Roadmap

Aardvark South Hunsley School Pro 1.0 - Released

This version of Aardvark has been developed from the Aardvark SVC Edit based on the original Aardvark Pro version 1.2 which is available from: http://moodle.org/mod/data/view.php?d=26&rid=3608.

To setup the menus, please read the comments in the aardvark_menu.php file and make the necessary adjustments before uploading to your server.

• Changed menu so that you can choose from from a list of sub-categories, a list of courses within a category or a static list of links for each drop-down menu
• Fixed issue with SSL login not working correctly
• Added ability to return to own role / login, if an administrator is logged in as another user into the profile block
• Added a regex into the header and footer to stop certain types of pages displaying the full header or footer

Pro 1.2 (Robocop) - Released

• Rebuild from ground up
• All CSS combined into one handy file
• Re-organised folder structure
• More modern styling/design

Pro 1.1 (Bearhug) - Released

• PIX Folder - Additional filetype icons added
• aardvark_layout.css - Forum controls added to restrict posted images to fit on to page ".forumpost {width: auto;overflow:none;}" and ".forumpost img {max-width: 100%;}"
• aardvark_layout.css - Removed "position" and "left" elements from ".cal_popup_bg ", ".surround" and ".header-profileblock" to fix calendar pop-ups.
• aardvark_layout.css - Changed .surround to #surround
• aardvark_color.css - Changed .surround to #surround
• header.html - Changed <div class="surround"> to <div id="surround">
• header.html - Correctly closed link in <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo $CFG->httpsthemewww .'/'. current_theme() ?>/aardvark_print.css" type="text/css" media="print" />
• aardvark_print.css - Added
• various css - Changed header-profile classes (.) to IDs (#)
• header.html - Changed header-profileblock class to ID
• aardvark_default.css - Removed #header-home and placed contents in #logo
• header.html - Made the header elements a little more PHP and removed redundant #header-home DIV. Now reads
  <?php print_container_start(true, '', 'header');
  echo '<div id="logo">';
  echo '<a href="'.$CFG->wwwroot.'" style="display: block; width: 247px; height: 96px;"> </a>';
  echo '</div>';
  echo '<div id="header-profileblock">';
  include('profileblock.php');
  echo '</div>';
  ?>
• header.html - Validated markup! Woop!!!
