Course format not compatible with moodle 4.4 #45

Open lassnj opened 1 month ago

lassnj commented 1 month ago

Hi, thanks for this awesome course format. We recently upgraded to Moodle 4.4 and unfortunately, the format is not compatible anymore.

We get the following error message when we try to open a course in this format: Exception - Failed opening required '[dirroot]/course/format/topics/renderer.php' (include_path='[dirroot]/lib/pear:.:/usr/share/php')

This is because the course/format/topics/renderer.php file is required by: https://github.com/brandaorodrigo/moodle-format_buttons/blob/14821e821e839631180d8b33ed87000ce9b3f421/renderer.php#L28

Which has run into final deprecation by moodle: https://github.com/moodle/moodle/blob/d559cde424aad74cb9a5cd864fbd4f3f6ba5da15/course/format/upgrade.txt#L20-L56

Could you fix this please? Thanks a lot!

We have the same issue, and since there is no remedy, we have removed the plugin all together. When the issue is fixed and tested, we will maybe implement it. Also happened after Moodle 4.2 > 4.4 upgrade.
