I have just migrated my moodle (2.5) site to centos 7.4
The moodle link is https://my-server-ip/abc
FOr login, the link refers to https://my-server-ip/abc/dashboard/login.php --> this link works fine when I access it from the login hyperlink.
However if I try to access the dashboard from the navigation block as picture below, it points to the old link.
How do I update this dashboard link on the navigation block?
There's no such link in *core* Moodle so that link looks like a customisation on your site of some sort.
Would you have any idea where this customisation is usually done?
There's no "official" way to add items to the navigation menu so it's very hard to say. As the link would seem to be hard coded, I would 'grep' the code for the url string (or part of it).
There's no "official" way to add items to the navigation menu [...]
Sure there is, plugins can implement the extend_navigation() callback as documented here
Although as dashboard isn't a Moodle plugin point, the original poster is probably dealing with a core code hack.
Sorry, I read that as the flat-navigation. It isn't.
It's perfectly possible to add top level nodes (and call them what you like). I've done it, so it can't be that hard.
I think it being called 'Dashboard' is a distraction. I don't think we're talking about the same dashboard
https://my-ip/moodle/my/indexsys.php is givng http 500 error presistently
You need to check your web server's error log to see what's causing the Error 500. Turn up your Debugging if you haven't done already.
debugging did not help
However, you know what, i solved this problem by running:
chcon -Rv -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t moodledata
chcon -Rv -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t /var/www/html/moodle
SO this dashboard link and a few others work better now
ive done the grep of files, cant seem to find any lead
I think you are using a custom dasboard.
Some ways you can solve it.
You can find the link on config.php or theme level also (if you are using customised dashboard).
You can use Moodle tool on url (dir/admin/tool/replace) to replace the older url to new url on your system.
Thanks,
i cant seem to run the /admin/tool/replace/index.php either, there are too many problems here
