Hi,
I am creating courses using SOAP functionality, using which I can send only pre-defined parameters to soap call. But I want to add extra fields to a course like place,deadline. How to add extra fields to a category and how is possible using SOAP call. Please help.
Thanks
Rajesh Pabbu
Dear Rajesh,
Course formats only configure the view of the existing data. SOAP technology is a web service, so I would recommend posting your question in the 'Web Services' forum for a more qualified answer.

Dear Rajesh,
I think your problem has two parts:
1st one: Modify the "course" block to add the new fields, this include to modify the database (table mld_course) and the graphic part.
2nd one: Modify the SOAP call (web service) to add the new parameters at /course/externallib.php methods:
create_courses_parametes: by adding the new fields
create_courses: I think Isn't necessary to modify this method, but you must review it
I aren't a moodle expert, but I think this is a hard task because this affect a lot of other modules.
Good Luck, Silvia.
Dear Silvia,
