Secondary nav previously had to be in my_plugin\local\views\secondary; this
location continues to work but is deprecated. The new location is
my_plugin\navigation\views\secondary.
A new method, get_unaddable_by_theme_block_types(), has been added to
block_manager class to let themes define, using the unaddableblocks
theme setting, the blocks that won't be displayed in the "Add a block"
list.
For now, only the boost theme uses it, to disable some of the blocks,
like settings, navigation, course_list and section_links (they are still
required for classic).
This was broken by changes in fdd5aef0, as the sesskey URL parameter
was required on admin/index.php in order for block related actions
to be performed uninterrupted by any redirections.
The following blocks have been removed from the Dashboard:
- Online users
- Upcoming events
- Learning plans
- Recently accessed courses
This change will only apply on new installations.
The new recordset support for Postgres requires transactions and
will cause errors if recordsets are not closed correctly. This
commit fixes problems that were identified during unit tests, and
via some basic code analysis, across all core code. Most of these
are incorrect usage of recordset (forgetting to close them).
There are 2 kinds of blocks that are undeletable. Those required by the
theme and those protected via the admin page ui. We only want the theme
ones to be auto created site wide if they don't exist - so we need to
rename the theme ones and split the logic.
problem 1: links to blocks permissions changes were missing in boost
problem 2: when modifying link from dashboard user is returned to profile ('returnurl' passed but not respected)
problem 3: link to check permissions missing from category management page
fix: instead of respecting both 'return' and 'returnurl' parameter use only 'returnurl'
fix: use 'popup' layout when modifying permissions for a block
Now if the current theme requires some blocks that don't exist, they
will be created - but with a new flag that indicates this block should
only be returned if the current theme requires it. This allows flipping back
and forth between boost and clean without restoring the nav and settings blocks
in boost.
