Assignment submission: auto-submission of draft assignments.

In Moodle 2.7 there is now a default setting, which will automatically submit your assignment for marking, if you have forgotten to click the Submit for marking button.

After an assignment’s due date and time has passed, any assignments that are still in draft mode (i.e. you have not  yet submitted the assignment for marking) will be auto-submitted on your behalf. 

This action will occur only once for an assignment at the due date/time.  If you are submitting an assignment after the due date/time has passed, then you will still need to click the Submit for marking button as normal.

Note: no submissions including automatically submitted by Moodle will be reverted to the draft after the due date.
