Previous operation was update all moodle fields from the external database
during each login & sync ignoring this setting. Now if this setting is
'oncreation' then the field is only copied once (on creation of user).
* Extended set_config()
* Implemented get_config() which takes over $CFG loading in setup.php
* admin/auth.php has special handling if post vars starting in pluginconfig_
* admin/auth.php print_auth_lock_options() prints a form fragment -- being called from most plugins now
* user/edit.php follows the new convention when locking down fields, both javascript UI and on POST.
* admin/auth: More solid checking for auth GET/POST var.
* admin/auth: print_auth_lock_options() now handles user field mapping options for LDAP and similar modules
* admin/auth: user mapping options have moved to config_plugins table
* auth/ldap module has migrated to using new field mapping vars -- simplified config.html a lot
* auth settings migration to config_plugins
exposes the wide array of authentication possibilities.
Authentication now has it's own page separate from other variables.
Most of this work was done by Petri Asikainen <paca@sci.fi>, who started
these changes off.
I've done some cleanups and additions which is why I'm checking it in.
It's all working pretty well at the moment but could use some testing.
Thanks, Petri! :-)
