 Description  « Hide
Hello,

I have been working on 3 new courses that each have 5-6 Lesson activities created from scratch. After adding the content pages, I returned to edit mode to fix a few links and began experiencing a serious issue with extra pages manifesting within the lesson.

When attempting to edit a lesson page, I was unexpectedly sent to the Login page, then back to the lesson (but not Edit mode), where I received an error about "Unseen questions within a Cluster being used..." Upon examining the page list after this error, I discovered extra empty pages had been added to the Lesson by Moodle (4 empty pages for each of my originals). Going back to Edit mode causes them to duplicate again. With only a few clicks, there are nearly 60 new empty pages added to the Lesson, which require a time-consuming manual deletion.

This issue did not occur when building the lesson, but later as it was edited. It was replicated in multiple courses, lessons & users in a clean install of Moodle 1.9.3 Build 20081015. No feedback from full debug mode either.

I can not find any information on this issue in the Tracker or Fix list, so I documented the process below. The numbers correspond with the attached screenshots.
__________________________
PROCESS:
1. Lesson Preview - displays 1 of 4 original lesson pages
    Click Edit tab
2. Collapsed Page List (4 orig. pages)
    Click Expanded link
3. Expanded Page List (4 orig. pages)
    Click Edit icon above page 2
4. Login Screen
    Click Log In
5. Page 2 - Error message: "An Unseen question within a Cluster jump or an Unseen question within a branch jump is being used in this lesson. The Next Page jump will be used instead. Login as a student to test these jumps."
    Click Edit tab
6. Collapsed Page List
    (4 orig. pages, PLUS 5 Cluster pages, 4 End of Branch pages, 4 End of Cluster pages)
    Click Edit icon next to page 3
7. Login Screen
    Click Log In
8. Page 2 - Error message: "An Unseen question within a Cluster jump or an Unseen question within a branch jump is being used in this lesson. The Next Page jump will be used instead. Login as a student to test these jumps."
    Click Edit tab
9. Collapsed Page List
    (4 orig. pages, PLUS 20+ Cluster pages, 16+ End of Branch pages, 16+ End of Cluster pages)
Repeat steps for more empty pages to delete!
