RELEASE NOTE
[2018042400]

Added !important rule to list-style-type for block elements; Thanks to Github
user adpe for this! (Forgot to carry this forward to the version for 3.4)

[2017122700]

Removed deprecated function for icons and changed html structure; Thanks to
Github user adpe for this!

Organized changed code into several new functions to enhance readability &
maintainability, as well as to keep code complexity and function lengths
to a minimum

Updated styles.css to correctly address the unordered lists and remove list
style types

[2017111700]

Fixed errror in javascript so the error message will actually display when
no checkboxes are checked

[2017092900]

Refactored the javascript to remove all but two lint warnings

Updated documentation in the php files to remove code pre-check warnings

[2017092801]

Correct function call when drawing checkboxes from append() to appendChild(),
which the latest versions of Chrome and Firefox are fault-tolerant of, whereas
older versions of Firefox (possibly Chrome, too; unknown) were not and would
throw a javascript error when encountered

[2017092800]

Remove the javascript-enabled check and configuration page completely

[2017092600]

Re-implement the deletion confirmation page that displays after the user responds
in the affirmative to the javascript confirmation dialog box

Moved the table heading text into language strings

Added a configuration page and setting for controlling whether to have the block check
whether javascript is enabled in the user's browser

All new French language strings courtesy Google Translate
- Better translations are welcome

Hebrew translations have not been done; Any translations are welcome

[2017092000]

Fixed typo in the required Moodle version (an errant '1')

Fixed typo in the javascript causing checkboxes not to draw (a missing hyphen)

[2017091800]
*** Behavioural changes ***

Removed the deletion confirmation page. When deleting one or more modules using
Mass Actions, there is now only a Javascript confirmation. The confirmation page
felt redundant and so I removed it.

When making a selection from the "Select all in section" menu, the "Deselect all"
action is invoked first. In the event of a misclick, this eliminates the need to
click "Deselect all" or to manually uncheck any checked modules before making
the correct selection from the menu. However, it means that users can no longer
select all in two or more sections using the menu, which was probably a fairly
rare case.

Users of the OneTopic format may now use "Select all" to apply an action to all
modules in their course.

Users of the OneTopic format may now use "Select all in section" to select any
section in their course that has modules. Previously, they were able to only
select the section displayed on their screen. This makes the OneTopic course
format behave like all other course formats.

*** Technical changes ***

Converted from YUI to jQuery/AMD library

Added ./amd/src/block_massaction.js

Removed ./module.js and ./js/module_selector.js

applicable_formats() now uses course_format_uses_sections() to determine whether
to make Mass Actions available to a course format

get_content() now provides a two dimensional array of course data to the Javascript,
reducing the block's dependence on the DOM (and reducing its fragility)

Added several hidden inputs to the form submitted when the user chooses the action
to take on selected modules

Added the _self_test function

Changed 'moveleft' to 'outdent', 'moveright' to 'indent', 'moveto' to 'move', and
'dupto' to 'clone'

Renamed the 'perform_moveto' function as 'move_module' and the 'perform_dupto' function
as 'clone_module'

Removed the print_deletion_confirmation function

Removed code from the perform_deletion function that has long been obsolete, as it was
specific to Moodle 2.4 and earlier

Moved code duplicated in move_module(), clone_module(), and perform_deletion() to new functions
and replaced that code with function calls

Moved capability checks that previously happened prior to calling the functions to change
indentation or visibility to happen inside the functions, instead. This makes the timing
and location of the capability checks for these actions consistent with the timing and
location of the capability checks for the other actions.

Cleaned up the naming scheme for CSS class names and ids, with the overall goal being
to simplify them and make them more logical and predictable

Updated styles.css as necessary

Updated some language string keys to match the changes in naming conventions; this work
will probably be on-going

Removed some language strings that were clearly obsolete and no longer used

Change required Moodle version to 3.2 (2016102700)

Bump plugin version to 4.0.0 to signify this is not compatible with earlier
versions

[2016111501]

Fix bug with OneTopic format compatibility where, if the topics were not named
'Topic X' (where X is an integer greater than -1), the block would be unusable
because it would not draw checkboxes next to modules and would not correctly
populate all of its drop menus

[2016111500]

Remove h3 tag requirement from module.js so Mass Actions will work with themes
that use non-h3 tags for section headings, from Dan Davis (rndme)

[2016101301]

elements with an id matching the expected pattern

[2015032600]

Updated applicable_formats() to allow any course format, while still
preventing plugins and tags from using this block (sharpchi)

[2015022700]

Renamed README to README.txt

Added $plugin->component for Moodle 3.0 compatibility

Changed $plugin->release to an actual version number

Updated course formats for which this plugin is available to include all of:

*** Behavioural changes ***

Removed the deletion confirmation page. When deleting one or more modules using
Mass Actions, there is now only a Javascript confirmation. The confirmation page
felt redundant and so I removed it.

When making a selection from the "Select all in section" menu, the "Deselect all"
action is invoked first. In the event of a misclick, this eliminates the need to
click "Deselect all" or to manually uncheck any checked modules before making
the correct selection from the menu. However, it means that users can no longer
select all in two or more sections using the menu, which was probably a fairly
rare case.

Users of the OneTopic format may now use "Select all" to apply an action to all
modules in their course.

Users of the OneTopic format may now use "Select all in section" to select any
section in their course that has modules. Previously, they were able to only
select the section displayed on their screen. This makes the OneTopic course
format behave like all other course formats.

*** Technical changes ***

Converted from YUI to jQuery/AMD library

Added ./amd/src/block_massaction.js

Removed ./module.js and ./js/module_selector.js

applicable_formats() now uses course_format_uses_sections() to determine whether
to make Mass Actions available to a course format

get_content() now provides a two dimensional array of course data to the Javascript,
reducing the block's dependence on the DOM (and reducing its fragility)

Added several hidden inputs to the form submitted when the user chooses the action
to take on selected modules

Added the _self_test function

Changed 'moveleft' to 'outdent', 'moveright' to 'indent', 'moveto' to 'move', and
'dupto' to 'clone'

Renamed the 'perform_moveto' function as 'move_module' and the 'perform_dupto' function
as 'clone_module'

Removed the print_deletion_confirmation function

Removed code from the perform_deletion function that has long been obsolete, as it was
specific to Moodle 2.4 and earlier

Moved code duplicated in move_module(), clone_module(), and perform_deletion() to new functions
and replaced that code with function calls

Moved capability checks that previously happened prior to calling the functions to change
indentation or visibility to happen inside the functions, instead. This makes the timing
and location of the capability checks for these actions consistent with the timing and
location of the capability checks for the other actions.

Cleaned up the naming scheme for CSS class names and ids, with the overall goal being
to simplify them and make them more logical and predictable

Updated styles.css as necessary

Updated some language string keys to match the changes in naming conventions; this work
will probably be on-going

Removed some language strings that were clearly obsolete and no longer used

This is the Mass Actions block for Moodle 2.8 and 2.9. Its appearance and behaviors
are largely the same as the version for Moodle 1.9.
