This feature adds an admin tool for creating custom licenses.
Now custom licenses can be added and amended in Moodle, and the site
default can be set to a custom license.
Core licenses remain hard-coded and are uneditable, so they will always
require update within Moodle core updates, and maintain their
internationalisation through core language strings.
This also includes fundamental changes to the license API including
the addition of license caching and deprecation of no longer required
admin settings for license management.
For Dataformats that support exporting HTML content, provide an API for
converting images within that content to something suitable for the format.
This fixes an issue with the PDF writer when it encountered a pluginfile.php
image, which it tried to request via HTTP without an active session. This
resulted in a 303 header returned by Moodle instead of the actual image,
causing an exception in the underlying TCPDF library.
In 39770792ca read-only sessions were allowed.
In the redis case, as called from the mobile application,
this can lead to returning 'false' for session rather than ''.
This patch adds better core support for copying courses.
There is now a simplified and dedicated UI for copying
courses. This can be accessed from the course context
menu or course management screens.
All backups are done asynchronously and there can be multiple
copies of a course in flight at once.
- Add MDL codes to @deprecated.
- Add @todo tag for future 4.3 phase 2 deprecation.
- Deprecate global scope functions:
- cron_execute_plugin_type().
- cron_bc_hack_plugin_functions().
(moving them to deprecatelib).
- Document it in main upgrade.txt
There are some changes to make this possible:
- Enable by default the Mobile notifications plugin
- Implement a new callback for core -> plugins communication
- Generate an Airnotifier access key in the callback when needed
In fact, rather than fix the old logic, I noticed that the correct
logic was already implemented in get_users_by_capability. So, I
refactored to extract the working version into a function, which it
turns out can have exactly the same API as get_with_capability_join,
which was convenient.
