The following are notable changes made in this commit
* Lesson page type are now class based and extend an abstract class. This includes a class for the page type and a class for the creating/editing a instance of this page.
* Converted all forms to mforms
* Action script located in mod/action/* were worked into the above so far less switch statements and the action directory will be removed.
* Implements a custom renderer
* Converted everything to use page, output, and custom renderer methods
* Replaced all deprecated methods incl. print_textarea conversions
* Tried to cut down on excessive DB calls.
Things worth noting:
* The focus of this patch was on cleaning up the module not rewriting it, as such I have organized NOT rewritten. There are still many areas in the module where the code could be greatly improved however to do so would require a rethink/rewrite
This new messaging system replaces all the various email_to_user() calls.
They are now replaced by events triggers, and the messages are then
processed centrally according to user preferences and sent to one or more
processors (email, popup, jabber etc...)
This code is not finished yet, a lot of work still has to be done on the
interface. However, the basic structure is there and should be working.
Luis and I will be reviewing and polishing this heavily in the next few weeks.
Led to reducing some redundant code in action/continue.php
Also, a bug fix in locallib.php for function lesson_print_submit_link (needed to add slashes or else js would break)
=======================================
WARNING: DEV IS CURRENTLY VERY UNSTABLE.
This is a mega-checkin of the new Roles system. A lot of changes have
been made in core and modules.
Currently there are a lot of rough edges and known problems. We are
working hard on these .. .the reason for getting this into HEAD at this
stage is enable us to move faster (our branch was diverging from HEAD
too much).
Please keep an eye on http://docs.moodle.org/en/Roles for current status
and information for developers on how to use the new Roles system.
Updated backup and restore to include the new values
Fixed a bug in restore where it would restore 1 lesson_default per lesson. Now only stores one per course.
Went through all the backuplib.php, restorelib.php, mysql.sql and postgres7.sql to make sure everything was in synch and being backed up and restored.
[Added] Graceful fails added to view.php, essay grading, and reports
[Changed] got rid of a lot of references to $_POST/GET/REQUEST
[Fixed] In reports, it required teacheredit, should only be teacher
[Changed] High scores - teachers can actually see them! Also, improved output by using print_table and print_heading
[Changed] Grade essays now uses fullname() to print user names
NEW: Display Left Menu IF. The left menu will only display if the student has a grade better than the one set in the lesson settings. This is nice to allow only students who are reviewing the lesson to have access to the left menu.
BUG FIX: In Windows IE, the content was being aligned center. Now, the content is explicitly aligned to left as default.
BUG FIX: High Scores variable was not spelled correctly at the End of Lesson.
ADDED: Div tags around branch tables. This will allow users to choose to display them or not or move them around
CHANGED: converted more of the links to the stylized button. Also, removed a lot of forms and javascript and replaced it with links with the variables in the href.
CHANGED: the slide show styles have been moved to the style sheet.
CHANGED: removed the CDC comments
Other minor changes have been made to the code as well.
In a lesson's settings one can now set the current lesson to be dependent on another lesson in the same course. Then, the user can set the conditions for the dependency. Currently the conditions are time spent, grade better than X, and completed (yes/no).
(While I was at it I also turned the autologinguests off for most module pages, except on the index.php pages and the view.php pages for those modules that allow guests)
These are the changes from MOODLE_13_STABLE, merged into trunk
The tag MOODLE_13_MERGED on the MOODLE_13_STABLE branch now refers to this point
The biggest changes here are the fixes for HTML editor in all standard modules
