Downgrading the Moodle plugin is possible, but it is risky and should be done carefully.

​
Before you downgrade

At minimum:
  • back up the plugin code
  • back up the plugin database tables
  • confirm the exact plugin version you want to return to
  • understand that data created after the upgrade may be lost during a rollback

​
Typical downgrade model

The older guidance for downgrading relied on:
  1. restoring the older plugin code
  2. updating stored plugin version values
  3. restoring backed-up database tables
  4. letting Moodle reconcile the database again

​
Strong recommendation

Do not attempt a downgrade first in production. Test the full rollback path in a staging environment before changing a live Moodle site.
