The capabilities changed ('contextlevel' => CONTEXT_COURSE changed to 'contextlevel' => CONTEXT_MODULE) are: * moodle/site:accessallgroups * moodle/site:viewfullnames * moodle/site:trustcontent * moodle/site:viewuseridentity This list came from reviewing the _get_extra_capabilities functions in all core activities. They were all somewhat inconsistent, but I think it makes sense that these capabilities are consistently overridable in all activities. E.g. moodle/site:accessallgroups affects conditional availability even if there is no other user of groups, and moodle/site:viewuseridentity and moodle/site:viewfullnames affect the logs report, if nothing else. As a result of this, several _get_extra_capabilities functions are no longer needed, and all the rest have been simplified.
ACTIVITY MODULES ---------------- These are main modules in Moodle, allowing various activities. Each of these modules contains a number of expected components: mod_form.php: a form to setup/update a module instance version.php: defines some meta-info and provides upgrading code pix/icon.gif: a 16x16 icon for the module db/install.xml: an SQL dump of all the required db tables and data index.php: a page to list all instances in a course view.php: a page to view a particular instance lib.php: any/all functions defined by the module should be in here. constants should be defined using MODULENAME_xxxxxx functions should be defined using modulename_xxxxxx There are a number of standard functions: modulename_add_instance() modulename_update_instance() modulename_delete_instance() modulename_user_complete() modulename_user_outline() modulename_cron() modulename_print_recent_activity() If you are a developer and interested in developing new Modules see: Moodle Documentation: http://moodle.org/doc Moodle Community: http://moodle.org/community
