What's New in Moodle LMS 3.0.1
Highlights
- Moodle 3.0.1 is a special release outside of the normal release schedule. The main highlight is support of PHP 7.0. This is the new major version of the programming language Moodle is written in; it has significantly better performance but at the same time lots of changes in the engine. Please note that Moodle 2.9 will show errors if run on PHP 7.
