The Flash Player was deprecated in 2017 and officially discontinued
on 31 December 2020, so media_swf player has been completely
removed from Moodle core.
* When completion tracking is not enabled for the course, it does not
make sense for the course's showcompletionconditions setting to
be set according to the default value indicated by the
"moodlecourse | showcompletionconditions" admin setting. Setting
showcompletionconditions as enabled when completion tracking is disabled
makes even less sense. So in such a case, we should not be setting a
default value for showcompletionconditions and allow it to be null.
* When the course is edited and completion tracking is enabled, this
also would set the "Show completion conditions" field to default to the
value set in the "moodlecourse | showcompletionconditions" admin
setting.
The machinery to fix orphaned calendar events that were broken by MDL-67494.
The solution consists of:
1) Upgrade step that checks if this site has executed the problematic upgrade steps and
if positive, it will schedule a new run for calendar_fix_orphaned_events adhoc task.
2) Adhoc task that will self-spawn calling the recovery machinery, running until
all the orphaned calendar events are fixed. It also sets the maximum runtime of
60 seconds. It is also possible to override that number by specifing the desired
number setting the ->calendareventsmaxseconds in your config.php
3) CLI script that will look for all the calendar events which userids
where broken by a wrong upgrade step, affecting to Moodle 3.9.5
and up.
It performs checks to both:
a) Detect if the site was affected (ran the wrong upgrade step).
b) Look for orphaned calendar events, categorising them as:
- standard: site / category / course / group / user events
- subscription: events created via subscriptions.
- action: normal action events, created to show common important dates.
- override: user and group override events, particular, that some activities support.
- custom: other events, not being any of the above, common or particular.
By specifying it (--fix) try to recover as many broken events (missing userid) as
possible. Standard, subscription, action, override events in core are fully supported but
override or custom events should be fixed by each plugin as far as there isn't any standard
API (plugin-wise) to launch a rebuild of the calendar events.
4) Unit tests and helper functions to generate calendar events. We have decided to
keep the tests simple, testing only true and false and not using data generators because
the code is purely to recover the calendar events and won't turn into an API or something
and also due to the urgency of this issue.
The helpers have been created in calendar/tests/helpers.php since there are no data generators
for calendar.
Create a new profile field type, move all existing content of the fields
'icq', 'skype', 'aim', 'yahoo', 'msn' and 'url' in the mdl_user table to
theses new profile fields if needed.

In order to make easier to create and maintain new OAuth2 services,
a couple of classes have been added:
- discovery\* contains methods related to the discovery system. Until
now, only OpenID Connect was supported by Moodle so all the code was
centralised in api.php.
With this patch, as IMS OBv2.1 has a different discovery system, a new
abstract class (base_definition) has been added to be called and let
every discovery system (OpenID Connect, IMS Badge Connect...)
implement their own methods.
- service\* . Instead of keep adding methods to the api, the service
namespace has been created to store all the standard issuer services.
An interface (issuer_interface) has been created and all the services
should implement it.
This patch creates the "IMS OBv2.1" and "Custom" services and moves
the methods for "Google" service because it uses the OpenID connect
discovery system.
The $CFG->badges_site_backpack setting has been completely removed
because it's not required anymore. From now, the primary site
backpack will be the first one in the "Manage backpacks" list (so,
the one with lower sortorder value).
Sortorder field in badge_external_backpack was updated with a wrong
value. This patch fixes this behaviour and adds sortorder as
sorting criteria for displaying the list of site backpacks.
In the phpunit method reviewed for covering this, a couple of
assertEquals() calls have been changed too to put the expected value
first.
Plus additional amendments to Fred's original commit:
1. Updating the version numbers
2. Merging the original two-step upgrade below into one for simplicity:
1. Deleting the pictures for groups with hidepicture set to 1; and
2. Dropping the hidepicture field itself.
3. Converted array() usages to the short syntax [].
This just deletes all the upgrade steps previous to 3.6.0. Some
small adjustments, like tweaking globals can also be applied
when needed.
Also includes an upgrade step to prevent upgrading from any
version < 2018120300 (v3.6.0) as anti-cheating measure.
Note that in this case, there wasn't any case of upgradelib
functions being used, hence we haven't to deprecate/remove
anything in codebase. When there is such a need, that is done
in separate commits (one for each function) and documented here.
See MDL-65809 commits for an example removing/deprecating a
good number of functions.
