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.
PII Annotations are very out of date, this commit adds most that were
missing in edx-platform, and some additional annotations to the
safelist. It is not comprehensive, several other upstream Open edX
packages also need to be updated. It also does not include removing
annotations that have been moved upstream, or been removed entirely.
Those are separate follow-on tasks.
- Add announcements view using JSX to the dashboard sidebar
- Create a new maintenance interface to edit and manage announcements
- Adds an override to main.html template to include new skip links
- Add plugins required for announcements to TinyMCE
This is motivated by a desire to have system wide messages for students
that show on the dashboard. Enabled with FEATURES['ENABLE_ANNOUNCEMENTS'].
Global staff are allowed to edit from the studio maintenance view.
