This patch adds better core support for copying courses.
There is now a simplified and dedicated UI for copying
courses. This can be accessed from the course context
menu or course management screens.
All backups are done asynchronously and there can be multiple
copies of a course in flight at once.
The patch adds two new optional parameters that control the function
behaviour. With default values, the function is backwards compatible and
it simply uses the number of enrolment records. The new parameters allow
to include only active enrolments and/or only recently active users.
Committer's note: This change was originally part of a bigger patchset
submitted by the author. This is a stripped-down version that does not
use phpunit tests for the new behaviour.
* On course creation, make sure that we can enable relative dates mode
only when the site setting is enabled.
* On course update, make sure that the relative dates mode setting
cannot be changed.
This is intended to visually separate hidden course from open
courses in the course overview block
by applying a "Hidden from students" tag to the various views in
this block.
To achive this, the course summary exporter's output must be
augmented with a "visiblity" attribute,
carrying the given course's corresponding visibility setting.
Since the exporter now expects this data point as part of its input,
the output of the course_get_recent_courses()
function had to also be augmented with the course visibility setting
to provide this value.
This commit is part of work on Custom fields API,
to minimize commit history in moodle core the work of a team of developers was split
into several commits with different authors but the authorship of individual
lines of code may be different from the commit author.
We should only call this function when a user actually views a course. It is not called
automatically when a course context is validated from a webservice. It is called directly
from the core_course_view_course webservice.
* add new preferences for hidden courses
* Modified course filter to use the user preference
* Behat test
* Regex update
* Toggle hide/show
* Update enrolled_course getter to pass hidden value
* provider
* unit tests
Thanks to MDL-49398, we can separate the combined user session and role
definition cache clearing function into two separate functions. At the
same time, we want to identify and remove mark_dirty() calls that were
added for role definition changes but were incorrectly left behind.
Change highlights:
- Remove unnecessary mark_dirty() calls performed after
assign_capability(), unassign_capability(), delete_role(),
deleted contexts, brand new contexts
- Move role definition cache clear from the user-centric
accesslib_clear_all_caches() to the newly created,
role-dedicated accesslib_reset_role_cache()
