Previously this used the length of the message stored in the database,
before scripts etc are cleaned to display the content. That resulted
in cases where the count would seem much larger than the message size.
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.
This commit reviews all continue uses in core happening within a
loop / switch / case hierarchy. This does not cover:
- Changes to libraries. Will be handled in another issue / commit.
- Uses out from loops, will be reviewed by other commit.
The policy followed has been:
- When possible, take rid of the continue.
- When clearly the intention was to jump to next element in loop
change to continue 2
- When it was not clear, keep old behavior switching to break, no
matter how weird the behavior may be.
Significant string changes:
* withselectedusers_help, core - removing mention of 'Add a common note'
as the option no longer exists
* considereddigitalminor and digitalminor_desc, core - more
child-friendly wording
* configmessagingallusers, core_admin - clearer explanation
* auth_dbtype, auth_db - fixed broken link
Replace the anchor tags in forum posts containing the postid but no href with
an id on the element containing the post. Use rel="bookmark" for perma links
and update the styling so they look visually the same.
Improve the format of the HTML representing a forum post.
1. Use <article> tag to mark it correctly.
2. Use <time> tag to include the real datetime information.
3. Use <address> tag to specify who and when the post came from.
4. Use heading level tags to mark the subject of each post.
5. Properly nest reply posts within their parent <article>
6. Use a header tab for each article to split the metadata from the content.
7. Use CSS to separate links, not text content.
Because posts are now nested properly, the heading for each one refers to it's own article
and we don't need to generate arbitrary heading level tags depending on how deep the post
is nested.
Thanks to MDL-49398, we can separate the combined user session and role
definition cache clearing function into two separate functions. At the
same time, we want to identify and remove mark_dirty() calls that were
added for role definition changes but were incorrectly left behind.
Change highlights:
- Remove unnecessary mark_dirty() calls performed after
assign_capability(), unassign_capability(), delete_role(),
deleted contexts, brand new contexts
- Move role definition cache clear from the user-centric
accesslib_clear_all_caches() to the newly created,
role-dedicated accesslib_reset_role_cache()
The deleted flag was introduced through the Privacy API and was used
for post selection for the rss feed. In there it was used in the
wrong way, which lead to the exclusion of all non deleted posts instead
of excluding all deleted ones.
This commit fixes this problem.
