Júlia, from the PX team, has suggested a few improvements to make it easier to
understand the Restore main page:
- Displaying a notification instead of the empty table when there are no files
in an area.
- Improve the copy, removing the help buttons and moving this information to the
main page.
- Replacing "Import a backup file" with "Upload a backup file".
- Adding some space between the different areas.
- Displaying a different text in the different "Manage backup files" buttons.
The backup/view.php page has been created to display the list of
course reuse actions available for users.
That way, the "Course reuse" option in the secondary navigation
will display this page instead of redirecting to the first action
available.
Apart from that, the headers for all the Course reuse actions have
been homogenised and the tertiary navigation selector has been included,
to replace headers and make it easier navigate between actions.
Create or update the breadcrumbs in the site administration
pages where it is required.
Highlight the corresponding site adminstration tab.
Highlight the primary nav to Site administration when user
is navigating to any of the site administration pages.
Also changed the boostnavbar so that the nodes in the secondary
navigation are not shown in the breadcrumbs when user is in site
administration page.
- Users without permission to download or restore won't see the
respective links.
- The 'Manage backup files' button for the 'automated' backup filearea
now requires the same permissions as downloading does for this filearea,
those being 'restore:userinfo' and 'backup:downloadfile'.
dirname() is a slow function compared with __DIR__ and using
'/../'. Moodle has a large number of legacy files that are included
each time a page loads and is not able to use an autoloader as it is
functional code. This allows those required includes to perform as
best as possible in this situation.
New PARAM_COMPONENT, PARAM_AREA and PARAM_PLUGIN + fixing of hopefully all current incorrect parameter types. This should help with diagnosing of incorrectly named 3rd party plugins too.
