If you dragged a question to the top of the quiz, it could
disappear. Several other cases of dragging questions to the
same place in sequence, but to a different page/section were
also failing, and have been fixed.
version = planned 2015051100 release version
requires= current 2015050500 rc1 version
Note: On purpose, the course format social wrong version (2015102100)
has been kept unmodified. Looking forward a solution right now.
The sections are created on the edit quiz page, and then appear in the
navigation panel when the quiz is being attempted to help students find
their way around.
The 'Shuffle questions' setting has been moved from being per-quiz
to being a per-section.
This commit is actually the joint work of Mahmoud Kassaei and Tim Hunt
from The Open University. We could only use one persons name for the
commit and this time Mahmoud gets the credit/blame.
Further improvements to this code, including resolving edge cases:
* The new feature can only be used when it is possible for the
previous question in the quiz to be complete.
* Also, this new feature cannot be used in combination with shuffle
questions, because that make no sense; nor in combination with
sequential navigation, because to make that work properly would be a lot
of effort. If someone needs that to work later, it should be possible
for them to implement it.
* There were changes in the edit renderer API, to try to make things
more consistent, and to make it less likely we will need to change
things again in the future. See mod/quiz/upgrade.txt.
* As part of this change, the styling of the Edit quiz page was tweaked
to make slighly more efficient use of the horizontal space, and to be
more symmetrical.
If a quiz is set to have a grace period when time has expired, we only
email studnets to warn them about their overdue attempt if they have put
in an answer to at least one question that is worth some marks.
This commit is actually the joint work of Mahmoud Kassaei, Colin
Chambers and Tim Hunt from The Open University. We could only use one

The goal of this work was to increase usability, and also clean up
the page enough that it will be possible to add new features in future.
Display of mod/quiz/edit.php is now entirely generated by
mod_quiz\output\edit_renderer. This uses a helper class
mod_quiz\structure to provide details of the structure of the quiz, and
mod_quiz\repaginate to alter that structure. (Acutally, there are still
some modification methods on mod_quiz\structure. Expect that to be
cleaned up in future.)
The new code uses much more ajax, and there are new scripts
mod/quiz/edit_rest.php and mod/quiz/repaginate.php to handle this.
(Again, don't be surprised if those two scripts get merged in future.)
Also questionbank.ajax.php (which may, in future, be made more generic,
and moved into the core question bank code.)
Most of the new JavaScript code has intentionally copied the way things
are done when editing activities on the course page.
As a result of this, mod/quiz/editlib.php is now much shorter than it
was. (In future, expect the remaining code in here to move into
mod/quiz/classes.)
This patch adds completion options to Quiz similar to what is available in scorm.
One can have the quiz marked complete when either a passing grade is achieved or
all attempts are used up. This will allow a quiz to complete when the user "passes
or fails". (Where "fail" means "using up all attempts without passing".)
The sequence of questions that made up a quiz used to be stored as a
comma-separated list in quiz.questions. Now the same information is
stored in the rows in the quiz_slots table. This is not just 'better' in
a database design sense, but it allows for the future changes we will
need as we enhance the quiz in the MDL-40987 epic.
Having changed the database structure, all the rest of the code needs to
be changed to account for it, and that is done here.
Note that there are not many unit tests for the changed bit. That is
because as part of MDL-40987 we will be changing the code further, and
we will add unit tests then.
