This patch adds new capabilities:
'mod/forum:postprivatereply' - whether a user is able to post private replies; and
'mod/forum:readprivatereplies' - whether a user is able to read private replies.
Private replies are only visible to the intended recipient (the author of
the parent post), the author of the private reply, and those with the
ability to read private replies.
If a post is private then it cannot be replied to further.
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.
Changed the CSS for unread styling to no longer use ids because the
rules are too specific and override other elements with the .unread
class on the forum pages.
This adds the following changes when viewing a list of discussions and
forum_enabletimedposts is turned on.
* Discussions a student wouldnt see right now are dimmed (timestart in
future or timeend in the past).
* A icon appears next to the discussion subject, the tooltip for this
icon displays the display start and/or end time. This only appears for
the user that made the discussion or has permission to
viewhiddentimedposts.
These two changes achieve a couple of important things, namely, teachers
will not mistakenly think their students can see a discussion when
viewing the list if they've later forgot that they set a time limit on
it (or indeed if someone else put it on their discussion without them
realising). Additionally it makes it easy to see from the list when
different discussions are set to be released without having to go in and
edit them to find out.

With the implementation of per-discussion subscription, the current
discussion's subscription state must be shown.
Since this state belongs to the discussion rather than the forum, it
should be shown accordingly. This change therefore includes the addition
of the discussion name as a heading on the page.
Changes the indenting of forum replies to be relative to the width of
the parent container, so the indent decreases as threads get nested
deeper. Also reduces the indent size automatically for smaller screen
sizes.
The display mode selector is supposed to display in the middle of the
row. Move discussion selector should be on the right, portfolio export
selector on the left. Thanks Sam Marshall for the report and testing the
patches.
Major tasks undertaken in this patch:
* New format_text argument, overflowdiv.
* New page layout Report.
* Review of all format_text calls.
* Added support for the report layout to all themes.
* Changed forum post display from tables to divs.
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.
