It's very early (it doesn't actually do anything yet!) but you can
define groups and get an idea of how the interface is shaping up.
I also wanted to show that I have actually done something on this! :-)
From here my plan is to add group support to the modules, one by one
(forums first), then go back and clean up some of the central interfaces,
graphics etc.
Finally, test, test, test and get 1.2 out well before the end of February.
for recording the last access to the COURSE.
This is updated at the same time as add_to_log and is now used instead
of user->lastaccess when course user listings are required.
This means course listings now show what you expect and open up the way
for a "current users" listing and instant messaging etc ...
1) There is a new site-wide configuration variable called maxbytes,
which provides an upper filesize limit for all (student) uploads.
2) There is a new course-level variable called maxbytes, which further
limits uploads within a course.
3) There is a new maxbytes field for forums, which further restricts
the size allowed in a particular forum. There is also a new config
variable in the module configuration to specify a default size
to use when defining a new forum.
4) Assignments already had a limit, but this is now aware of the other
limits, and like forums there is now a settable default value.
5) Finally, the sizes of files (Gb, Mb, Kb, bytes) is now translatable
in the language packs.
so it can be translated.
There is now a new function get_list_of_countries() which will return a
sorted array of countries in the best current language.
get_string("AU", "countries") will also work if needed
This includes some significant cleanups to the new course categories
system. The basic idea is that the categories/course browser is now
unified under one system, and admin features related to that have
all been moved into the browser (as little icons).
I'm much happier with this as a foundation that can scale and be
built upon.
Still to go:
- searching
- paging
- polishing
Also in here are a lot of little cleanups around the place, such as
the initial setup process.
- moved user images to /pix/u folder, and changed format to .png to allow
transparent images etc. These can now be customised in themes.
- removed legacy madewithmoodle logos
changing passwords, and enabled the internal "change password" button
just like "email" and "none".
Thanks to Danilo Massa for pointing out the inconsistency.
This sets the default value for on-the-fly forum subscription.
Defaults to on = subscribe.
(Also fixed a bug in postgres7.sql - a missing field for htmleditor!)
Hopefully this is also the end of the occasional errors we keep
hearing about to do with never getting to setup the admin user.
(I think admin/site.php had a redirect that didn't always work).
The setup process is now much better at "trapping" you until it's all done.
