All notable changes to local_cohortsignup are documented in this file.
The format is based on Keep a Changelog.

[Unreleased]

Changed

• Store the signup cohort selection in a MODE_SESSION MUC cache
  (db/caches.php, definition signupselection) instead of writing directly to
  the $SESSION global, per the Moodle Cache API guidance.

Fixed

• Removed the commented-out example block from db/upgrade.php that caused the
  savepoints CI check to fail (it read the example's future version
  2025070100 as a real savepoint higher than the plugin version).


• Removed an N+1 query pattern in the tracking report (index.php): referenced
  users and cohorts are now preloaded in bulk with get_records_select() and
  get_in_or_equal() and looked up in memory. User records are fetched with the
  full set of configured name fields so fullname() renders correctly.

[1.0.0] - 2025-06-17

Added

• Cohort selector injected into the core self-registration signup form via the
  extend_signup_form / validate_extend_signup_form callbacks.


• Automatic cohort assignment through a \core\event\user_created observer.


• Tracking table local_cohortsignup and an admin report.


• Settings: enable/disable, require selection, default cohort, allowed cohorts,
  show hidden cohorts, and logging.


• Custom events: cohort selected, user assigned, assignment failed.


• Full Privacy API provider (metadata, export, delete, userlist).


• PHPUnit and Behat test suites.


• GitHub Actions Moodle Plugin CI workflow.


• Support for Moodle 4.4, 4.5, 5.0, 5.1 and 5.2.
