FastTest PlugIn
FastTest PlugIn helps create the most used Moodle question types. All the fields to be filled in are shown on a single screen (for each type of question). Most of your time will be spent thinking and writing the questions. Once you have written them in the plugin, the XML file is generated, just by pressing a button. To upload the question bank in Moodle, you only have to import the XML file to the platform. All the videos are in Spanish, but most of them have subtitles. You can turn on automatic translation.

local_autologoutguest
There is a usability black hole in Moodle: A site has autologinguest A user visits a course with guest enrolment enabled The user is auto logged in as guest - they have no knowledge of this happening The user now visits a course that does not have guest enrolment enabled The user becomes confused, they do not understand the concept of having logged in as a guest, they have an account they have not logged in with but do not understand the process of logging out and in again They contact support... This plugin intervenes at stage 4 - the user is silently logged out of the guest account and redirected to the login screen.
