      1. Get a backup of a quiz from Moodle 2.2 or earlier.

      2. Go to Admin -> Plugins -> Activity modules -> Quiz and set When time expires to Open attempts are submitted automatically.

      3. Restore the backup. Make sure that, in the settings for the restored quiz, When time expires is set to Open attempts are submitted automatically.

      4. Create a quiz in your up-to-date Moodle, with When time expires is set to Attempts must be submitted before time expires, or they are not counted.

      5. Backup that quiz, and restore it, and verify that the When time expires settings has been copied accurately.

      Description

      Since 2.2 does not have a quiz overduehandling setting, 2.2 course backups do not contain the setting. When restoring a 2.2 course backup into a 2.4 instance, the restore process should apply the site-level default for the overduehandling setting, but it does not. Instead, it always leaves it at the database default, which is to abandon late submissions.

      I will attach a patch shortly.
