Preventing New Enrolments in Paypal Pro (Improvement)

The PayPal Pro enrollment method, which is a method used when selling courses, has a new setting called "Allow new enrolments". While this setting is generally set to "Yes", it can be set to "No" if you want to allow existing enrollments to continue to work while blocking new enrollments. In other words, when disabled, users who already enrolled in the course using PayPal Pro will continue to have access to the course, but no one else will be able to enrol in the course using this method. This setting is useful when an organization wants to deprecate an enrolment method in favour of a new one without blocking access to learners who already paid for the course.

Grade Stored in the Learning Record for a Checklist Activity is Off by One (Bug Fix)

When a Checklist activity is completed, the grade stored in the learning record is off by one. For example, if a checklist has 10 items and the user tickets all 10 boxes, their grade would be 9 out of 10 instead of 10 out of 10. The gradebook however would correctly identify the grade as being 10 out of 10. As part of this software fix, the learning environment now sets the correct grade in the learning record.
