This files describes API changes for course formats
Overview of this plugin type at http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Course_formats
=== 2.4 ===
* Function settings_navigation::add_course_editing_links() is completely removed, course format
functions callback_XXXX_request_key() are no longer used (where XXXX is the course format name)
=== 2.3 ===
* The new $course->coursedisplay option was introduced, users can now choose to display
a section at a time if the course formats support it:
- COURSE_DISPLAY_SINGLEPAGE indicates the teacher has chosen to display all sections on one page
- COURSE_DISPLAY_MULTIPAGE indicates the teacher has chose to have seperate pages with each section.
* The parameter for 'currently active section' was standardised in core:
- The course format is passed the currently live section through the $displaysection varaible to format.php
- A 'section' paramter is the standardised way to pass around the current section in a course
- Navigation no longer looks for custom parameters defined in callback_format_request_key
