Hi John, we really like your cards format and are excited to see how it develops over time. Have you ever considered adding a progress indicator similar to Format Tiles? The Tiles plugin displays a nifty percentage complete that many students could find useful, especially when there is a lot of content in a course each week. Thanks for your efforts to make Moodle beautiful.

It also lets you display that as a single line as in this image. https://app.screencast.com/2a00VRXrsehG6

We hadn't initially planned to add a completion marker, but that definitely looks like it would be useful to have.

I've put in an enhancement for it on the repository: https://github.com/Vidalia/moodle-format_cards/issues/4

Hi John, I noticed that the section navigation displays when the admin default is set to 'None', and only hides it when chosen at the course level. Just highlighting it in case it's a bug, I'm using 4.1.4 if that helps.

Hi! Do you plan to add the indent feature that Moodle core brought to the Topics and Weekly format? https://docs.moodle.org/402/en/Course_formats
"From Site administration > Plugins > Course formats > Topics format and > Weekly format, the admin to disable or enable the indenting of items on course pages. (Indenting is enabled by default in new sites from 4.2 onwards.) The admin can also reset any indentation previously set on Topics and Weekly format course pages."

Hi John, do you have any plans for a 4.3 update? We're considering moving to this format but want to see if you've got anything in the works.

Hi Mike, sorry for the delay. I've installed the plugin on a fresh version of Moodle 4.3 and everything is working as expected
