Shika 1.2.6 is here with two brand new features and minor bug fixes!

We’ve done back to back releases of Shika in the last few days - v1.2.5 which was a bug fix and security release and 1.2.6 which fixes a few bugs and introduces 2 new features.

As our endeavour, our security team is continuously trying to make Techjoomla products safer. We recommend you upgrade to the latest version as soon as possible.

Read on for the features and detailed changelog.

Features

Jtext support for question bank fields.

This is a customer request change which allows you to use JText in Questions and Question options. This means you can easily do multilingual quizzes with Shika. While it is not the ideal approach that we will go for in the longer term. It is a nice hack that you can use now!

Added unique ID field in the question bank

A lot of times you might get question banks that are off the shelf or you might be maintaining them elsewhere before using them in the LMS. You can either choose to enter your own or the system will auto-generate one for you.
