I recently installed the certificate module. Everything seemed to be working fine until I choose the activity, "Certificate" and I received a blank page. No options to do any configuration.
I followed the online instructions exactly, but obviously I'm missing something critical.
I've also noticed under the plugin folder for Certificates, when I upload an image, exit, and then come back to the screen - the image is missing. It is as if I didn't do anything.
Any ideas?
Hello Scott
Please check that the certificate module you installed is compatible with your Moodle version. secondly turn the debugging on from settings >site administration > development > debugging . Set the debugging to "Developer" and display dubug message to be enable. Then add a certificate module and check the error and post it here.
Sakshi,
Thank you for getting back to me.
The site that I downloaded the certificate from said that it worked with Moodle 2.0. The name of the compressed folder was "mod_certificate_moodle24_2013021200.zip". I got the file from https://moodle.org/plugins/pluginversion.php?id=2166.
The Notification page says my Moodle version is: Moodle 2.0 (Build: 20101125).
I turned on developer debugging, like you suggested and returned to the certificate link. I received the following error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::get_cms() in
/home/learn0/public_html/lms/mod/certificate/lib.php on line 879
It sounds like I'm missing file, right?
Scott
I think I got it to work!!
I did a search using the line of code that wasn't working and I found this:
Regarding your issue, it seems the file lib/modinfolib.php was introduced later in the 2.0 branch but not in 2.0.1. To fix your issue simply change the line "$mods = $modinfo->get_cms();" to "$mods = $modinfo->cms;" in mod/certificate/lib.php.
After doing that - everything seemed to work - at least so far.
Thank you Sakshi!!
Hi Scott,
You are using a very outdated Moodle version with known security issues. I highly suggest upgrading your Moodle install to a supported version.

Mark,
Can you suggest a vendor to me to assist me in upgrading my system? I need someone who knows both Moodle and the Lunarpages support platform.
I've tried using Lunarpage's tools to do the migration myself and the process crashed. I tried again after the tools were upgraded with the same result. Both times I had to restore the system from backup, which caused students to lose progress on quizzes.
Thanks,
Scott
