The course activities overview shows the section name under each
activity. However, this information should not be present when the
course format does not support sections.
The course overview page can represent a table with the overview
integration implemented by the activity plugins. Each plugin
table is loaded as a fragment to optimize the course overview
loading time.
The course overview page allows plugins to implementa an
activity overview integration. This commit adds all the
base classes for the integration, and also the "resources"
integration used by default in all plugins considered
resources like url, file, folder...
The current completion button has specific templates only for the course
view page. However, from now on this component may be used in other
places and it needs a main template to be rendered in a standard way.
Now there is course/format/update.php all course actions menus must
point to the new one instead of keep pointing at the course/view.php and
course/mod.php.
Since Moodle 4.0, most course edit actions can be executed using the
core_courseformat_course_edit webservice using only four parameters
(courseid, ids, targetsectionid and targetcmid). However, some actions
logic is still replicated and embed in course/view.php and
course/mod.php files since the beginning of time. Now the
course/update.php offers a non-ajax way of executing the same actions
and replace the old replicated ways of doing the same.
As part of the course format cleanup epic, all course editor action menu
output classes needs to be refactored to be more mantainable and
reusable. Also, it added notes for the final deprecation of many lines
of code in Moodle 6.0.
The string "sectionname" was an unnecessary coupling between
formats and other plugins. Now the generic name for a section
should be obtained using $format->get_generic_section_name.
This allow formats to use an alternative string for nameing
sections. This is especially important for rare formats like
the frontpage one that does not have a plugin lang file.
In the course index the course modules links had incorrenct "href" (only the anchor) when
being displayed in a page different than course page. This patch regenerates the href for
cms in the course index when needed.
