The new configuration flag $CFG->forceclean overrides the noclean
option when calling format_text() so that the text is always
and unconditionally cleaned.
If enabled $CFG->allowcohortthemes, then themes can be set at the cohort level.
This will affect all users with only one cohort or more than one but with the same theme.
The default theme order will be: course, category, session, user, cohort, site.
The search areas screen contains several options which are potentially
risky for a live site but can be triggered by accidentally clicking a
single button or link.
This change adds a confirmation prompt for all these options.
The enable/disable search area icon does not have a confirmation
prompt because this is nondestructive (you can just click the icon
again to change it back).
Implements a mechanism by which search engines can provide different
result orderings, and implements a 'by location' ordering within the
Solr search engine (available whenever the user starts their search
from within a course or activity).
- Define sitepolicy handler manager class, base class and the core handler
- Allow to set a plugin as sitepolicyhandler that implements the sitepolicy API
- Modify web services to return information from the 3rd party handler instead of core if needed
The patch introduces a new site setting 'sitepolicyhandler' that can be
either empty or contain a plugin component name. If it is empty, the
site policy feature keeps working as before and the core keeps the
control over it.
If a plugin is specified, it is expected to implement the callback
'site_policy_handler' in its lib.php file. The callback should return a
URL to a script where the user can accept the site policies. The plugin
itself is responsible for setting the 'policyagreed' flag in the users
table. The callback may return an empty value, in which case the user
can continue using the site without being redirected.
The patch adds support for a new pre-config flag NO_SITEPOLICY_CHECK.
This constant should be defined and set to true if we should not check
the user's policyagreed status during the require_login().
This is for pages where the user actually accepts the site policies and
helps to avoid the redirect loop.
