Method view_has_token uses uninitialized variable

[Robert Boloc]

This method is found in htdocs/lib/mahara.php staring on line 2089.

The bug is that it uses a variable ($visible) that does not exist in the function context.

I attach a patch with the fix.

The $anonfeedback variable has not been used since v1.2 (Bug 1281121)

The only place that calls the get_view_from_token() does nothing with
the output. It is left over code from version 1.2 where the token was
checked to see if an anonymous user could add feedback to a view or
artefact.

The code changed completely in v1.3 where things like tutors came into
play so I've removed the legacy old code from view/artefact.php

Hi Robert Boloc,

I'm putting together the release notes for Mahara 1.9.0. In the release announcement, we like to give credit to which institutions the developers work for. Do you have an institutional affiliation (i.e. employer or university) that you want this patch credited to? Or are you fine with crediting it to "Unaffiliated"?

(For an example, here's the 1.8.0 release announcement, with the list of developers' employers: https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=5833#post24914 )

Cheers,
Aaron

Hi Aaron,

I work for the Rovira i Virgili University so this can be used as my
affiliation.

Thank you.

Regards,
Robert
