I'm glad you're enjoying the plugin. I tried to replicate your error here in my environment but I couldn't, can you give me more details and what error message is displayed.
A pergunta é: não é possível trocar o avatar pelo Painel?
The plugin considers a session a topic or a week... it depends on the course format you are using!
Thanks for the sugestion! If you want to customize this, you can modify the plugin's translation file in the language you are using!
No aguardo de um retorno, agradeço muito a atenção e retorno.
Instalei o plugin na nossa instância Moodle 4.1, mas parece que mesmo após configurá-lo em Configurações do Plugin, ele não é mostrado como uma "atividade" ao estruturar o curso com os demais conteúdos. É alguma falha?
