  Sorry, don't have an account on GitLab to report the issue. The following error occurs after I added Featured Courses to my dashboard and then try to view it as a student using Switch To...
  
  The block featuredcourses does not define the standard capability block/featuredcourses:myaddinstance

  I am using the latest version of Featured Courses and Moodle 3.4.2+ downloaded and installed earlier today.

  One more thing. Block editing was turned on when the error occurred. The error doesn't appear with block editing turned off.

  Instaled last version on Moodle 3.4.2+ and error:
  "Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: Cannot require a CSS file after has been printed."

  Daniel: Thank you very much. That took care of it.
  
  Tony: I haven't been able to reproduce the error you described on our Moodle 3.4.2+ with the latest plugin release. Comparing Daniel's code changes, there is nothing in the latest release that might cause the coding error you described. In fact, looking through the code, I didn't see anything that is requiring a CSS file at all. Can you provide Daniel with steps on how to reproduce the issue?

  Hi Daniel,
  Does it work on Moodle 3.5? It would be great if people could select courses to display either in front page or in dashboard or both.

  Hi Daniel,
  
  1) I can't seem to sort the order of the featured courses. I can change the numbers for the sort order but there doesn't seem to be any way to apply the settings. The only button on the page is not enabled unless you are adding a new course to featured.
  
  2) I created an account on GitLab however your project seems to be missing (or hidden) from your account. I get a 404 error when I try to access the project files and the bug tracker.
  
  3) If I choose to display the sessions on the site calendar, they just don't appear. This wasn't the case with a previous version and I can still change the dates on the old sessions to make them show up in the calendar again. Just can't add new ones.
  
  4) Would you happen to have some CSS handy to make sessions appear as seen in the screenshot for the Featured Courses plugin?

  Sorry, ignore #3 above. That one is for a different plugin.

  Hello, Michael
  
  I fixed the visibility of the project on gitlab. Could you please try again and maybe submit a pull request to fix #1 ?
  
  Unfortunately, I don't have the CSS, it was from a client's website I can't remember de address. But the new Moodle Dashboard has something that looks like that with the images of the courses in 3.5 version. You could take a look there =)
  
  Best regards!

  Hello, Phuong
  
  it may work on 3.5, I didn't test it yet. Could you please test and report for us if it is working?
  
  It would really be a nice feature if one could choose in which pages each course appear in. When I find some time to work on the plugin, I will consider it. In the mean time, consider sending a pull request =)
  
  Best regards!

  Hello!
  
  I installed the plugin (I'm using Moodle 3.5) and, after adding an instance of the block, I can't seem to find the option to include it on the frontpage (via admin/settings.php?section=frontpagesettings). There isn't any link to configure the block in admin/blocks as well. Where should I configure the block?

  You must "Turn editing on" and go to your frontpage or the dashboard or a course. It will depend on your theme where you'll be able to add block on the frontpage.
