            Description

            Create an essay question with no feedback or general feedback. Previewing or attempting the quiz leads to a blank page. PHP error indicates:

            Fatal error: Call to undefined method question_essay_qtype::extra_answer_fields() in /srv/www/htdocs/moodle_19/question/type/questiontype.php on line 440

            extra_answer_fields() is NOT defined anywhere in this class or in any of its children classes. extra_question_fields(), however, is defined.

                  I just noticed this bug as well when doing a backup of a course with quizzes.
                  Apparently, the following three lines were deleted by mistake at line 104 in question/type/questiontype.php :

                  function extra_answer_fields()

                  { return null; }

                  I've just added them back in, and everything seems to work fine.

                  Nicholas, you have a comment above saying 'fixed', but the bug is not actually resolved as fixed. Then there are the other comments. So I am confused. Can you help me. Thanks.
