Hi Bob and Mercè!

I think currently only badge creator and users earning a badge can receive notifications when a badge is issued. There is an issue in the tracker (https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-46440) for adding this feature. Voting, commenting or coming up with a patch will increase the chance of this improvement coming about sooner.

@Mercè, you'll find the "Notify badge creator" setting in the "Message" tab from every badge. You'll need to edit and set to the value working better for you (default one is "Never").

Cheers!

Hey gang,

We were also a bit disappointed in the badge issuer setting after we found it differentiates between the badge creator (individual, specific user who has created the badge), and the issuer (manually entered contact details that are not used to trigger any notifications).  I created an enhancement request - https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-68485 - to create course specific notifications as a workaround (which is really what we were trying to achieve with the badge issuing).  

Cheers,

Ant
