I have not found any good way to add group of pupils ( class ) into course. It's difficulty if you have several hundrets of pupils.
We solved this by naming pupil's city field with code v2008a ... year (v2008) when pupil come into school and group ( a ) what is his/hers location. Then we closed this field from changes.
Then I add some code :
path: /admin/ roles/assign.php
Line numbers can change litle but you can find those lines.
about line 245:
if (!$contextusers = get_role_users($roleid, $context, false, 'u.id, u.firstname, u.lastname, u.email, u.city, ra.hidden'
$contextusers = array();
}
about line 259:
$selectsql = " AND ($FULLNAME $LIKE '%$searchtext%' OR email $LIKE '%$searchtext%' OR city $LIKE '%$searchtext') ";
$select .= $selectsql;
} else {
$selectsql = "";
}
about line 299:
$select = " SELECT u.id, u.firstname, u.lastname, u.email, u.city";
$countselect = "SELECT COUNT(u.id)";
$from = " FROM {$CFG->prefix}user u
about line 394:
$roleusers = get_role_users($roleid, $context, false, 'u.id, u.lastname, u.firstname, u.city');
if (!empty($roleusers)) {
$strroleusers = array();
Now when you give roles for pupils you can search those kids with city code.
Voila ! You get fast group of pupils for your course .
