This is the list of changes applied to the Starter preset, following
the community suggestions and the latest features included in 4.0:
- Hide Online users, Recently accessed courses and Starred courses.
- Re-enable Description and Essay question types.
- Disable guest enrolment and hide guest login button.
- Reduce the information displayed in the activity chooser.
Apart from that, the User menu items has been removed because it had
the same value in both presets (so it makes no sense having there).
Note that, instead of going one by one to them from the XMLDB Editor
(load, makes some tiny change, save, revert the change, save), the
report includes a commented line that, once uncommented, does regenerate
the file while reporting.
I've left it there as a commodity for the developer.
People uses to edit the install.xml files manually, here and there. That
uses to come with small mistakes, like wrong white-space indentation,
some attributes out of order...
While none of them are critical, they add a lot of noise when somebody
is correctly editing a file with the XMLDB Editor because it, correctly,
overwrites the whole file and then diffs show a lot of unrelated changes.
So, this report will inform us about any file needing to be regenerated
because it has been manually edited (in a different way than the way
the editor has).
Note that the report is very basic, with minimal ouput, manually
generating the HTML, like the rest of the XMLDB Editor actions do. We
are not using renderers neither templates here.
Also note that it includes a commented line of code that, once
uncommented, enables the report to, also, fix the wrong files. Useful
for developers.

This commit implements the status change pop up for a question
in the base view. This feature update will allow the change of
status of a question without creating a new version.
This commit also implements the status as a char rather than
an int value.
The versioning changes will require some major changes
in the backup and restore of question bank and its
elements. This change introduces those changes to make
it compatible with the new world of versioning in question
bank. This commit also removes quiz_slots fields and
quiz_slot_tags table.
This commit will also introduce the versioning db
structure and some major changes to the quiz
and quiz attempts for the question, random
question and the view.
This commit implements the behat changes for versioning
in core question and associated locations.
This commit adds the changes in questiontype base
to work with new question tables and the new structure in the
databse. Also needed for versioning.
This implementation will also introduct the question status
which allows a question to be in draft and ready status.
I also introduces changes to the base view where it shows
the latest version of the questions. The view of versions
for a question is not implemented in this commit.
This implementation will also introduce changes in the core
qtype plugins to support versioning and the changed
db schema.
This commit moves the presets subsystem to a location within the admin
folder, which is more appropriate given its purpose and reduces
developer frustration with tab completion of the admin directory.
We can use the Moodle language format for tour's name and description now.
Also, several existing bugs were fixed in this commit when we use
the Moodle language format for step's title and content.
Now, it will display the translated text in the breadcrumb, editing page
instead of displaying the [identifier][component]
