Blocks

OK - I have finally found a way to correct this. I wanted teachers (non editing) to be able to change their profile from the admin block in the same way that editing teachers and students could do - without having to click on the link at the bottom of the page.

I edited moodle/blocks/admin/block_admin.php

I went to the line that reads:

        if (isteacher($this->instance->pageid)) {

If you scroll down a few lines, underneath the line:

            if ($isteacheredit) {

you will see the following lines:

            $fullname = fullname($USER, true);
            $editmyprofile = '<a title="'.$fullname.'" href="'.$CFG->wwwroot.'/user/edit.php?id='.$USER->id.'&amp;course='.$this->instance->pageid.'">'.get_string('editmyprofile').'</a>';
            if (empty($USER->description)) {
                $this->content->items[]= $editmyprofile." <blink>*</blink>";
            } else {
                $this->content->items[]= $editmyprofile;
            }
            $this->content->icons[]='<img src="'.$CFG->pixpath.'/i/user.gif" height="16" width="16" alt="" />';

I simply moved all of these lines so they can underneath:

        if (isteacher($this->instance->pageid)) {

and came before:

            if ($isteacheredit) {

This worked a treat. Have tested it and it seems ot be working everywhere just fine.

Relief!
