turnitin / moodle-plagiarism_turnitinsim Goto Github PK

I'm running Moodle 4.3, which produces a warning saying the modal_factory has been deprecated (but it should still work). I'm running the latest release of turnitinsim under the Boost theme.
Whenever a user tries to display the EULA, there is a JavaScript error in the console saying the above, and clicking on the "show me the eula" link appears to do nothing.
There is no way therefore to accept the EULA.

Is there a quick fix please?

Thanks!
Jules.

Hi,

Just tried to upgrade from 2020092301 (pre-predecessor version) to the2021030201 (actual version) .

Notice: we did not upgrade to the last version, because of the bug reported here.

As we usually do, we started the upgrade over admin/cli/upgrade.php, which is now broken because of the following error:

[vagrant@moodle public_html]$ php admin/cli/upgrade.php

The upgrade goes well via user interface

We see this in our log files (PHP 8.0, Moodle 4.2.2)

What it's doing is calling the quiz_attempt::create function and sending the uniqueid of the quiz instead of the id.

I'm going to go ahead and fix this and submit a pull request as we cannot wait for you guys to do it.

Hello,

We have updated plagiarism_turnitinsim in Moodle 3.9 from version 2021011801 to version 2021030901 now we cannot see any Turnitin icons leading to similarity reports in "file submission" row anymore, seems like a bug.

After installing the 3/3/2021 updated plugin students are no longer able to upload a file as part of an assignment submission if the assignment was posted with a file attachment from the teacher.

Steps to replicate:
Create an assignment as a teacher, post assignment with an attachment, or access an existing assignment that has an attachment
Switch to student
Upload a file for submission to the assignment
The "save changes" button will not function.

Issue appeared immediately after installation of the updated plugin

Hi,
We would like to make default settings for the plugin that will be used for each new assignment.

• It is possible to make a preselection under "Generate Similarity Reports", but this does not apply to the other elements.

• For the other elements, it is only possible to set defaults when Turnitin has been activated for all assignments. However, we cannot use that, because not all assignments should be checked with Turnitin. Turnitin should be activated manually for each assignment.

It would therefore be very helpful for us if there were the possibility to set Turnitin default settings (see screenshot) without activating Turnitin for all courses.

Many thanks and best regards
Maria

We are using Moodle 3.7.2+ (Build 20190920)

The Turnitin plugin is configured correctly and enabled across all our Moodle instances. We use the same API key and URL across the board (same integration).

We have a Moodle instance that houses our master shells or courses that are backed up and restored to our production Moodle instances.
The master shells have Turnitin enabled for all assignment activities. The new iterations do not carry over the activity settings for Turnitin from one Moodle instance to another. The plugin needs to be manually enabled for all assignment activities for each new course (iteration). This is not scalable.

Is there a way we can retain Turnitin as enabled on assignment activities when restoring?

Hi!
I installed the latest plugin on my site and when I click on settings in plugin overview section, it takes me to https://my.moodle.site/settings.php which gives a 404 error as such page doesn't exist. Generally all the other plugins call for settings.php at admin/settings.php with some parameter.

Kindly look into it.

in an assignment activity, teachers can upload files as feedback on the files already submitted (and graded)
If Turnitin is enabled in the assignment activity, these feedback files are also checked for plagiarism, which makes no sense.

These files should be excluded from plagiarism checking.

Plugin version: v1.2 2021030901

Going to a course > Edit course completion > Select 'Default Activity Completion' > Pick an assignment activity and click 'Edit'

This error appears:

Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: JavaScript collection has already been started.

We have a situation where a student has been getting low percentage scores on their discussion posts but receiving 100% AI scores. Professors aren't going into the Turnitin Reports to review the AI score because there is no warning on the assignment or discussion pages letting professors know there is an issue. We'd love to see a second score under student content that indicates the AI score as we are highly concerned with AI usage and cheating. Is this possible to add to the plugin?
