Moodle plugins directory: Course Menu block

Alex, I've just sent an email in case you are not monitoring the forum here.
I wonder it is possible to update the branch names in GIT?

Just a copy of the error results:

This is the error report:

This looks like something simple for someone who is in the know.

OK, I've heard back from Alex. They are a bit busy at the moment, but he has sent me a version of course menu that works with Moodle 3.0. If you want it, PM me.

-Derek

Tis here: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=328361#p1320853
Use at your own risk of course, we have it on a live server, a few small bugs with overflow of text, Alex has the details.

-Derek

I have clarified the problem of menu items overflow in GIT. It does just a little bit different in Chrome/Firefox and IE
https://github.com/netsapiensis/moodle-block_course_menu/issues/20

Alex has said he will work on this to fix.
Richard has suggested something here: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=328361#p1320861

As usual, if you have input, you know what to do. I am also trying to persuade the Net Sapiensis guys to update their zip file which they sent me on GIT. I actually have no idea if this is a big job or not.

It is interesting that I did a certain amount of bug checking, but never in IE and certainly not on a small screen.
Suddenly students are back from holiday, and they are more creative in what they do, and they found the problems with CM.

From Alex: https://github.com/netsapiensis/moodle-block_course_menu/tree/MOODLE_30_STABLE
A new version.

Hi guys.

This is and very usefull block to our institution. But i had some issue, our courses use a grid format (nor topic or week), so when a user clics a section doesn't show the window pop up of the grid (or section represented in a grid item) option. How can i fix this?

Hi,

The Course Menu (CM) block is mad and tested for the Week and Topic course formats since they are part of Moodle Core. To make CM work with another course format extensive development and we currently don't have it on our road map .

Hi Alex, great work.
But I get those error messages.
String [myprofile,core] is deprecated. Either you should no longer be using that string, or the string has been incorrectly deprecated, in which case you should report this as a bug. Please refer to https://docs.moodle.org/dev/String_deprecation

We are having problems with chapters.
Moodle 3.0.1
Latest version of plugin. I beleive.
Where we put the chapters is not where they stay.
If we move chapters,
Save
Go to student view
Return to teacher view
They have moved back.

-Derek

Possible hypothesis: is it a feature that CM stops you having only one section per chapter?

-Derek

The Course Menu block is showing icons to activities, but the names are missing - is that a bug? Is there any fix for that?

Hi, any reason the menu when in weekly format doesn't show the default section title with month/day - ie just shows "week 1", "week 2" etc?

Hi,
Is there any version for M3.1 ? Actually the last version of this block is not compatible at all with Moodle 3.1 :o(
Yui seems problematic with the tree view.

Bump for Moodle 3.1 support. Is this likely?
