Moodle released version 3.9.16 ahead of schedule to address an important security issue. While we understand that many of our clients may have upgraded to Moodle 3.9.15 in very recent weeks, we strongly suggest that you update your production servers with this new release for security reasons.

Even though 3.9.16 was released earlier than anticipated, both Moodle and Dual Code will maintain the regular maintenance schedule and another release (3.9.17) will be available in mid September.

Course Fees Containing Commas May Result in Wrong Fee Being Charged (Bug Fix)

If the fee for a course entered by an instructor contains commas, some Payment Card Providers (PCP) do not interpret it correctly. For example, a fee of $1,200 interpreted may be interpreted as $1.20. As part of the software fix, all enrollment fees are now standardized (without any commas) before they are being passed to the PCP.

Resizing the Logos in the OCI Library (Improvement)
