The methods core_courseformat\base::set_section_number() and
core_courseformat\base:: get_section_number() have been deprecated
and replaced by core_courseformat\base::set_sectionnum() and
core_courseformat\base::get_sectionnum().
The new methods use the null value when all the sections must be
displayed (instead of 0). That way, section 0, can be displayed on
a single page too.
The page course/section.php has been created, to display the content of a
single section. This page will only accept sectionid (to get rid of the
legacy sectionnumber).
Some features of this page:
- The General section won't be displayed anymore above the selected
section.
- In the main course page content, regardless of the Course layout ("All
sections on one page" vs "One section per page"), all the section names
will link to the new page (except when editing mode is on).
Most section related actions require the frontend to use alternative
strings depending on the format plugin lang file. This patch adds
overridden strings to the current setViewFormat course editor setup
object.
For legacy reasons, the course renderings uses a format setting to know
if the page is multiple sections per page or a single section per page.
This format specific dependency is not solved using a get_course_display
format method any plugin can extend.
