We created a list of placeholder selectors in placeholderSelectors option.
The purpose of this list is to indicate the contents that are only shown
in the editor and not to the users, by that way, we can decide to apply or
not to apply rules, styles, etc... to these contents
PHP before version 8.1 automatically converted to int if the function
parameter (or array key) is expected to be int. PHP 8.1 shows notice in
this case
PHP before version 8.1 automatically converted stdClass or 'false' to arrays if
function parameter expects array (for example, "reset").
PHP 8.1 shows notices in these situations
At the moment, quiz_statistics\task\recalculate gives no useful
information about what it is doing, which makes it hard to investigate
if the task fails. This commit makes it more usefully verbose.
Also, following this change, one instance of this task will not
run for more than one hour at a time.
As part of this commit, I have added a new helper mtrace_exception.
to consistently log exceptions in scheduled tasks. It is sad to
add a new function to moodlelib.php, but that seemed the logical place.
Looking at other tasks, this method is badly needed. Many are just
logging the ->getMessage() which is normaly insufficient for proper
debugging. However, swiching all existing tasks to use the new function
will need to wait for a future MDL.
extrainfo is an extra information for the DB driver, e.g. SQL Server,
has additional configuration according to its environment,
which the administrator can specify to alter and override any connection options.

- Markdown is saved to the DB, no conversion to HTML to keep
ability to reedit the content without beaking it.
- Blockquote element is styled that it's distingishable from
normal text.
Adding an activity with a grade item previously triggered a course
regrade, which can be extremely slow. This change makes it so that on
courses where regrading is slow, when you add an activity that
requires regrading, it takes you to an intermediate screen with a
progress bar.
This change also fixes a bug in the existing grade overview report,
which shows grades across multiple courses, but previously only
checked, and if necessary regraded, one course.
I have opted not to go through any deprecation process for this as there
is not really much we can do about it anyway. There is no loss of
functionality - just a change of where things are served from.
The Yahoo! CDN was only used for http connections as it did not
officially support SSL, and it is not guaranteed to continue existing in
the future since YUI has been deprecated for a number of years now.
Add 'versionfromdb' to opt-in for VERSION() query.
mariadb_native_moodle_database::get_server_info() has been removed
to avoid the specific override: everything is now managed in the base
method which takes care of both MySQL and MariaDB versioning details.
New protected methods have been added too to improve the testing strategy,
allowing to mock the results from an actual DB connection.
The new testing strategy enables simulating even the Azure scenarios.
When the param string contains a left curly bracket as the first character,
the system will assume the string is a JSON string and will be parsed and returned as an object.
But in some cases, the string is not JSON and will return an error if the system parses it.
For example, a user might have used the course name with a left curly bracket as the first character.
Adding a double quote after the left curly bracket to differentiate between string and JSON string,
so it can be safe to parse the string, and also added try..catch to ensure that the parsing creates an object type.
