    Description

      In Moodle 3.11.8 (Moodle 3.11.8 (Build: 20220711) - the version I tested)  the BBB settings link on the "Manage activities" page (/admin/modules.php) fails . The "section" link available there is /admin/settings.php?section=modsettingbigbluebuttonbn

      resulting in:
       

      Section error!

      More information about this error
      Debug info:
      Error code: sectionerror
      Stack trace:

      • line 497 of /lib/setuplib.php: moodle_exception thrown
      • line 26 of /admin/settings.php: call to print_error()

       

      The same error occurs for both BBB 2.4.7 and 3.0.

       

      The workaround is to use the "category" link 

      /admin/category.php?category=modsettingbigbluebuttonbn

      found e.g. on the "Plugins overview" page ( /admin/plugins.php ).

      This "category" link works OK. 

      It would appear that a "section"link settings page would need to be (re)added to the BBB plugin (and the section heading to show on the BBB category page), or else that the link used on the "Manage activities" page would need to be changed to a working one.
