  Hi, Dirk.
  
  What the block does is somewhat dependent on the completion system and how it recognises the complete/incomplete/pass/fail. I'm not sure that can be changed.
  
  Hi, David.
  
  Could you please put this into a ticket?

  Hi Michael,
  
  I installed the block yesterday for our lecturers and students - everyone loves it! We're busy with a catch-up week - students catch-up on submissions and lecturers catch-up on grading. (Our CAD draughting students do hundreds of assignments during the year and we re-open them automatically until 'pass').
  Students and lecturers have the block open on a separate screen while they're working on submissions and grading
  
  In our specific context there is some unexpected behaviour - both students and lecturers expect an assignment-block to revert to the 'submitted' colour when a 'failed' assignment has been re-submitted. As it is now, each failed assignment must be opened individually to check whether the work has been re-submitted.
  
  I don't mind 'fiddling' with the code if you can point me in the right direction. Perhaps something that first tests if a submission has been graded before fetching its completion status?
  
  Thanks again for this brilliant plugin!

  Hi, Sonya.
  
  The block relies on what is reported from the completion system and that is relying on the Assignment module. It may be that there is an issue there in how it reports completion on repeat attempts. Check what is shown in the completion report to see if that is consistent.
  
  Hi, S. Moodle.
  
  The link in the block follows the visibility/access of the activity in the course. If students can't access the assignment from the course, they shouldn't be able to get to it through the block. If that is not consistent, it may be a bug.

  Hi Michael,
  I just installed your 3.1 version on 3.3 and it seems to be working great! Thank you for this plugin. I know it sounds cheesy, but its a dream come true, always wanted a progress bar in my LMS for motivation of students and the whole gamification aspect. Thanks again.

  One thing that I am noticing on 3.3, but may be a change from progress bar to the new completion bar, is that when hovering over a square on the bar it give the assignment name but no longer the due date. I found that due date popup to be useful for the students and myself. So, if its not a gliche, please consider bringing that back.

  Hi Michael, I am using Version 2.7+ (Build: 2017060800) with moodle 3.2.
  Seams that its not possible to get a correct link to a label-completion (set "manually") from the block, it work fine for all other completions. For a label its directed to the top of the page.
  Any idea how to solve this.
  Thank you Peter

  Hi Michael,
  I see from other's comments that this version works fine with Moodle 3.2 and 3.3 - but my hosting provider won't install it on a 3.2 site because it's not supported. Is there a supported version coming out any time soon? (I just kinda promised it to someone, having demo'd it on a local site - oops!)
  
  thanks

  This looks great so far. The only thing I am wondering about is if I reset the course and change the course start date, does the completion progress dates change accordingly? (Because the Progress Bar dates do not change). Also it would be awesome to have a spot, when you edit the Completion Progress, for each item like a check box or something where you could say, "Use item's Expected Date" instead of setting one in the Completion Progress setting as well. If you do that, it would also fixed the date shifted since each item's expected date does shift with a resetted course's start date being changed. Any change of this small improvement?

  Wow... you even got the 'Expected Date' to work?? I still haven't even figured that out. Where is it pulling the date from anyway? I can't even get a date to show.

  Oh I found it the 'Expected Date' in the 'Activity Completion' settings. I do wish i could set it to about 365 days after a students individual enrollment date.

  Hi, all.
  
  Apologies for the delay in providing new versions. I've fixed a couple of issues and tested in the latest version.
  
  I've shifted the minimum version to 2.8 to resolve the problem with assignments introduced in later versions of 2.7.
  
  There's more to do, and now I've got the latest version of Moodle running, I should be able to look at a few issues.
  
  Some responses to recent questions...
  Eddie: The new block relies on the Completion System and the dates set in that. It would be good if completion could rely on assignment due dates, but for now you need to add an expected date.
  Peter: That could be something that could possibly be improved on. If you could create an improvement issue, that will remind me to look at it.
  Lee: I'm not certain, but I think the dates in the completion settings may adjust relatively if you restore the course with a new start date. That's not something the Completion Progress block is responsible for any more.
  Marvin: I agree that a completion expected by date that is relative to student enrolment would be good. That was something that was discussed early on, but it looks like its something that hasn't eventuated.

  Thank you for the 3.3 upgrade, Michael! This really made my day. And thank you for considering my suggestion on adding more options for the 'Expected date' on the bar. Starting next month, I will be offering courses that do not have a said 'end date'. Rather, they will simply pause enrollments upto 1 year (or 365 days) from the student enrollment date.
