Description

Perhaps this is a bug that has just creeped in.
http://download.moodle.org/stable18/moodle-latest-18.tgz
Date on file: Feb. 28, 12:45 PM

For both the "front page" and inside courses, both as admin and teacher, when the "turn editing on" button is clicked, everything disappears, except for the very top.

Then when "turn editing off" button is clicked, even that button disappears. (This only seems to happen on the front page, not within the courses.)

The only way to get back to seeing the pages is to log out and log back in.

Sorry, I inadvertently used clone issue however I have this very problem

Moodle 1.8 + (2007021503) upgraded from CVS after a 1.7.2+ install from 1.7.1+

I saw it was "Fixed" but have no idea how or where. cvs update -dP has not fixed it.

This is not actually a bug - but people should get some info before upgrading that non standard modules and blocks cause trouble after upgrading... Read http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=69176
Remove (after course backup) all non standard activities (modules and blocks) and check before upgrading that collation of your database and all tables are unicode (charset utf-8)

However http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-9696 linked to this problem should be fixed because it seems to happen in fresh install without any non standard activities. (Some?) Windows servers have problems with
require_once ('moodleform_mod.php'); in mod_form.php but
require_once ($CFG->dirroot.'/course/moodleform_mod.php'); works.
