Return values
bool|arraySuccess or an array of errors

◆ add_action_buttons()

moodleform::add_action_buttons (   $cancel = true,
  $submitlabel = null 
)
inherited

Use this method to a cancel and submit button to the end of your form.

Pass a param of false if you don't want a cancel button in your form. If you have a cancel button make sure you check for it being pressed using is_cancelled() and redirecting if it is true before trying to get data with get_data().

Parameters
bool$cancelwhether to show cancel button, default true
string$submitlabellabel for submit button, defaults to get_string('savechanges')

Reimplemented in tool_uploadcourse_step2_form.

◆ add_checkbox_controller()

moodleform::add_checkbox_controller (   $groupid,

int$originalValueThe original general state of the checkboxes before the user first clicks this element

◆ after_definition()

moodleform::after_definition ( )
protectedinherited

After definition hook.

This is useful for intermediate classes to inject logic after the definition was provided without requiring developers to call the parent self::definition() as it's not obvious by design. The 'intermediate' class is 'MyClass extends IntermediateClass extends moodleform'.

Classes overriding this method should always call the parent. We may not add anything specifically in this instance of the method, but intermediate classes are likely to do so, and so it is a good practice to always call the parent.

Return values
void

Reimplemented in core\form\persistent.

◆ validate_defined_fields()

moodleform::validate_defined_fields (   $validateonnosubmit = false)

This is provided as a separate function for those special cases where you want the form validated before definition_after_data is called for example, to selectively add new elements depending on a no_submit_button press, but only when the form is valid when the no_submit_button is pressed,

Parameters
bool$validateonnosubmitoptional, defaults to false. The default behaviour is NOT to validate the form when a no submit button has been pressed. pass true here to override this behaviour
Return values
booltrue if form data valid

array$filesarray of uploaded files "element_name"=>tmp_file_path
Return values
arrayof "element_name"=>"error_description" if there are errors, or an empty array if everything is OK (true allowed for backwards compatibility too).
