Feature 120
From ClaroDevel
New features in Claroline 1.2.0 (May 2002)
- Claroline can be installed in a server sub-directory.
- UCL local settings have been removed (Faculties, IPM link, Course Program...).
- Languages. Claroline is now in 7 languages: English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Spanish. New language adding has been automated. You just need to add new language directory into claroline/lang dir. It is then available at Course creation as long as 'Modify Course Info' tool.
- Web install. Open browser and go to (...)claroline/install to install new package. WATCH OUT! The web install does not manage claroline1.1.1 upgrade to 1.2.0 yet.
- Text editing. In almost all tools, URLs and emails are converted into links and new lines into HTML new lines (tags
). - Agenda. New layout, clearer view (Month separation and mention of current day). Language date formatting automated.
- Announcements. Can be moved up and down the list through blue arrow.
- Documents. '.php' files uploads are renamed '.phps ' (increase security). Renaming a directory doesn't remove its content comments anymore. Directories size calculation works with PHP 4.1+ (no problem with previous versions).
- Stats. Install bug fixed (no manual stats settings editing required). Users registered only once per session per course.
- Administration. Basic administration tool at claroline/admin/ protected by '.htaccess'. (protection only functional if Apache server). Contains phpSysInfo (only functional in Linux servers) and phpMyAdmin 2.2.6.
- Todo. Improved from Admin point of view. You can clasify todos, attribute them to a developper, check state of progress and inform users that their todo is taken into account, at what stage and by who.
