Moodle 4.0 Upgrade in Web Applications
Guys and Gals, who are using or supporting Moodle as the best free Learning Management System, PLEASE VOTE for this suggestion so Plesk can include the app update to Moodle version 4 or greater in the next versions of Plesk.
According to Plesk Obsidian's Documentation for Web Applications at https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/administrator-guide/website-management/websites-and-domains/web-applications.68973/ regarding "Updating Apps," by default, Plesk installs the latest available app versions and updates apps immediately once the newer versions are available.
However, this is not true because Plesk offered for the past year 2021, an outdated version 3.10.4 of the Moodle App. Recently Plesk released a Moodle update to version 3.10.10, for which the security support period ended on 9 May 2022 (see https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Roadmap for more details). For most people and their organizations, this is a major security risk.
It should not be a too complicated task for the Plesk developers to prepare an update for Moodle 4 since the latest release of Plesk Obsidian already meets Moodle's server requirements described at https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Moodle_4.0_release_notes#Server_requirements.
Hopefully, Plesk will consider this suggestion and start working on this request shortly.
Thank you all for your understanding!

Moodle is by far the most usede-learning and Learning Management platform with
Sites 147,381
Courses 48,761,718
Users 429,444,845
Enrolments 2,993,414,296It is great that it is an easy to install Application in plesk.
But your plesk only offer an outdated version (3.11.18).
The latest Moodle version is 4.5.1+.Please offer always the newest Moodle Version !
Data security reasons alone make this a must.
That should not be a big deal to implement.Thanks!

Hi team, Moodle is quite popular, people are asking.
Currently Moodle 3.x is only available in Plesk, this version is really obsolete, support ended in 2023. The current stable Moodle 4.5 version is LTS and Moodle 5.0 is coming. See https://moodledev.io/general/releases .
Can we expect that Moodle 4.5 and 5.x are added to Plesk? Would be great!Thanks very much in advance!!

Maybe someone from Plesk is reading this … it would be great. And, yes, pleas (always) the newest version.

I'm really interested in this feature. Providing support for an obsolete and unsupported version 3.x is worthless nowadays. Really hoping that support to install moodle 4.5 is scheduled soon.

Please, there is a lot of people waiting to that update. The Moodle version which comes with plesk right now is EOL and old and have several vulnerabilities.

Moodle version is 3.1.1 which is released on 11.07.2016 in Application Vault. Almost 6 years didn't update. I think it's time to update it.
