Enrolment Timer
Enrolment Timer Block
This block provides the functionality to display the remaining time a user has in their enrolment period - including a live JavaScript countdown timer. There are many settings to choose from to customise the way this is displayed to the user; in text, with numbers, customisable units and so on.
Emailing functionality is also included, You can enable a setting for students to be notified by email when their enrolment is expiring in a set amount of days (Default 10). Email notifications can also be enabled to congratulate a student on passing the course. This email is sent after the student receives a required grade in the course_total grade.
The plugin has been developed with limited styling to enable the best possible base for theme overrides to align the design with your existing Moodle theme.

I think that this plugin is great, but it would be even better for Moodle users of languages other than English if some English language strings, which are currently hard-wired, were declared as variables, so that AMOS translators (as myself) could make a better translation to other languages.
The currently hard-wired English strings are:
The choices for viewoptions: 'years, month, weeks, days, minutes seconds'.
The default text option for enrolmentemailsubject: 'Enrolment Expiring'
The default text for completionemailsubject: 'Course Completed'
Thanks in advance for your help.
Please find the latest release that incorporates your reqested changes. Thanks for pointing them out to me!
Cheers
Thanks for upgrading so fast this plugin. Now it will be even more friendly for Moodle users from many languages. I have updated this plugin translation for mexican spanish in AMOS.
Cheers
thanks for this block. I have updated to the latest version and now I have this message at the top of the page:
array(7) { ["years"]=> int(31536000) ["months"]=> int(2592000) ["weeks"]=> int(604800) ["days"]=> int(86400) ["hours"]=> int(3600) ["minutes"]=> int(60) ["seconds"]=> int(1) }
The block is still showing the remaining time. I am working with Moodle 2.6.1+ (Build: 20140117).
Thanks for your work.

Thanks for finding that bug. I have found a dump or a variable I had forgotten to remove.
If you re-download todays version of the block as below
- Moodle 2.6.2+ (Build: 20140807) (2014080700)
and install it in your Moodle instance, you should no longer see the output.
Cheers

this was the fastest answer I ever get
And yes, it is working now. Thanks for all.

I can't seem to get the email notifications from this block to work. Has anyone else had this problem or can suggest a possible fix?
are there any plans to add Moodle 2.8 support to this plugin? Or is it fully compatible and just the compatibility info has not been upgraded yet?
Can you please check your PHP error logs and let me know if there are any errors there. Also please advise your moodle version
Hi Marek,
I have now updated and tested the plugin in Moodle 2.8. Enjoy!
Thank you for the latest version. I tested it in my environment but am getting an error when the student tries to access the course after the admin adds the block to the course page. My shared hosting environment is:
Moodle 2.8.1 (Build: 20141113)
MySQL 5.5.41.37.0
PHP 5.4.34
Here is the debug info. Please advice.
Error reading from database
