While working on the issue, I spotted these two places that were worth of
fixing. The first one is a trivial reminiscence of a previous refactoring,
after which both branches of the if() statement became equal.
The second one is actually a typo as in theory it could generate unexpected
input fields with the name like qPP1. Luckily this never happened due to the
way how survey questions are hardcoded (there are no questions with the type 2
that would require two answers to their subquestions).
In MDL-7501, we stopped using rowspanning cells in the form table due to
accessibility. That had introduced a regression so in the COLLES P+A survey,
all the rows were displayed with the same background colour. This patch returns
the previous behaviour that each couple of items can be distinguished by the
background colour.
Also, there is no need to display "I prefer that" and "I found that" as a small
text any more. It had made sense in rowspanning layout but not after MDL-7501
was fixed.
And finally, as all items are enumerated now sequentially, there are actually
48 lines, each couple covering one question in two variants. I think it's
correct to reflect this in the description of the form so the text was slightly
amended.
This basically reverts the commit 5196df589b that
I believe was a result of misunderstanding of how question type field is
(ab)used in the Survey module. As it took significant time to get familiar with
the overall logic of questions and their processing in the module, I left my
findings in added inline comments. The point is that it is $question->type that
matters. Types of questions listed as subquestions in the multi field is
irrelevant in that case (and all have it set to 1 IIRC).
This patch re-enables the "COLLES (Preferred and Actual)" survey type that did
not work at all due to regression.
GD PHP extension is now required. Add-ons need to remove $CFG->gdversion tests. The worst case regression is that add-on will think GD is not available.
For modules that still used the 'old' generic object return from _get_coursemodule_info instead of returning a cached_cm_info object, I changed them to use the new format as part of this. This made a few areas of code regarding onclick links slightly nicer.
* Added the component and ratingarea fields and implemented it throughout
the rating API as mandatory fields
* Cleanup rating indexes
* Upgrade forum/data/glossary ratings
* Moved the logic in the render_rating method to methods of the rating object.
* Added new callback for checking ratingareas
* Cleaned comments here and there
* Mark the xxx_get_participants methods as deprecated
* Refactor rate_ajax and ratingsuser_can_view_aggregate methods
* Cleaned up rating/index.php to use html_table object and moved inline styles to CSS.
* Added missing properties of the rating object that were being set throughout the rating
API.
Navigation has now been re-ordered in accordance with http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:Navigation_2.0_structure.
This has led to several changes in the way in which navigation is generated included API changes, most notably using the
navigation_nodes add method now returns the newly added node rather than the key.
At the same time the global_navigation_tree block has been renamed to navigation and settings_navigation_tree to settings.
Very big theme changes, standardold theme has been split into two themes base and standard. Base theme contains only CSS that is absolutly required (e.g. layout, white space rules, specific widths) and standard (which now looks like standardwhite) contains all the frills.
The following noteable changes have also been made:
* Plugin CSS has been pushed back into the plugin directories as styles.css files.
* Install_print_header has been corrected.
* Redundant or deprecated rules have been removed.
* Several minor class changes throughout Moodle.
* CSS is now single line rules not multiline indented.
* Installs with theme=standardold automatically switch to standard.
* body classes / id now have prefixes to make it clearer what they are and avoid conflicts.
Also worth noting:
* There is still alot of tweaking that is required to get everything looking as it is supposed to, please be patient or better yet help out.
* I am currently working on the documentation for the themes system... it will be here soon.
The following minor changes were also made:
* Added roles links to the navigation automatically
* Handling of block context for settings navigation
* Tidied up init code for settings navigation
* class html_component does not exist any more
* class html_table rendered via html_writer::table()
* html_table, html_table_row and html_table_cell have public $attributes property to set their CSS classes
* dropped rotateheaders feature, should be added again after more research of possible ways (<svg> is not nice IMHO)
* dropped possibility to define CSS classes for table heading, body and footer - can be easily done and better done using just table class and context
* Upgraded legacy code to use PAGE and OUTPUT methods
* Added integration with the new navigation blocks
* Fixed up several bugs within the download script
