block is constructed. A new function exists to pump these notes out
in a standard way : print_recent_activity_note.
Module dependencies also updated because of this.
using such SERVER_NAME and HTTP_HOST variables.
It should help in servers having wrong Apache configurations, being
the cause of bad logins, referer problems....
Seems to work both under PHP 4.3 (linux) and PHP 5 (MacOS X).
Please, TEST it, specially in installation, upgrade and cron!
The visibility of coursemodules is now always set through the function set_coursemodule_visible() in order to make sure that the associated events get updated in the calendar appropriately.
If moving a coursemodule to a hidden section then the module is set to hidden as well and its events are hidden in the calendar.
If deleting a coursemodule its events are deleted from the calendar.
The function choose_from_menu() has an extra optional argument $disabled which, when set to true, will disable the menu.
For the sake of consistency the function set_groupmode_for_module has been renamed to set_coursemodule_groupmode and the functions show_course_module() and hide_course_module() have been combined to set_coursemodule_visible().
Added $user->theme and $course->theme choices, controlled by admin
variables on the main config variables page.
By default this is all turned off, since multiple themes can be
a little disorienting.
A hidden feature is session themes ... you can change the theme
on any page by passing theme=xxxx as a parameter. By default this
requires sesskey (so that people don't change theme on each other),
but this security can be switched off using a hidden variable
$CFG->allowthemechangeonurl = true; Good for quick tests.
Admin can put a site on hold during an upgrade or theme changing etc
Controlled by a file in dataroot, so it can also be controlled via command line:
touch moodledata/1/maintenance.html
rm moodledata/1/maintenance.html
