Description


A tree based expanding menu block with option to include links to the Gradebook, Calendar, Blog Menu and Messages blocks.

In the latest version of the block made for Moodle 1.9.x " Custom Links" http:// and ftp:// links can be defined and included in the Course Menu tree.

The block includes a Control Panel to administer the course. The appearance of the tree can be controlled with the "Expandable Tree" and "Activate Chapter Grouping" controls.

We added some new functionality to this block making it possible to order and turn on/off certain option such as:

  • Default site wide settings
  • Control Panel
  • Calendar
  • Blog Menu
  • Messages
  • Show All Sections
  • Expandable Tree
  • Activate Chapter Grouping
  • Custom Links

The settings are done on a per course basis. The block is freely available under the GPLv3.

Report bugs to cm-issues@netsapiensis.se

Please send us information about the following:

  • Operating system name and version
  • Database name and version
  • PHP version
  • Moodle version
  • Course menu version
  • Theme used
  • Steps to reproduce the bug
  • send a few screenshots

I've installed this, but when I go to the admin page I see that it is listed as blockname and when I go to settings, I have two blank boxes. One asking for the "block_course_menu_teachermanual_url:" ad the other asking for the "block_course_menu_studentmanual_url:"

I have looked and cannot find them anywhere. Can you please tell me where they are and will that make the block visible and workable?

Thanks

OK So I have the course menu block visible now, but I cannot get any text next to the icons for each topic. Only three dots are there. Clicking on them selects the topic, but there is nothing which says that is what happens.
How do I add labels to the icons to make it clear that this is a method of selecting topics??
Thanks

I have downloaded for Moodle 1.8 but have encountered a problem, can anyone help. When adding the course menu block on some courses it list the topics as numberes ie: topic 1, topic 2 etc on others it lists the topics by the lable title given to that topic ie: numeracy, literacy etc. and sometimes it gives a mix of numbers and titles. Bizarre I know, can anyone help.

Hi

This is neat...just one potential problem in 1.8...If there is any bad html in your header...the course can take minutes to load as the server seems to be running at 100% memory usage.

I don't know if this is the correct place to ask for help, so please let me know if I should post this somewhere else. I have a teacher whose course menu admin page is broken. The topoic and chapter table does not even show up, so he cannot move topics from chapter to chapter. The features, such as control panel, gradebook and calendar all show up in one row at the top of the screen, while the buttons to move them up and down are in their usual places with no text or icons beside them. Course menu works just fine in all other courses on our site. Deleting and re-adding the course menu block does not solve the problem. I suspect to correct this, I need to edit tables in the database. Can anyone help me figure out what I need to do?

thanks,

Matt

Hi

Moodle 1.9 test bed and same issue with the [blockname] thing.

I didn't want to spend too much time on this issue as it is a test bed and would just not include it in the final but while I was troubleshooting the issue I managed to fix it. It is not a clean fix but it worked and I will leave it up to you to clean up.

1) Copy the ..lang\en_utf8\block_course_menu.php to ..lang\en_utf8\b.php. I left an original copy there incase something was pointing to it correctly.

2) Open all the php files in the block and rename 'block_course_menu' to 'b'

3) Refresh the block.

The issue is something to do with the lang file I am sure, perhaps its conflicting with some internal names.  

Next issue was the teachermanualurl in the Settings page. This is due to them missing in the lang doc. So in my quick fix I added them in to both php files.

1) open lang\en_utf8\block_course_menu.php & ..lang\en_utf8\b.php

2) add the following just after the <?php line

$string['teachermanualurl'] = 'URL of the Teacher manual';
$string['studentmanualurl'] = 'URL of the Student manual';

3) Save both files

 

Next Issue "

1) Open blocks\course_menu\config_global.html

2) Edit / Replace

<td align="right"><p>block_course_menu_teachermanual_url:</td>

to

<td><td>

3) Edit / Replace

<td align="right"><p>block_course_menu_studentmanual_url:</td>

to

<td><td>

4) Refresh page

*If you want to make it look nicer then its just some html coding needed*

Thats as far as I have got as I said, I didn't really want to spend too much time on this block issue.

block_course_menu_teachermanual_url:" in the Settings page. As far as I can tell its hard coded into the html. I just deleted it.

Hi there,
I've recently installed the 1.8 Download of Course Menu and installed into Moodle 1.9.1. I've experienced a problem in when configuring the block, you can't enable any of the options. When I try to enable one of the options (like Blogmenu) I get a javascript saying "document.forms[0].blogmenu is undefined"

Has anyone experienced this and got any ideas on how to fix it? It has happened to me in Moodle 1.8 too, so I'm guessing it's not a version problem. Will there be release of this block for 1.9?

Cheers
Michael

This is wonderful! Thank you for sharing.

I have a question/request. I currently have a teacher who is interested in being able to select multiple sections at one time for viewing.

For example: She has 10 sections, she wants to hide all the sections except for 2,6, & 8. Any recommendations?

Thanks again! sonrisa

Hi

Regarding my post on the 15th July 2008, its been a while but I think where it says:

2) Open all the php files in the block and rename 'block_course_menu' to 'b'

It should read

2) Open config_global.html in the block and rename 'block_course_menu' to 'b'

and you should also include the quotation marks.

i.e.

<?php print_string('teachermanualurl','block_course_menu');?>

to

<?php print_string('teachermanualurl','b');?>

and

<?php print_string('studentmanualurl','b'block_course_menu');?>

to

<?php print_string('studentmanualurl','b');?>

Hi,

Love this course menu module.

