The user_selector classes supported custom list of extra identity
fields. But they should obey the configured user policy and respect the
privacy setting made by site administrators. So the list of user
identifiers should never be hard-coded, but the setting
$CFG->showuseridentity should be always respected.
Custom AJAX handlers for the form autocomplete fields can now optionally
return string in their processResults() callback. If a string is
returned, it is displayed instead of the list of suggested items.
The string is displayed same way as we inform about no available
suggestions.
- Clumsy fallback only when there is no full-text search support
- Mimic solr tests
- pgsql tokenization using simple configuration
- workaround for mysql '*' search issue
- total results proper calculation
- SQL server FTS support
- Standarize dml full-text search checkings
- Upgrade note about the new dml method
- Set search_simpledb as default engine if no solr config
- Define sitepolicy handler manager class, base class and the core handler
- Allow to set a plugin as sitepolicyhandler that implements the sitepolicy API
- Modify web services to return information from the 3rd party handler instead of core if needed
The patch introduces a new site setting 'sitepolicyhandler' that can be
either empty or contain a plugin component name. If it is empty, the
site policy feature keeps working as before and the core keeps the
control over it.
If a plugin is specified, it is expected to implement the callback
'site_policy_handler' in its lib.php file. The callback should return a
URL to a script where the user can accept the site policies. The plugin
itself is responsible for setting the 'policyagreed' flag in the users
table. The callback may return an empty value, in which case the user
can continue using the site without being redirected.
The patch adds support for a new pre-config flag NO_SITEPOLICY_CHECK.
This constant should be defined and set to true if we should not check
the user's policyagreed status during the require_login().
This is for pages where the user actually accepts the site policies and
helps to avoid the redirect loop.
Starting with Moodle 3.5 the XMLDB->PATH attribute is checked
to be correct and pointing to the correct plugin directory.
It only was used for writing PHP savepoints code, but better we
ask for strict correctness.
With this patch applied, neither the XMLDB Editor neither install
will be able to load a file with wrong PATH anymore.
The patch increases the maximum supported precision (total number of
digits) for numeric (decimal) fields to 38 digits (current limit on
Oracle and MSSQL).
Additionally, we add our own limit for the whole number part of numeric
fields so they are no longer than integer fields (20 digits). This is to
make it easier to eventually convert from one field type to another.
Note that PHP floats commonly support precision of roughly 15 digits
anyway.
