For a long time, Moodle has had the feature to force the language
for a whole course. This change adds the same feature at activity
level.
The course-level feature was controlled by a capability
moodle/course:setforcedlanguage, and I decided to use the same
capability to control this feature. I think a new capability would be
overkill.
Removal of the callback get_shortcuts() and its plugin implementations.
The private methods in the content_item_readonly_repository class
which were only used by the callback hook logic are also removed.
- Replace all individual calls to add all columns, filters and
conditions on the cohorts datasource with the new
method add_all_from_entities().
- Replace all individual calls to add all columns, filters and
conditions on the courses datasource with the new
method add_all_from_entities().
- Replace all individual calls to add all columns, filters and
conditions on the users datasource with the new
method add_all_from_entity().
These methods can be called via UI, and would throw confusing exceptions
if a user entered "unsafe" characters in a search input (e.g. "<").
Defer cleaning of supplied text to inside the methods.
- Introduce core_course_category::get_nearest_editable_subcategory()
- This function will return the first creatable/manageable category
for current user
- With this new function, we can fix the issue that the users with
course management or creation permision at category level cannot see
the manage menu on My courses page
Previously, the timeline block courses view included all courses in
alphabetical order, whether they contained any events matching the
relevant filters or not. This could be tedious and misleading if there
were many courses with no events appearing before a course which did
have matching events. Now, courses are only included if they contain
events matching the currently set time filter and search term. When
those values are modified, the block will be refreshed and fetch
results for the current values, and also takes these into
consideration when determining whether to display the show more courses
button.
The menubar role defined in the "menubar d-flex" element is not
required and it's causing the following error "Required ARIA children
role not present: group, menuitemradio, menuitem, menuitemcheckbox".
The format_string() function does half html escaping. It escapes < and >
characters, but does not escape ". Therefore, it put us in a situation
where neither {{}}, nor {{{}}} are suitable in templates. If we use {{}}
for an attribute (like title or aria-label), then < and > characters
will be double escaped. On the other hand, if we use {{{}}} there, a
double quote character will break HTML when it is used in an attribute.
Therefore, neither {{}}, nore {{{}}} are usable in html attributes.
Moreover, The title attribute here was redundant because it had the same
value as the link's text.
Create new entity for exposing report data on course categories,
joining it to the course entity to provide data for the reportbuilder
editor.
