Is it possible to use PHP in a resource label? I would like to be able to show display a user's name and show them what courses they have taken along with what is assigned to them.
Ideally I would query the DB, then display this info. Every time I try to save code throught the editor it disappears. I also tried to hard code the PHP code into the mdl_label table and that didn't work either.
Any help would be appreciated.
PHP code inserted in label texts (even directly in the database) is never executed as this would pose some serious security threats.
A quick hack...
Copy the files of the courseformat you are using (in course/format) and create your own course format.
Add the code you would like to be included in course/format/yourformat/format.php
I guess the bottom of section 0 could be a good place to display this kind of information. To do this look up
echo '</td>';
echo '<td class="right side"> </td>';
echo '</tr>';
echo '<tr class="section separator"><td colspan="3" class="spacer"></td></tr>';
and add your php code above these lines.
