Relative dates will be experimental in Moodle 3.8. Until then we can restrict module and section access based on a relative date.
This availability condition makes it easy to show modules or sections only x days/weeks/months - after course start date - before course end date - after user enrolment date.
Check the global documentation about availability conditions : https://docs.moodle.org/en/Conditional_activities_settings
Installation:
- Unpack the zip file into the availability/condition/ directory. A new directory will be created called relativedate.
- Go to Site administration > Notifications to complete the plugin installation.

just wondering: Does the current version work in 3.9?
Olaf
just installed - it seems to work. Thank you - this plugin really makes it easy to reuse "old" courses.
I want to report a bug: access restrictions are being updated dynamically according to local time, no matter how much in the configuration of the restriction we have selected "based on the user's enrollment in the course".
please use the bug tracker to report a bug. Do not forget to add your Moodle and plugin version .

Install the latest version of the 3.8+ plugin (2020110200) in Moodle 3.9.2+, it does not take the relative dates from when the student enrolled in the course, but since the plugin was updated or by the server date.
Similar to the bug that Joao Pedro mentioned earlier.
Can you help me with this please.
However after the update (the last two), a serious error started to occur.
Every time the student enters moodle, the relative date is updated based on the time he last accessed moodle.
Soon the student is never able to access the content with relative date.
We structured our entire grid with this plugin, and now we have this problem after updating the plugin.
I had a similar problem in the version that was solved in version 3.8+ (2020111000).
Do you have that version?
Excellent plugin, congratulations !! How can I do to increase the number of days to more than 50, as this is the limit that can be selected in the plugin for days, weeks or months
You can change the form.js source file and rebuild the YUI modules. Or you can suggest a new number (100 - 365 - ?) in the bug tracker and wait until it is implemented for you. I opted for choices between 1 and 51 to cover 51 weeks and to make the dropdown not too long. Any suggestion is welcome.
for (i = 1; i <52; i ++) {
html + = '' + i + ''; "??? Thank you, as I have urgency in this
The functionality you used was reported as a bug in one of our projects, so the plugin was updated to take the most recent enrollment as a starting point. Luckily this project is Open Source, so you can create a fork and modify line 222 of the classes/condition.php file to "restore" this bug.
