Install WirisQuizzes for Moodle
Reading time: 1minIn this section, you will find the requirements and a complete guide about installing WirisQuizzes on Moodle platform.
Download WirisQuizzes for Moodle
Requirements
WirisQuizzes versions from 4.0 upwards are compatible with Moodle 3 and Moodle 4. Older versions of WirisQuizzes are also compatible with Moodle 2, and you only need to select your corresponding version on the download page.
Note
For the best experience, we strongly recommend using a Moodle version currently supported by Moodle.
To successfully download and install the WirisQuizzes Moodle plugin you will need to have administrator permissions.
Installation
To install the WirisQuizzes Moodle plugin, you will need to follow the instructions below:
Copy files: Unzip local_wirisquizzes_moodle40_xxxx.xx.xx.xx.zip
and copy the content of the file into the folder local under the root of Moodle.
Install the plugin: Since WirisQuizzes is a Moodle plugin, it will automatically start the installation after the files are copied into the correct folder. If the installation doesn't start, go to the Moodle Home Page or Site administration > Notifications page.
Check that all is OK: The best way to check all is working as expected is just to make a question, save and display it. Additionally, there is an info page at {MOODLE_URL}/question/type/wq/info.php
. Please send a complete description and screenshots of the issue to support if there is an issue.
Additional settings
If the number of concurrent users using WirisQuizzes is higher than 20, we recommend you uncomment (removing the leading ";") and change the value of the variable quizzes.maxconnections
to -1 in your WirisQuizzes configuration located at {MOODLE_URL}/question/type/wq/quizzes/configuration.ini
.
Please note that the maximum number of concurrent connections is the maximum number of requests (i.e. generate random variables) that are sent from your Moodle to our servers exactly at the same time. It is important to note that the number of students that can simultaneously take a quiz is always higher than this value. Besides, take into account this value must be lower than Apache MaxRequestWorkers
(or MaxClients
) divided by 4.
Note
If {MOODLE_URL}/question/type/wq/quizzes/configuration.ini
doesn't exist, create it by copying {MOODLE_URL}/question/type/wq/quizzes/configuration.ini.dist
.
