This is a result of a pretty intensive effort to make the form less
sucky, given the completion strings mess around. It partially solves
MDL-39419 too as it clarifies the course completion link in the course
administration block.
I must admit and record here that I'm pretty desperate by the current
state of the core_completion and how strings from it are inconsistently
used at various places with different meanings. For example the 'Completion
tracking' may mean the mode of how activities are tracked within the
course as well as the overall feature of course and activities tracking.
While a same phrase can be used in English for both this meanings, not
all languages have such luck and translating it is a pain in the ass.
Finally, let me give the credit for wording and UI design suggestions to
Helen Foster and all others who helped with this. This has been one of
the most ugliest forms in Moodle and we believe we made it better
(although we know it's far from perfect).
This patch does not alter the code, only some syntax fixes and
coding guidelines rules are applied. Strings are re-ordered
alphabetically with no change of their wording. PHP doc blocks
reconstructed using the Git log records.
Also, round course grades and remove hardcoded string.
Note: This patch also removes the ability to update the course grade
from the completion interface
Even though I've tweaked this and done some polishing, there is still plenty to do on it now in HEAD, mostly to do with UI, usability and strings, so we'll keep working on it. Aaron already has a number of improvements to add to it.
From now on, all English strings use the new syntax. They are not
eval()'ed any more and the only valid placeholders are {$a} and
{$a->foobar}. No extra quotes escaping, dollar sign escaping and putting
double percent signs.
The modified files were exported from AMOS database repository in the
new syntax and were re-ordered by stringid. Standard GNU/GPL and PHPdoc
blocks are added. Where there was no copyright note so far, I added the
default one with Martin Dougiamas as the copyright holder.
Live long and prosper.
