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
- adhoc task: \core\task\clean_up_deleted_search_area_task adhoc task
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
Applied the following changes to various testcase classes:
- Namespaced with component[\level2-API]
- Moved to level2-API subdirectory when required.
- Fixed incorrect use statements with leading backslash.
- Remove file phpdoc block
- Remove MOODLE_INTERNAL if not needed.
- Changed code to point to global scope when needed.
- Fix some relative paths and comments here and there.
- All them passing individually.
- Complete runs passing too.
Special mention to:
- Moved to the level2 "privacy" namespace:
- \mod_assign\privacy\feedback_legacy_polyfill_test
- \mod_assign\privacy\submission_legacy_polyfill_test
- Moved to the level2 "task" namespace:
- \core_message\task\migrate_message_data_test
- \ltiservice_gradebookservices\task\cleanup_test
- \message_email\task\send_email_test
- \mod_lti\task\clean_access_tokens_test
- \mod_workshop\task\cron_task_test
- Moved to the level2 "event" namespace:
- \core_h5p\event\deleted_test
- \core_h5p\event\viewed_test
- Renamed to a better name:
- backup_forum_activity_task_test.php (missing "task")
* Fetch only the fields required by the function.
* Quick validation of the passed forum parameter. If the forum parameter
is an object, it should have the forum ID and the course ID.
* Default return when there's no need to show a warning yet.
* Return early if the forum's blockafter or blockperiod attributes
are empty.
* If $cm is not passed in forum_check_throttling(), try to fetch it
using get_fast_modinfo() which avoids DB reads. Fetch it via
get_coursemodule_from_instance() as a last resort (though it's unlikely
to happen).
When a student post exceeds the posting threshold
block then 'Add discussion topic' button should not be shown.
Also the student cannot reply to a topic if this is exceeded.

Special mention to:
- When belonging to other components and being valid api:
- analytics related tests have been moved to tests/analytics subdir.
- backup & restore related tests have been moved to tests/backup subdir.
- events related tests have been moved to tests/event subdir.
- privacy related tests have been moved to tests/privacy.
- task related tests have been moved to tests/task subdir.
- Some simple renames, not including the component part anymore (not
needed now that they are namespaced):
- some xxxlib_test.php have been renamed lib_test.php
(when they where testing the corresponding lib.php).
- cache stores tests have been all renamed store_test, originally
each one had its own name (file_test, apcu_test, redis_test...)
- assign feedback tests have been all renamed feedback_test, originally
each one had its own name (file_test, editpdf_test...)
Moodle announced that support for IE would be dropped back in August
2020 with Moodle 3.9 but not active steps were taken at that time. That
decision was made in MDLSITE-6109 and this particular step was meant to
be taken in Moodle 3.10.
This is the first step taken to actively drop support for IE.
This commit also bumps the browser support pattern from 0.25% to 0.3%.
The percentage here includes any browser where at least this percentage
of users worldwide may be using a browser. In this case it causes
support for Android 4.3-4.4 to be dropped, which relate to Android
KitKat (released 2013).
This combination of changes means that all of the supported browsers in
our compatibility list support modern features including async,
for...of, classes, native Promises, and more which has a huge impact on
the ease of debugging code, and drastically reduces the minified file
size because a number of native Polyfills included by Babel are no
longer included.
Unfortunately the babel minify-mangle plugin seems to be abandoned and
in certain circumstances can be very buggy. The only safe options are to
disable it, or to switch to a different minification library.
Not minifying our javascript is not ideal, so this commit updates the
javascript tasks to use a rollup, combined with babel, and terser.
Babel still converts code from ES/UMD/AMD to AMD modules with the
relevant browser support, whilst terser minifies the code.
The rollup bundler handles tracking and creation of sourcemaps, and
supports better parallelisation of the tasks.
Since the upgrade to Node LTS/Gallium requires an upgrade to @babel/core
and eslint, which change the built files anyway, this seems like the
ideal time to make this change.
This issue is a followup for changes made in forum. And hence
addresses the following issues spotted for forum:
1. Bring back the "Forums" header in the search page.
2. Remove the stale function forum_update_subscriptions_button
3. Fix the redirection to activity tab when subscription is
changed, in the subscription tab.
Introduces some changes to the exising _extend_settings_navigation()
methods that utilize the global $PAGE object. In order to accomodate
the changes done for the secondary navigation for single activity
courses, the methods that extend the settings navigation can no longer
rely on the $PAGE object, instead the more reliabe way to obtain this
infomation is through the get_page() method from settings_navigation
class.
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.
