Imagine having to fix the school's Moodle yourself.

Warning
They took down Moodle right before our 2022 HSC Trial exams, so this is now useless.
To access the files I have managed to save from Moodle, please visit abu-co/CHS-Moodle-Archive.

Due to a recent migration of the school's intranet, heaps of stuff broke.

One of the most significant problems is that the school's Moodle is quite broken.
Possibly due to some misconfiguration, one could barely access it at home.

As a feeble attempt to recover some of Moodle's features,
this chromium extension makes necessary changes to the browser, including:

  • Forcing the correct URI scheme to be used where necessary (e.g. HTTP)
  • Mapping old URLs to new ones through chromium's built-in redirection feature

However, this patch is extremely unstable; it is by no means a reliable solution to this persistent issue.

Let's just hope somebody actually fixes Moodle before we all graduate.

Note
Moodle is mostly working when you are connected to the school's Wi-Fi. Therefore, this extension is not needed if you only access it at school.

Installation

I really can't be bothered to put this up onto the Chrome Web Store.

Therefore, in order to install this extension, please refer to Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge's official guides on loading unpacked extensions. This extension should also work on other Chromium-based browsers.

This also means that you might want to check out this page yourself once in a while and manually update the extension (i.e. delete the old extension and add the new one) if a newer release is published.

Tips

  • The easiest way to install this is to download this repository as a ZIP file and unzip the content into a folder,
    then load the folder as an unpacked extension.
    • A repository can be downloaded by clicking on <> Code and selecting the Download ZIP option in the menu.
  • After installing the extension, you may (or may not) have to restart the browser or even the computer for it to take effect.
  • It is normal for pages to take a long time to load when accessing Moodle outside school.
  • It is also normal to see error popups. Just close them.
