Logs now include a field called modid which contains the coursemodule id.
This makes it now possible to
- see complete logs per-activity
- do backup/restore of logs
The upgrade process will currently try to scan all the old logs and
rebuild this field based on available data (especially forums).
STILL TO DO: alter all the non-forum modules to send the coursemodule id
that returned id-column was string and some modules were thingking that theres
insert error if return value is string.
Right now all id-colums is always integer so
this should be ok.
Petri Asikainen rewrote insert_record to use ADOdb functions. It might
be very slightly slower but it gets rid of all the horrible not-quite-working
PostgreSQL workarounds the old one contained.
It worked for him on PostgreSQL 7.4 and for me on MySQL 3.23 and 4.0.15,
so I'm checking it in.
Please test it thoroughly on your test systems.
Since it writes data it has the potential to stuff things up, so be
careful on production systems for a few days.
It's very early (it doesn't actually do anything yet!) but you can
define groups and get an idea of how the interface is shaping up.
I also wanted to show that I have actually done something on this! :-)
From here my plan is to add group support to the modules, one by one
(forums first), then go back and clean up some of the central interfaces,
graphics etc.
Finally, test, test, test and get 1.2 out well before the end of February.
Starting with v. 7.4 postgres is returning default-values with datatype in form:
'default value'::data type
This cannot be inserted back to database so DEFAULT keyword must be used.
for recording the last access to the COURSE.
This is updated at the same time as add_to_log and is now used instead
of user->lastaccess when course user listings are required.
This means course listings now show what you expect and open up the way
for a "current users" listing and instant messaging etc ...
- small numbers of courses (less than 8) are displayed in full,
unless the creator or admin is editing.
- course counts are now accurate when all courses are removed from
a category
