[Ravi Kumar]

HI i receive this error when i edit a course and change the topics format to etask. Exception - syntax error, unexpected '?', expecting variable (T_VARIABLE)

Debug info: Error code: generalexceptionmessage Stack trace: line 295 of /course/format/etask/renderer.php: ParseError thrown

it seems PHP is not upgraded to version 7.* on the client server for eTask 3.3 for Moodle 3.4 - I will check the issue on my side if PHP7 support is not required in Moodle 3.3 and older

[Ravi Kumar]

hello, The php version on the server is 7.0.27. http://prntscr.com/ijsvvv moodle version is 3.4 http://prntscr.com/ijsvoz not sure how to check eTask version. but it seems to be the latest code from the repo.

Ok, thx, I will check it during the day :)

Hi, PHP 7.1 is required - so you can upgrade to PHP7.1 or u can wait till tomorrow and i will fix it :) M.

[Ravi Kumar]

sure, i will wait.. thanks.. if it doesn't work after your fix, then i will upgrade to php7.1 Thank you very much for looking into it.

Hi Ravi, ok, finally I downgrade the code to support PHP7.0, try it please 3.3 (Moodle 3.4) (2018022800) https://moodle.org/plugins/pluginversions.php?plugin=format_etask
