Hi Henning, yes please post your codes so that we can all learn from each other here. Thanks a bunch!

By the way, a quick side question. Is there a quick and easy way to export all the course categories (and empty course shells) from one Moodle server to another? We spent a lot of time creating a lot of course categories on our testing server and most of the course shells right now under each course category are still empty. We would like to figure out a way to quickly migrate all the course categories from one server to another one. I'm thinking that we probably need to deal with the mdl_course_category and some other DB tables. Please let me know if anyone know of a quick and easy approach to get this task done. Thanks!

Dear all, 

I have been using Tim's Ad-hoc database queries (aka "Custom SQL queries report" block) and have been reading some of the "ad-hoc contributed reports" but I'm still trying to come up with this SQL query correctly.

What I'm trying to do is to to list out:

• Course Full Name
• Instructor Name (Firstname, Lastname)
• # of students in this course
• # of days the instructor(s) in this course lgged in to Moodle (or at least # of times the instructor logged in to Moodle between MM-DD-YYYY to MM-DD-YYYY
• # of Forum posts for each instrutor in each course
• # of Forum posts for each student in each course

Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks a bunch!

Hi all, thanks for reading this newbie Moodle developer question.

Remember the typical Moodle User Profile area has a Email display pull-down menu? There are three options:

• Hide my email address from everyone
• Allow everyone to see my email address
• Allow only other course members to see my email address

We are thinking about "extending" this feature to NOT just include "Email display", but to include the whole User Profile page - or to at least allow users to have more control (opt-in/out) over what kind of info on the user profile page can be shared with others. Is this possible with the latest Moodle 2.x?? Currently we are running 1.9.15, is there a easy hack for 1.9.x about such feature, or is there any other work-around or solution that can achieve this? Thanks a bunch!

Hi there, thanks for reading this question. In Moodle 1.9.x, is there a easy way to change the font (or font color) with each individual heading (e.g. General, Picture of, Interests, Optional)? I tried to login as admin and go into the Site Administration -> Language -> Language editing -> Edit words or phrases ->  en_utf8_local/moodle.php => and change the string of "General" to be <FONT COLOR="#0000FF">General</FONT> but it won't work this way (which is expected, if we can inject html codes this way it won't be good then). What's the easiest way to change font/font colors for these headings? Thanks a lot!

Hi all, thanks for reading this thread.

Just wondering whether in Moodle 1.9.x and 2.1.x, is it possible to allow each individual user to opt-in/opt-out whether they want to allow other classmates (enrolled in the same course) to be able to view their user profile??Is this possible in a stock Moodle, and if not, is there a 3rd party patch or work-around somewhere that we can get this implemented?? Thanks a bunch!

I know that it is possible for the "email display" (in the edit profile page), but this only limited to email address. I'm thinking about the whole user profile page.
