Versions & Manuals

This page contains our user manuals for the various CMS/LMS/VLE integrations, the API implementation manual, and release notes for each CMS/LMS/VLE version we currently support.

Moodle Integration Versions

Turnitin supports several versions of the Moodle CMS/LMS/VLE platform. All release notes relating to the Moodle CMS versions are listed below by clicking on the expand link next to the version you are currently using. All known issues will be listed and updated by our Dev team frequently.

Moodle Version
Turnitin Version
Release Notes
Moodle 1.9+
Tii v2.2.0

Changes in version 2.2.0:

  1. removal of the tem (teacher email) field from being sent over for all the plugins
  2. change in code so that the filling out of assignment information in creating/modifying is now done on the Turnitin side instead of the Moodle side

Version 2.0.4:

  1. Intermittent issue with receiving an error screen and message saying "Assignment not found" upon paper submission to a Turnitin Assignment should be addressed. It is an error in the web service call - now it tries to look up the assignment with a more reliable ID and will do it redundantly, trying both methods if one of the lookup methods fail.
  2. Issue with isadmin() and isteacher() not working properly - those functions have been deprecated and now uses the has_capability() to determine role
  3. Turnitin Assignment and Moodle Gradebook compatibility with Moodle 1.9 and later; creating Turnitin Assignments will now again add a column to the gradebook, and grading through the Turnitin Assignment inbox screen will transfer the grades to the gradebook as well.
  4. Breadcrumb bars on Turnitin Assignment related pages cleaned up and made more accurate.
  5. Creating Turnitin Assignments with other assignments in the same course that are hidden should work properly

Known issues:

  1. When creating a Turnitin Assignment, if you select a specific "Grade category" for the corresponding gradebook column to go under, it does not put the gradebook column in that category, it puts it in the general area, and that setting is not saved in the assignment
  2. When changing the total number of points available for a Turnitin Assignment that has submissions that have already been graded, and the value is lowered below grades that have been assigned, the grades for those submissions will be set to the max possible score rather than scaled accordingly. Behavior differs between Moodle 1.9 and Moodle 1.9.2+
Moodle 1.8+ but before 1.9
Tii v2.1.0

Changes in version 2.1.0:

  1. removal of the tem (teacher email) field from being sent over for all the plugins
  2. change in code so that the filling out of assignment information in creating/modifying is now done on the Turnitin side instead of the Moodle side

Version 2.0.2:

  1. Breadcrumb bars on Turnitin Assignment related pages cleaned up and made more accurate.
  2. Creating Turnitin Assignments with other assignments in the same course that are hidden should work properly now.
Moodle before 1.8
Tii v1.0.9

Changes in version 1.0.9:

  1. removal of the tem (teacher email) field from being sent over for all the plugins
  2. fixed an issue with the plugin with Moodle 1.6 where a function that was used was not defined in Moodle 1.6

Version 1.0.8:

  1. Creating Turnitin Assignments with other assignments in the same course that are hidden should work properly now.
