Duplicate entries and other things in Progress report
-
Hello
I have come across an interesting problem with Cluevo’s recording of SCORM information.
As I was testing some SCORM modules, I noticed that for some reason the number of attempts for modules, reported in the progress section of the cluevo reports, was not increasing despite redoing the module at various times. I spent a long time investigating this and discovered that this was because the modules were set wth the CLuevo settings to “Let user decide whether to resume or start a new attempt”. For some reason, though (maybe because of my lesson structure) the choice of whether to continue with the previous attempt or begin a new attempt was almost never given.One solution to this problem was to choose the following cluevo option: “Always start new attempts”. While this works ok and generates new attempts, it actually records TWO new attempts for each iteration of the module. This can be verified by looking at the Cluevo progress report. Two rows were simultaneously created in the database. On further investigation, it turns out that BOTH rows are created when the module is loaded. When the module is first loaded, both entries are identical When the module is completed, the SECOND row is modified and looks like attempt #14 in the attached file.
Unfortunately, this information is both misleading and doubles the amount of space needed to store it.
I have tried to investigate the problem by disabling all plugins. I have also created a brand new WP website with NO plugins running other than the 3 Cluevo plugins. The problem remains with both the “Always start new attempts setting” and the “Let user decide…” settings. Is this a problem with Cluevo or with me? (I would prefer it to be a problem with me but it seems to happen even with the modules provided in the Cluevo demo).
Thank you dor your assistance
