Hi Daniel and Kyle. Great Block, awesome work smile
We are using this to great effect on www.freemoodle.org
However, I've noticed that the values of the new course are not being take from Settings > Site administration > Courses > Course default settings.
It would be perfect if these values could be applied to the course created by this Block. If that's too awkward, then maybe there could be setting in the Block configuration to allow this.
(If it was the former, then this code could be considered for addition into Core because it's much more powerful than the standard Course Request functionality.
As we don't have any of this yet, is it possible to add some Help documentation about where to change the course creation values?

The block looks good but we have hit a difficulty. The block was causing IE to go into quirks mode and so the page layout is upset. A colleague has suggested that:
most of the php scripts including the one that displays the block on the page includes a style sheet reference and other html code before the opening <?php tag which seems to be inappropriate. This means that a bunch of code is interpreted before it hits the opening tag which should be the first line of any page in Moodle. I got it working by copying the normal opening tags at the beginning of each php script. Technically, there are now 2 of the same tag generated in each page now, which isn’t tidy but the 2nd one gets ignored. This means the page can be rendered correctly in IE.

Thanks for the info. Kyle - much appreciated.

Hello Roland,
The version for 1.9 was very stable, 2.2.3 version had some reported bugs, So the version (CRM 2.2) for 2.3.1 is the most stable and bug free.
Roland Sherwood
This looks great! I notice there's a version compatible with 2.2.3 available here: https://github.com/Kylegoslin/Course-Request-Manager/tree/466c3c2b973c587f503b9cdcc29955b19d3ed6a3/Course%20Manager%20for%20Moodle%202.2.3/cmanager Are there any known issues with this earlier version?
