Two Moodle blocks being retired (Mass Actions and Jump To Navigation)

The Mass Actions block and Jump To Navigation block will become unavailable to you in Moodle on Monday 6 September.

Why is the Mass Actions block being retired?

This is a heavily used block that offers helpful functionality. Unfortunately it no longer works in Moodle following the recent upgrade. Should an updated version of the block become available in future that is compatible with Moodle 3.9, we intend to reinstate this block.

Why is the Jump To Navigation block being retired?

This block is most often found in older courses/modules and has become legacy. It is no longer being developed because the functionality it offers has been superseded by other standard features and functions available in Moodle. It will be uninstalled from our Moodle environment.

What should I do if I am using these blocks?

If you have either block installed in a course/module, please feel free to delete it ahead of time. It is a good idea to do this with the Mass Actions block in particular, as editors in your course/module may get confused if they try to use it and find it doesn’t work. Otherwise, you can wait for the blocks to disappear automatically when we retire them on the change date.
