From now on, all English strings use the new syntax. They are not
eval()'ed any more and the only valid placeholders are {$a} and
{$a->foobar}. No extra quotes escaping, dollar sign escaping and putting
double percent signs.
The modified files were exported from AMOS database repository in the
new syntax and were re-ordered by stringid. Standard GNU/GPL and PHPdoc
blocks are added. Where there was no copyright note so far, I added the
default one with Martin Dougiamas as the copyright holder.
Live long and prosper.
Very big theme changes, standardold theme has been split into two themes base and standard. Base theme contains only CSS that is absolutly required (e.g. layout, white space rules, specific widths) and standard (which now looks like standardwhite) contains all the frills.
The following noteable changes have also been made:
* Plugin CSS has been pushed back into the plugin directories as styles.css files.
* Install_print_header has been corrected.
* Redundant or deprecated rules have been removed.
* Several minor class changes throughout Moodle.
* CSS is now single line rules not multiline indented.
* Installs with theme=standardold automatically switch to standard.
* body classes / id now have prefixes to make it clearer what they are and avoid conflicts.
Also worth noting:
* There is still alot of tweaking that is required to get everything looking as it is supposed to, please be patient or better yet help out.
* I am currently working on the documentation for the themes system... it will be here soon.
This patch introduces two new blocks global_navigation_tree and settings_navigation_tree
both of which have been designed to make full use of the new navigation objects available through
the $PAGE object.
Bulk of this code is within lib/navigationlib.php
Simplepie will try quite aggresively to autodiscover rss feeds by
default. Make this configurable when adding a feed and also store
the autodiscovered location rather than the input location.
I also removed the feed validator as this doesn't make much sense with
feed autodiscovery, and I think we can improve simplepie integration to
do this instead
In order to stop 'slow loading feeds' causing performance problems
with standard moodle pages, i've set the timeout for simplepie quite
low. When cron runs i've set this timeout high and cache duration low.
The intention is that cron does all the hard work of connecting to remote
sites and users get this fast fast fast from cache.
However, in the case of adding a feed its probably better to try and get the
feed more agressively..
- Specify default low connect timeout in order that 'interactive' pages are
not slowed down by slow feeds
- Set default cache feed duration of 1 hour
In RSS feed block:
- Try really hard in cron to retreive the feed
- Set the cache duration low in order to help cron refresh the cache
- Remove obsolete magpie configuration
- Remove block_rss_client_submitters which has not been used for some
time
- Remove some block_rss_client setup from rsslib.php
