|

|
upon:
|
|

|
|
forum_tp_count_discussion_read_records
|
|
forum_get_user_discussions
|
|
forum_tp_count_forum_posts
|
|
forum_tp_count_forum_read_records
|
|
forum_get_open_modes
|
|
forum_get_child_posts
|
|
forum_get_discussion_posts
|
|
forum_get_ratings
|
|
forum_get_tracking_link
|
|
forum_tp_count_discussion_unread_posts
|
|
forum_convert_to_roles
|
|
forum_tp_get_read_records
|
|
forum_tp_get_discussion_read_records
|
|
forum_user_enrolled
|
|
forum_user_can_view_post
|
|
* The following functions have been deprecated and replaced. Please see the phpdoc for each on the new function to use instead:
|
|
* forum_is_subscribed
|
|
* forum_subscribe
|
|
* forum_unsubscribe
|
|
* forum_subscribed_users
|
|
* forum_is_forcesubscribed
|
|
* forum_forcesubscribe
|
|
* forum_get_forcesubscribed
|
|
* forum_get_subscribed_forums
|
|
* forum_get_optional_subscribed_forums
|
|
* forum_get_potential_subscribers
|
|
* External function mod_forum_external::get_forum_discussions has been deprecated.
|
|
Use mod_forum_external::get_forum_discussions_paginated instead.
|
|
|
|
=== 2.6 ===
|
|
|
|
* The file post_form.php should not be included, the class it contained has
|
|
been moved so that it can benefit from autoloading.
|
|
* The function forum_shorten_post() has been deprecated. It was doing a poor
|
|
job of shortening forum post text and the shorten_text() function does a
|
|
much better job.
|
|
* The constant FORUM_TRACKING_ON has been deprecated and replaced by
|
|
FORUM_TRACKING_FORCED. The value between them is maintained, so they are
|
|
interchangeable, but code should migrate to the new name.
|
|
|
|
=== 2.5 ===
|
|
|
|
The function forum_check_throttling has been changed so that a warning object is returned when a user has reached the 'Post threshold for warning' or
|
|
'Post threshold for blocking' setting, rather than echoing this on screen. This allows the warning to be moved inside the post form as it can be added
|
|
as a HTML element, where it is more noticeable. False is returned if there is no need to warn, or restrict the user from posting - see MDL-39182.
|
|
|
|
=== 2.3.5, 2.4.2 ===
|
|
|
|
* mod/forum:allowforcesubscribe capability will be forcefully assigned to frontpage role, as it was mistakenly missed off
|
|
when the capability was initially created. If you don't want users with frontpage role to get forum (with forcesubscribe) emails,
|
|
then please remove this capability for frontpage role.
