This code was used only by deleted upgrade steps so it's safe
to proceed with straight deletion, considering it internal.
Deletion has been documented in corresponding upgrade.txt files:
- \mod_forum\task\refresh_forum_post_counts adhoc task
And these is the list of code that has NOT been removed
because it may be needed in the future:
- \core_search\manager::clean_up_non_existing_area(), used by

This just deletes all the upgrade steps previous to 3.9.0. Some
small adjustments, like tweaking globals can also be applied
when needed.
Also includes an upgrade step to prevent upgrading from any
version < 2020061500 (v3.9.0) as anti-cheating measure.
The next commits will proceed to deprecate / remove functions
that were exclusively (usually belonging to upgradelib) being
used by those, now removed, upgrade steps. This is the list
of code to remove and document in upgrade.txt files:
- upgrade_analytics_fix_contextids_defaults()
- upgrade_convert_hub_config_site_param_names()
- upgrade_rename_prediction_actions_useful_incorrectly_flagged()
- \mod_forum\task\refresh_forum_post_counts adhoc task.
And these is the code that has NOT been removed
because it may be needed later (no matter there aren't uses now):
- \core_search\manager::clean_up_non_existing_area(), used by
- \core\task\clean_up_deleted_search_area_task adhoc task
Current code was relying on grade_floatval() that is not a validation
function. Instead, the gradepass field must be defined as proper float
and then perform the needed validations using unformat_float().
Note that the float element form has some particularities, see
MDL-73994 for more information and that makes us to have to check
for some values (null, zero) manually. Once that form element type
gets its behaviour fixed, the code will need to be revisited, hence
we have annotated it as comments for easier finding it in the future
(the same changes already were applied to other gradebook forms).
Also, remove an unreachable line of code (comparing with empty string)
within the grade_floatval() function because it's not possible anymore
to pass any string to it, as far as it's "?float" typed.
Covered as many cases with quiz completion as have been able to imagine.
- Apply the .alert-dismissible class for notification alerts with
close button to fix its positioning. As an added bonus, the
.alert-dismissible class also enlarges the clickable area of the
close button which is great for accessibility.
- Improve example context for the notification alerts templates.
This patch modifies the way copy data is shared in order to mitigate potential race conditions
and ensure that the serialised controller stored in the DB is always in a valid state.
The restore controller is now considered the "source of truth" for all information about the
copy operation. Backup controllers can no longer contain information about course copies.
As copy creation is not atomic, it is still possible for copy controllers to become orphaned or
exist in an invalid state. To mitigate this the backup cleanup task has been modified to call
a new helper method copy_helper::cleanup_orphaned_copy_controllers.
Summary of changes in this patch:
- Copy data must now be passed through the restore controller's constructor
- base_controller::get_copy has been deprecated in favour of restore_controller::get_copy
- base_controller::set_copy has been deprecated without replacement
- core_backup\copy\copy has been deprecated, use copy_helper.class.php's copy_helper instead
- backup_cleanup_task will now clean up orphaned controllers from copy operations that went awry
Thanks to Peter Burnett for assiting with testing this patch.
Re-factor existing code to make use of file manager class that renders
these details for us by default.
