Onetopic format

Maintained by David Herney
Course format that allows showing each topic in a tab, keeping the current tab between calls to resources, in such a way that when it returns from a module as the blog or the glossary it returns to tab from where you started. This format is based on the Moodle standard format: "Topics".

Re: David Hernet Bernai
OneTopic does indeed seem to be working using the code that you linked to on the 29th. I had a problem with it trying to load a course that had been set to onetopic before the upgrade to 2.3 but did not yet have any topics set up. This caused a crash. I had to change line 133 of "renderer.php" to read
$forward = $sectionno;
and then the page loaded (though the numbering was out). I then changed the line back to read:
$forward = $sectionno + 1;
and the problem went away. However, I have my course set to 10 sections, but now there are 11 buttons - because the index is now zero based so it seems there is an extra page. I can work around this now I know it's there but it was an unexpected inclusion.
May you live in peace David!
I do find errors when I checked this format with Moodle 2.3. Can you please update it, so it works. We are going to release our project by Aug 5 and are depending totally on OneTopic format.
Hola...
ya liberé una primera versión del formato para la versión 2.3 de moodle. Necesito ayuda para probarlo y estaré atento a los comentarios.
Aprovechando la nueva variable de configuración de los cursos "course display", introduje un manejo de la sesión inicial o "tema cero". Cuando el curso se configura para ser mostrado como múltiples páginas entonces la sección cero se muestra sobre las pestañas, cuando la configuración es para ver el curso como una sola página entonces la sección cero se ve como la primera pestaña.
Estaré atento entonces a los comentarios de las personas que me puedan ayudar a probar el formato. Para una mejor gestión de los errores aconsejo reportarlos en el foro del formato que se encuentra en: http://aprendeenlinea.udea.edu.co/lms/investigacion/mod/forum/view.php?id=1218
Saludos
En este momento me encuentro actualizando el formato para la versión 2.3 de moodle, sin embargo la estructura de los formatos de curso cambiaron sustancialmente y me demoraré un poco en replicar todos los cambios, sobre todo por la eliminación de la tabla course_display. Esta semana subiré una actualización parcial mientras adecuo todas las nuevas funcionalidades.
Saludos

In this moment, i am upgrading the format to moodle 2.3 but exist a problem because moodle official developers deleted the course_display table, this week I upload a parcial version of onetopic format.
Regards

Fatal error: Call to undefined function course_set_display() in /var/www/moodle/course/format/onetopic/format.php on line 48
This is what I get in 2.3. Any ideas how to fix this? I love the onetopic format. This should be a standard part of Moodle.
Muchas gracias David!
También me encanta el formato (lo he probado en 2.0.X y trabaja perfecto)!
Saludos!!
I love onetopic very much!! The onetopic format worked fine until 2.2..x but does not in 2.3.beta. The information under the navigationbar is gone: changed call to context?
First of all, it is a very nice format. But may be a small "nice to have" anyway.
Just making more easy to move an item from one topic to another.
- e.g. making the topic name an active target or making the view in edit mode similar to that one in topic format or ...

Hi...
I tried the format in Moodle 2.2.1+ (Build: 20120112) without problems in Debian GNU/Linux 6.0 (squeeze).
Check the file permissions, apache need read all the format files. Also, Check the installation, Ubuntu and Windows work similarly in this case, if moodle work the format work.
Regards
hi all.
I m using moodle 2.2.1+ build (20120127) on ubuntu. but this format doesn't seem to work. But when i try it on windows with same version it works fine.
Can anyone suggest what should i do in order to use it on ubuntu 11.10
Hi Imbu, I think that it is not possible. This functionality not exists to any course format and depend on how moodle manage them.
Bye
Hola David,
I am contacting you for the following:
I have been asked if it is possible to keep the tabs available even when entering an activity.
the end users explained to me that this would facilitate a lot navigation.
Let me know please if that is feasible and if a lot effort is needed to include that extra.
congratulation for your plugin is robuts, simple and elegant!
warm regards
Imbu
¡Listo! Publicada la versión para moodle 2.2+, agradezco me ayuden a probar y cualquier comentario es bienvenido.
ok
Dear Sergio, That is my format, very odd as the version.php file is correct, please could you zip up your whole 'topcoll' folder and put it into a new discussion topic on http://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=47 so I can see what is going on.
Regards,
Gareth
