    Hello, please report bugs to the issue tracker at GitHub (https://github.com/center-for-learning-management/moodle-local_courseexpiry/issues). What is the error message when you enable debugging and which Moodle version are you using? We have the plugin installed on several Moodle 3.9 and Moodle 3.10 sites and did not experience such issues.

    Hi Robert, We have the plugin installed on out test server and the accompanying block as well, yet I have been unable to get anything to display. Where does one go to see the "Expired Courses" page? How are teachers notified? Does it send email or Moodle messages?

    Hi Paul, yes, the trainers receive an email, if a course is expired. Additionally, you can use the block_courseexpiry, that also shows a link in a block, if a user has expired courses.

    Hi Robert, Thanks for your reply. I have two teacher accounts in a test set-up and neither has received email. I have the course expiry block on the Dashboard page, but it is not visible to the teacher accounts, even though it is not hidden from view. The test courses had their end date days ago. We have Moodle 3.10.7, PHP 7.3.29 and MariaDB 10.5.12

    Hi Robert, If I need to extend the time before deletion, do I need to make any other changes except increasing the number of weeks in the settings.php file?

    Will this plugin be available for Moodle 4?
