The badges feature allows to integrate Mozilla "Open Badges" to issue, assign,
manage and display digital badges in Moodle. This feature supports:
-- badge creation and issuing based on criteria
-- badge baking and verification service
-- direct pushing of internal badges to external backpack
-- interanl and external badge display in Moodle
-- Moodle block to display latest badges
* added new config option to determine length of courses returned by import
* added text indicator if there are more than X number of courses, similar to how the restore course list currently works
GD PHP extension is now required. Add-ons need to remove $CFG->gdversion tests. The worst case regression is that add-on will think GD is not available.
As the admin_category::add() method now checks for the third parameter,
couple of typos were detected in the code. Additional parameters passed
to the add() method were probably a mistake, a relict or a typo.
Note that the typo in admin/tool/unsuproles/settings.php had actually
significant impact on the functionality as the array with required
capabilities was not actually passed to the admin_externalpage
constructor as intended.
course, cohort, enrol, role, groups and forum used to use hard-coded
MAX_USERS_PER_PAGE=100 for rendering user list. This has been converted
to $CFG->maxusersperpage.
Switching between categories view and edit no longer depend on global editing mode
/course/index.php and /course/category.php do not contain editing code
Now MUC is used to cache subscription information when the constructor for an event is called, which is child of a ical subscription.
A new setting calendar_showicalsource is introduced which controls if the ical source should be displayed along with events in the calendar
Also minor changes has been done in places to make sure subscription id is always associated with ical events
The settings control the display options used when a user
first previews a question in the question bank. Once a
user has previewed some questions, these are stored as user
preferences.
It may not seem worth making this configurable, but acutally
it is important when training new users to get them started
off using the right opitions.
It seems to be better to check for required permission later, when the
button to install the update is actually being displayed. Credit goes to
Dan Poltawski for suggesting this.
If $CFG->disableupdateautodeploy is set in config.php, no automatic
deploy can happen. This is for sites that are managed by a provider but
their clients have admin access.
