get_extra_user_fields to get a list of extra user fields for display (that are permitted for current user in given context). get_extra_user_fields_sql returns the same thing as a SELECT list.
get_user_field_name returns the display name of a user field (basically just get_string($field) except phone1=>phone)
This change:
- Renames the existing setting 'extrauserselectorfields' to 'showuseridentity'
in preparation for using it in more places. (Upgrade change, new version.)
- Adds a new capability moodle/site:viewuseridentity, now required in order
to see the extra fields; if you don't have the capability, you don't see them
- Slightly improves the display of extra fields in user selector list; it used
to be like 'sam marshall, 01234567, email@address' and is now
'sam marshall [01234567, email@address]' ie the fields are in square
brackets
- Turns feature on for the group selector - the feature was enabled for other
user selectors but not for the group selector. Tim did the disable code, he
thinks this may be to do with more people having access to group selector -
probably not a problem now it is controlled by capability.
The patch introduces a new field 'timecopied' that holds the timestamp
of when the given form was cloned last time. Using this field, we can
decide whether the form can be actually re-shared or not.
Note that the logic just hides the icon. It is meant as a usability
feature, not any real protection from sharing.
There is a new capability to manage all shared templates. Without this
capability, the user is allowed to delete just templates they previously
shared.
In the future, an option to edit the template directly might be added.
At the moment, the workaround is to pick the template into a temporary
assignment, edit it there and re-save it as a new template.
Every grading form can be basically in either DRAFT state (currently
being edited) or READY state (available for usage). For shared
templates, the status is not relevant at the moment and they are
automatically in the READY state.
The recent change completely removed support for general URIs and enforced strict URL validation which was breaking backwards compatibility and was not user friendly at all.
This patch finally adds full URI support with basic validation and fixes some older xhtml strict issues.
Please note we do not try to explain the difference between URL and URI to our users. Also keep in mind that mod/url has XSS risk and does not do any security validation of the data.
It can be easily included in official distribution again if somebody fixes it because there are no stored data, capabilities or versions. This will finally allow us to drop the outdate Smarty library form distribution package.
