Not sure if the hotpot module is converting ampersands correctly. $heading and $title are set up differently than in other modules: instead of outputting $course->title, a temporary $title variable is created and assigned that value. That made it difficult for me to decide whether it was already formatted elsewhere or not.
Also I didn't format_string() any of the variables included in $navigation rings, because I assume these strings get processed by print_navigation(), which includes format_string().
people who enrol in the course.
$course->defaultrole defines the value for each course for what role
should be used in the same case. Naturally it defaults to the site config
(when it is zero).
This role is retained even when the person editing the course settings
doesn't actually have that role in their list of assignable rights (however
they are prevented from actually switching to any such role themselves).
Note that enrol plugins are free to ignore these values and use whatever
roles they like. Generally, though, they should respect these settings.
The API was changed slightly so that has_capability now takes the
whole $context object (we almost always have it anyway)
The $kill thing was removed. If you want to assert a capability
then use:
require_capability('capname', $context);
with optional variables to modify the error message
Misc bugs here and there also removed and code tidied
=======================================
WARNING: DEV IS CURRENTLY VERY UNSTABLE.
This is a mega-checkin of the new Roles system. A lot of changes have
been made in core and modules.
Currently there are a lot of rough edges and known problems. We are
working hard on these .. .the reason for getting this into HEAD at this
stage is enable us to move faster (our branch was diverging from HEAD
too much).
Please keep an eye on http://docs.moodle.org/en/Roles for current status
and information for developers on how to use the new Roles system.
and admins can approve or reject pending courses.
Also, contains the ability to restrict activity modules on a per course basic. Strict config options:
enable restricting modules at ALL (for all courses, no courses, requested courses), what to do by default for newly created courses
as well as what modules to enable for above category by default.
This feature was created for the aim of building a community side to moodle - for institutes that have strict courses and enrolments, allowing normal users to request interest courses is a good feature,
but some modules may be redundant (assignment, lesson, quiz etc)
Please test!
The new constant is PAGE_COURSE_VIEW, and it's more streamlined with the
new CSS-related ids for 1.5. There are great possibilities for the future
here, so we 're getting ready.
On the other hand, this has to be the ugliest hack I 've ever inflicted
on any program (look at pagelib.php). Thankfully it will only stay for just
a little while.
I hope this time I got everything changed to the new Page interface! I 'm
really sorry for messing up and breaking new installations... :(
Also moved the only two functions of the API outside the page_base class.
--------------
Brand-new pagelib.php at your disposal! It slices, it dices, it makes your coffee.
It still doesn't understand women... Read the comments in pagelib.php for a first
impression. Feedback highly encouraged!
Blocks code has undergone significant changes to work with Pages. Flexibility is its
middle name, since I think (without having tried it) that adding e.g. a third
placeholder for "center" blocks in courses, with full support for moving around etc,
will now take about 15 lines of new or edited code. If you are not impressed yet, I
suggest watching a documentary on solar physics. :P
MINOR CHANGES:
--------------
Added instance_allow_config() in the blocks class hierarchy to supplement per-instance
configuration options. You can override it to return true and thus get configuration
amenities without allowing multiple instances.
Minor polishing to comments and documentation (whatever caught my eye was game).
Tightened up some code here and there by utilizing all the new features.
BUGFIXES:
---------
A bug in restore_execute.html caused hidden blocks to not be restored at all.
Code based on the work of Daryl Hawes for the blog module. Thanks, Daryl!
Please test the hell out of it as it's sure to have issues that need to be
ironed out.
These are the changes from MOODLE_13_STABLE, merged into trunk
The tag MOODLE_13_MERGED on the MOODLE_13_STABLE branch now refers to this point
The biggest changes here are the fixes for HTML editor in all standard modules
