here is a new block.
When you have many courses in your moodle server, you are very annoyed to create the course categories to fit the needs of the whole variety of moodle users.
With this block, each user can choose the view that best fits his needs.
Each course creator or administrator can create a view.
Enjoy it.
Best regards.
if you want to change the look of the block "view", here are the Flash sources.
I tried to install, but I got an error creating database tables
I am using 1.53+ moodle.
SELECT u.id, u.username, u.firstname, u.lastname, u.email, u.city, u.country, u.picture, u.lang, u.timezone, u.emailstop, u.maildisplay, s.timeaccess AS lastaccess FROM mdl_user u LEFT JOIN mdl_user_students s ON s.userid = u.id WHERE s.course = AND u.deleted = 0;
.... So please tell me if it is to be used in 1.53+

Hi Frank,
Ive installed the block view in a clean Moodle 1.5.2+ server.
Ive extracted the block_view.zip archive in the root moodle directory.
Check if these files are created in your root moodle directory:
blocks/view/*
blocks/view/db/*
lang/en/block_view.php
lang/fr/block_view.php
Then login as admin, and go to the admin page:
http://moodle_server/admin/
And then the installation succeeded.
However, I didnt find you SQL request in the block code. The problem cause may be elsewhere
Best regards.

With the block view, each course creator can easily create a view framework.
Here is an example.

The course creator can also easily define the view content from existing courses.
He can reorder the courses list just by drag and drop.

The best place for the view block is on your moodle server home page.
Cheers.
