Based on the example, I assume you mean .php files with valid php code and that do appropriate assignments to $CFG. Is it possible to break moodle? Yes. All moodle configuration is done in PHP code. If invalid, you break moodle. Does this run at each startup or only once? How does it interact with changes done through the admin interface? These are read on every HTTP request, and override changes done via admin interface. IOWs you can use it to lockdown values. m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
Re: [Server-devel] OLPC Moodle use
Is there an existing Wiki page where we can all add our contributions? This is a very good idea. I would suggest also some suggestions or approaches to training teachers to use it, i.e. a training curriculum introducing the features in a manageable way. For many of the teachers we deal with, the OLPC is their first experience with any type of computing.

That would remove a translation layer. There are, of course wikis available at http://wiki.laptop.org and http://wiki.sugarlabs.org where one could start a new page. --Fred *From:* server-devel-boun...@lists.laptop.org [mailto: server-devel-boun...@lists.laptop.org] *On Behalf Of *Luuk Terbeek *Sent:* Saturday, 17 April 2010 6:40 a.m. *To:* server-devel@lists.laptop.org *Subject:* [Server-devel] OLPC Moodle use Dear members of the server-devel@lists.laptop.org, Currently I'm preparing a presentation for the Dutch Moodle Moot.
