    I believe this is due to this bug which I need to fix: https://github.com/FMCorz/moodle-block_xp/issues/36

    Hi Kris,

    this is the exact same issue mentioned above twice. It has been reported at https://github.com/FMCorz/moodle-block_xp/issues/36

    Please be patient.

    Thanks,

    Hi. First, thanks for making this, it looks like it'll solve a problem for me. I wanted to ask about the Activity or Resource section of creating your own rules. Right now it just has the option for site news and I was wondering if I could target specific quizzes but I just can't figure out how to get them to appear. My site is currently configured to use the block sitewide and no on a specific course, if that helps.

    Hi Garrett,

    As you've enabled the block for the whole site, only the activities on the front page will be displayed in that list. At the time this was the intended behaviour as if you have 100 courses the "Activity or Resource" sections becomes unusable. If you feel strongly about this, please raise an issue at https://github.com/FMCorz/moodle-block_xp/issues

    Thanks!

    Hello Fréderic, this plugin is really what I need, the only problem is that when I add a block in a course I can't access the links "Information - View the ladder" and "Report - Settings". In my moodle when I click in these links it appears "page not found". Could you help me, please? thanks a lot.

    Hi Carla, I submitted an update to the plugin last weekend, can you make sure you are using that version? There used to be a similar bug on the ladder page. If not, I'm not sure what the problem could be.

    Is there any way to add alt text to the customized images for each level so that the level 1 image has an alt="Level 1"?

    Hi Kristin,

    this looks like a bug to me, may I ask you to raise it at https://github.com/FMCorz/moodle-block_xp/issues

    Hi! Thanks a lot for this extension! I have a problem, the same as Carla Oliveira. After install v2.1.2. on moodle 3.0.3 when I try to access to "Information - View the ladder" and "Report - Settings" I go to a 500 Internal Server Error. Can you tell me, please, if this is a bug? Thank you very much.
