This has been generated running the following Sniff,
part of the Moodle's CodeSniffer standard:
- PSR2.Methods.MethodDeclaration
It just ensures all the function declarations have
the correct order for:
- abstract and final.
- visibility (public, protected, private).
- static.
So, all the lines modified by this commit are function declarations
and the only changes are in the positions of those keywords.
Avoids validating form data which is carried over from the
simple dynamic form to the advanced form page when creating
or editing grade items, categories and outcomes in the
Gradebook setup.
Fixes an accessibility violation in the gradebook setup page
related to the insufficient spacing between the select checkbox
elements and the 'move' icon.
This change enhances the user experience in the grade report grader by
moving grade item weight calculations to the front-end. Previously,
these calculations were done on form submission, resulting in slower
performance and less interactivity.
With this improvement, grade item weights are now calculated dynamically
in the browser as users make changes, providing instant feedback and a
more responsive interface. This change improves the usability and
efficiency of the grade report grader.
This is only applicable to natural aggregation type.
Problem:
In grade_edittree_column_status::get_category_cell, an assumption was
made that $category->grade_item is always populated. However, this was
not guaranteed, leading to potential issues.
Solution:
To ensure $category->grade_item availability, a $category->load_grade_item();
call was introduced in grade_edittree_column_status::get_category_cell.
This guarantees safe usage of $category->grade_item.
Furthermore, in grade_edit_tree::build_html_tree, $category->get_grade_item()
was replaced with $category->load_grade_item() for enhanced reliability
and potential performance improvement.
Explanation:
These changes enhance robustness and efficiency in gradebook.
Addressing incomplete grade item handling improves code reliability and
user experiences.
Problem:
In Moodle 4.2, an unintended change in behaviour occurred when locking
and unlocking grade items. Previously, in Moodle 4.1, locking a grade
item and then subsequently unlocking the grade item left specific grades
for students still locked if they were being locked individually.
However, in Moodle 4.2, the unintended change caused the individual
grades to be unlocked along with the grade item.
Solution:
To address this issue, I modified the set_locked calls in action.php to
pass the cascade parameter as false. Now, when locking or unlocking a
grade item, only the grade item itself is affected, leaving individual
grades unchanged. I have also modified the locking behaviour in the
grade_category class. So, similarly, when locking or unlocking a grade
category, the change applies only to the grade items and grade
categories within the category, without expanding to individual grades.
Explanation:
By making this change, we ensure that the locking mechanism behaves as
expected, providing a consistent and desirable user experience. Locking
and unlocking a grade item or category will no longer inadvertently
affect individual grades, preserving their locked status and avoiding
loss of data when unlocking a grade item associated with the total mark
of a category.
In PHP 8.2 and later, setting a value to an undeclared class property is
deprecated and emits a deprecation notice.
So we need to add missing class properties that still need to be declared.

Previous to this, heading logic was performed in print_grade_page_head.
With the deprecation of the showtitle param, it makes sense now to
explicitly set the heading when the function is called. This prevents
duplicated text between the heading and teriary dropdown. This patch
also fixes unnecessary text that was concatenated onto headings.
Ensure the saved values for the hidden and hidden until fields are
populated when editing a grade category. Fix behaviour on enabling
the hidden until field.
Re-enable tests commented out in eba1d32c.
Create or update the breadcrumbs in the site administration
pages where it is required.
Highlight the corresponding site adminstration tab.
Highlight the primary nav to Site administration when user
is navigating to any of the site administration pages.
Also changed the boostnavbar so that the nodes in the secondary
navigation are not shown in the breadcrumbs when user is in site
administration page.
