled on the course level too? I think he even forced the groups in the course settings. I apologize. I don't have all the answers I should. It's been a while now, and I've since adapted PHPFreeChat for our use.

It doesn't look like others have reported this issue... and it would seem common-point to have groups and use chat. That almost makes me feel like no one else has this issue (which happens sometimes of course).

If you still can't reproduce it... I'm willing to declare it a fluke on my install.

I followed chris' settings, but cannot reproduce this issue, so close it now, if you find any problem, feel free to reopen.
