&lt;br&gt;
Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: Function print_section() is removed. Please use course renderer function course_section_cm_list() instead.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>by vince lune. &amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;no-overflow&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;text_to_html&quot;&gt;Is it possible to set the daily format once a week?  I'd like to have the dates listed as &quot;section header&quot; such as class meets 9 Sept, Sept 16, Sept23, etc.. without all the other days in there. Is there a way to make this happen? Thanks.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>by Lisa Ann Robertson. &amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;no-overflow&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;text_to_html&quot;&gt;Is it possible to set the daily format to skip days? Basically, my class runs 3 days a week. I'd like to have the dates just for the 3 days each week that the class meets (eg. 9 Sept/11 Sept/13 Sept) without all the other days in there. Is there a way to make this happen? Thanks.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;br&gt;
I could push the changes to a new branch for 2.5 on GitHub, but I see there is this issue outstanding - &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/nrobbins/moodle_format_days/issues/3&quot; class=&quot;_blanktarget&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer&quot;&gt;https://github.com/nrobbins/moodle_format_days/issues/3&lt;/a&gt; - so would not be pushing to the latest code and should there be a 2.4 and 2.5 branch?&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Cheers,&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Gareth&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>by Gareth Barnard. &amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;no-overflow&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;text_to_html&quot;&gt;Dear Nathan,&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
With version 2012123000 (3.0.2) on Moodle 2.4.3+ (Build: 20130502) version 2012120303.11 if you create a course and immediately set the 'Daily' format as the format to use then the sections beyond 0 are not displayed.  The add a section icon is shown, but clicking on that does nothing - bar incrementing the number of sections when you go to the course settings.  What you have to do is change the format to 'Weeks' save the settings, get the course displayed and then change to 'Daily'.  Please fix.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Kind regards,&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Gareth &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Unfortunately, adding sections through those types of files is not possible in the current version. I am certain that it can be added, though I do not know how to do so myself. I am still learning the PHP language and the Moodle API.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
If this is a feature that you need, there are a number of &lt;a title=&quot;Auto-link&quot; href=&quot;https://moodle.com/partners&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer&quot;&gt;Moodle Partners&lt;/a&gt; that could add this feature for you.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Thanks,&lt;br&gt;
Nathan&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

We have 33 sessions in a semester. Can we upload the time-table as an .xl or .csv file to populate the sessions in this format, in stead of changing date and time for each day/session?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

The styling for the calendar view is done with CSS. Each section in the summary view is given a 13% width and floated left. This should (probably) work with other formats.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>by Nyree Williams. &amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;no-overflow&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;text_to_html&quot;&gt;Hello Nathan&lt;br&gt;
I like the calendar view - would it be possible to style other formats eg weeks/topics format to use the calendar  view?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
