The announcements editor was never ported to frontend-app-authoring, and
the announcements display was never ported to frontend-app-learner-dashboard.
This announcements feature is rarely used, undocumented, non-a11y-friendly, and
there were no volunteers to port it to the new frontends. It is the last
remaining part of the legacy Studio "Maintenance" dashboard. So, we are
removing it.
BREAKING CHANGE: This removes...
* Studio Maintenance dashboard legacy frontend
* Studio Edit Announcements legacy frontend
* The snippet of legacy learner dashboard which renders announcements
* openedx/features/announcements djangoapp
* The ENABLE_ANNOUNCEMENTS feature flag
Not removed:
* The announcements_announcement table from openedx/features/announcements .
The table is most likely very small, as it is only populated by administrators. Removing
it would be more labor for us and more risk of toil for operators than is worthwhile.
Closes: https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/issues/36263
DEPR: https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/issues/36429
This change removes the course_sock and related API data. The UI it
removes is on the Legacy Courseware pages which have also been replaced
and have their own [deprecation ticket](https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/issues/35803)
Before this can be merged, we will need to update the
frontend-app-learning MFE to no longer consume the
`can_show_upgrade_sock` attribute.
BREAKING CHANGE: CourseHomeMetadata, ProgressTab, OutlineTab and
VerifiedMode APIs will no longer have a `can_show_upgrade_sock`
attribute.
The Studio Maintenance app had two features:
* "Force Course Publish", which literally doesn't do anything. All it
does is tell you what version *would* be seen by users *if* the course
were to be published--no publishing actually occurs via this feature.
* "Announcements", which writes to the announcements_announcement
database table, but doesn't actually display anywhere.
Having these pages in the platform is actively misleading and creates a
maintenance burden for edx-platform developers, so we remove them.
Note that this commit does not include a migration for the announcements
Django app. So, announcements_announcement table will not be deleted.
Given the small expected size of any past-authored announcements, we are
not worried about leaving them in the database perpetually.
- use new dates banner template on course outline page
- remove old banner from main.html
- let dates tab use new dates banner template
- remove dates banner completely from the courseware problem view
on the web app
- use new banner on the courseware problem view on the mobile app
- update banner util to use get_course_blocks
* Fix all stylelint errors
For any errors that fixing would require changing the output of the css disable stylelint for that line instead of modifying.
* Update quality.py
Make stylelint quality check pass when there are no errors
* Delete empty selectors
