pluggable modules in the 'auth' directory.
Everything is done through authentication_user_login in lib/moodlelib.php
As well as the old default "email" confirmation, I added a new type of
confirmation "none", which basically does no confirmation at all.
confirmation on deletions, removing deleted user from all student lists,
teacher lists and subscription lists and freeing up their username and
email to be used again.
in a course. Firstly, the course settings page now allows the teachers
to specify the word they want to use in place of "teachers" and "students"
as well as "teacher" and "student". Secondly, a new teacher admin tool
allows any teacher to modify the order and displayed role of teachers
in that course. This affects the display on the course listings, the
participants page and so on.
there are three options:
0) Hide the email address from everyone (except the teacher of their course)
1) Allow everyone to see the email address, all the time.
2) Allow only participants in the same course to see the email address
Note, new field maildisplay in 'user'
servers that have register_globals turned off (this is the
default setting on newer version of PHP).
In fact it's partly a hack that globalises all GET, POST, FILES
AND COOKIE variables. Unfortunately though the SESSION and
USER global session variables are only available as $_SESSION["USER"]
and $_SESSION["SESSION"], which is cumbersome to use.
So, for every request I now make a copy of these two session variables
into $USER and $SESSION. Whenever I update them thoughout Moodle I
now have to call save_session("USER") which copies them back to the
session variable. This seems to be working well now.
Because I'm using $_SESSION etc now this will raise
the required minimum version of PHP to 4.1.0
