Description

There are several places in Moodle where numbers are hard-coded that could be made configurable. For example, the maximum number of courses that can be displayed on the MyMoodle front page (21). This recently caused us some difficulty when a user needed over 40 courses to be displayed on their MyMoodle front page.

A temporary fix was to edit the moodle/my/index.php file and change the call to get_my_courses so that it allowed up to 60 courses to be displayed.