For some reason, the icons (picture of folders) don't show up in my menu.  I'd like this.

How can I make this happen as shown in your example screenshot?

Thanks much.

Hi again,

One more question about this module. 

I can't seem to figure out how to make the custom links work inside the Course Menu listing.

Could be, I'm misunderstanding.

In one of my courses, Each block has a "Title" for the lesson and within the block (or lesson), there are small "Unit" lessons (Unit 1, Unit 2, Unit 3 and Unit 4).  Will the Custom Links include these Unit Titles also?

Thank you.

Ms. Letha

Hiya. Just installed this for the first time. Install went smoothly, but when I go to Admin / Modules / Blocks / Manage Blocks and click on Settings, I get:

After tinkering with the block and changing settings, everything else seems to work fine.

The fix to resolve the 1.9 goofy {{BLOCKS}} issue follows.

1. Navigate to the blocks\course_menu\lang directory

2. create a directory "en_utf8"

3. move the "block_course_menu.php" file in the root of the course_menu\lang directory to the newly created "en_utf8" folder.

Hope it helps!

Corbett

Another issue with latest version (1.9)

Upon using the 'Activate Chapter Grouping' function, all the chapter titles change from the default 'Chapter 1', 'Chapter 2' text (or whatever text I have added in their place) to three dots '...'. It does this for each chapter added.

Hi Jen, that error is a simple fix:

1) Open for editing (not in a web browser): yourmoodle/blocks/course_menu/block_course_menu.php

2) Find: function get_content() {

3) After the line: global $CFG, $USER;

4) ...add: $this->content->footer = '';

(Or, of you like, add some text in.)

Moodle complains if this variable isn't set, but it can be set and empty.

Regards,

Paul.

With a fresh 1.9.5+ install, I see hidden topics/sections (greyed/lighter) in the menu (as a student). They cannot go to that topic/section when clicking (fine) but the name *is* visible (not fine).

As a teacher or admin, I see the hidden sections/topics and I can go to them (as expected).

I've used this block for a long time and this is the first time I've had this issue.

Hi Paul

Thanks for the email as you were right i did not get your reply. Ok that fixed 1 error now when i turn debugging on I get this one.

Warning: Division by zero in /usr/share/moodle/blocks/course_menu/block_course_menu.php on line 480

Any ideas would be very welcomed as course_menu appears to work ok for some courses but not for others.

when i add the course menu block into the course it appears blank but the hide and unhide other chapters appears to work as well as the jump to, just the block menu does not.

Also when you go to configure the block there is nothing to configure.

Many Thanks
Jen

I really like this block, works great! (mostly)

I have one course that no longer shows anything within the block.  It used to, and I don`t know when it stopped exactly but it no longer shows any content while all other courses I`ve added to have no problems.

I`ve tried turning on debugging to see what appears and this is the error that comes up...

Notice: Undefined property: footer in /home2/notredam/public_html/moodle/blocks/moodleblock.class.php on line 355

however... I get this error in courses where the course menu block is working perfectly, so I don`t expect this error help too much.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Great work!
I just installed it in Moodle 1.9.5+ and it works perfect.
Issue that I found was with configuration of the block.

You can make some link invisible, but still be able to visite the links. All pages should work with permission so that no one get access to things that are invisible.

Someone earlier mentioned only three dots appearing where the link name should be. I am having the same issue with the latest version and Moodle 1.95+. The pop-up title shows up fine (see attached) but the ellipses shows instead of the name for the links. It's almost as if the code that handles the truncating of the text is confused somehow.

Has anyone else experienced this? Any solution?

Regarding the loss of link names, this seems to be specific to the theme, the block works fine for us with the standard theme, but not edumoodle or fishbowl. I think this is a new issue as well, as it did not show up on our testbed server until last week when I updated from a 1.9.5 that was a month or two old to the 20090923 release. I am guessing it is a dhtml issue. I was going to have a go, but my skills in this regard are not great.

Hi,

got a question as well: does the CourseMenu Module work with the "YUI Menu" Module (http://moodle.org/mod/data/view.php?rid=915&page=559). I mean: can I install both of them - or do they interfear each other somehow???

Comments welcome guiño

I came across a problem with a course. For some reason the course menu block displays absolutely nothing for this course. Ive tried to back it up and load it into a new course where the menu works and as soon as the restore is done all items disappear again. I tried to only restore files and it still does the same. Is there a special file structure that may be wrong with this specific course?

This is on a test system of 1.9.5+

Paul Vaughan, you fix does not seem to work. I am using the latest version 1.9.7+.

This problem only happens when I change the top chapter 1 to any desired text they then all become "..."'s

If I leave the top one blank, all of the other labels are fine and the top one is blank.

Any ideas?

The problem is with content.php

Line 282 this script i have commented out:

// check if we already have truncated this node
// truncObj = truncated.find(chapRoot.labelElId);
// if (!(truncObj === false)) {
// chapRoot.label = chapRoot.label.substring(0, truncObj.length);
// chapRoot.label += (truncObj.append ? '...' : '' );
// }

Works fine now. Basically is it handling the truncation incorrectly and just not returning the text with the truncation.

Hi ,
yes .the problem is this lines. but not delete.
instead of

if (!(truncObj === false)) {

to

if (!(truncObj == false)) {

if structure is used two equal.

come easy.
