Hi Folks,

We are using Webpa through the Blackboard LTI LINK.

We have noticed that we cannot see any assignments from last year.

I have applied the bug fix outline below but this has not resolved the issue..

Has anyone got any ideas on what may be happening.

When you use the LTI you do not get the option to change the year in the location bar as you can do when going directly to webp.

When using the LTI it seems to see the module as a different module as compared to going in directly.

Thanks

Dave

Hi,

We had an academic year bug which sounds like that. We fixed it with a code change:

Best regards,

Stuart,

It certainly looks like a bug to me.

I think this question relates to Malcolm Murray's question from a couple of months ago about the academic years setting in WebPA. We're finding that we can't see WebPA assignment from academic year 2014-15 if we need to go back to review them. When I look in the 'Marked' tab of 'my assessments' the 'Academic year to display' option is set correctly to "2014/15". However if I look at the URL string the year is set to 2015 (y=2015). For 2014/15 I think this should read y=2014. Indeed, if I manually correct the URL string to 2014 then the assignment appears correctly.

Is this a bug within WebPA where the URL string is not detecting that the the academic year is set to 2014/15 (i.e. by default it always sets to the current academic year in the URL string)? I thought I'd pose the question to the group before I start tinkering about in the PHP.

Kind regards,
