Just overwrite the meta enrolment plugin as I said. Moodle will upgrade the plugin by visiting /admin/ and the blank roles will be fixed in the next cronjob.

I solved it by downloading moodle devel from Skodak mirror here: https://github.com/skodak/moodle/zipball/master Just overwrite your 2.2.1 moodle/enrol/meta folder with skodak's version and do the upgrade. On the next cronjob everything will be fixed. Do a full file and database backup before do this. I had the same problem.

]]> Comment on Turnitin and Moodle by dan http://danmarsden.com/blog/2010/10/27/turnitin-and-moodle-2/comment-page-1/#comment-10123 dan Fri, 29 Oct 2010 22:38:16 +0000 http://danmarsden.com/blog/?p=142#comment-10123 Thanks Leigh - I'm aware that many students object to the use of Turnitin (there's a lot of press coverage about this too) - but this is really an institutional decision - the site admin would need to "enable it" - I'm hesitant to use my own free time to add it based on student feedback or from people who disagree with the use of Turnitin - these people are unlikely to be able to make the decision to allow students to opt-out within their institution as this is more likely to be an internal policy decision (these people are also probably unable to fund my time to add the option) - I wonder anyone might actually use the feature too? - I certainly haven't heard from any institutions using this integration that want it (yet). Of course - if an institution does contact me and asks for the option to be added (and has the funding) I'd be happy to add it - or if their own internal development team makes the changes and submits a patch, I'd be happy to review that too! thanks for the feedback!
