10 | === 2.3 === |

| 12 | * The new $course->coursedisplay option was introduced, users can now choose to display | |
| 13 | a section at a time if the course formats support it: | |
| 14 | - COURSE_DISPLAY_SINGLEPAGE indicates the teacher has chosen to display all sections on one page | |
| 15 | - COURSE_DISPLAY_MULTIPAGE indicates the teacher has chose to have seperate pages with each section. | |
| 16 | ||
| 17 | * The parameter for 'currently active section' was standardised in core: | |
| 18 | - The course format is passed the currently live section through the $displaysection varaible to format.php | |
| 19 | - A 'section' paramter is the standardised way to pass around the current section in a course | |
| 20 | - Navigation no longer looks for custom parameters defined in callback_format_request_key |
