  have a question I hope you can help me, at the option of the option you date "January 2000" would come out in the months uppercase "JANUARY 2002" when issuing the certificate, I edited the language and have not had the results I need.
  
  Regards and thanks

  Hi Mark,
  All your stable branches at https://github.com/markn86/moodle-mod_certificate seem to have disappeared. I can only see master now.
  Thanks,
  Tony

  @Bridgette Anderson Were you able to resolve this issue with IE and certificate? We are having the exact same issue and running out of idea as to how to fix this..

  Is there a way to deny your students from seeing the certificate until a certain activity has been completed. We really need for our teachers to mark the activity as complete before the student sees the certificate. Is this possible?

  Hi Mark,
  I was translating the certificate module into mexican spanish and I found that the English strings available for translation in AMOS (http://lang.moodle.org) are different from the English strings actually included in the most recent version of the certificate module in moodle.org plugins database (here).
  
  Also, the certificate module zip file itself contains three files for translated language strings besides English. I think that is no longer the recommended method to process translations, as now all translations of contributed plugins should be made via AMOS. I just submitted via AMOS the gl language strings to the gl language pack maintainers; and because the spanish and Brazilian portuguese language strings are already in AMOS, I think these translations can now be safely removed from the certificate module that you maintain.
  
  As for the English strings present in the module but missing in AMOS, some easily spotted strings would be "Required minutes in course" and its associated help text "Enter here the minimum amount of time, in minutes, that a student must be logged into the course before they will be able to receive the certificate.". Also "Upload image" and the related help "This button will take you to a new screen where you will be able to upload images."

  Hi, I have installed this latest version on clean install of noodle 2.3 but get the following message when setting up a certificate:
  Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: moodle_database::insert_record_raw() no fields found. Is there a fix for this?

  Hello,
  I tried upgrading moodle to 2.4 but the certificate plugin seems to stop working for ancient certificates. I was just trying it out even if it's not yet supported.
  I got the following error: Debug info: Unknown column 'c.deleted' in 'where clause'
  SELECT MAX(c.timecompleted) as timecompleted
  FROM mdl_course_completions c
  WHERE c.userid = ?
  AND c.course = ?
  AND c.deleted IS NULL
  [array (
  0 => '4',
  1 => '13',
  )]
  Error code: dmlreadexception

  I have an old certification module which is working great on moodle 2.4
  I tried to install the new version and got some error about a function that does not exist.
  John - I created the directory manually, with 777 permissions - it solved the issue.

  Hello, is it possible to have a new certificate generated each time "Get your certificate" is pressed. I have users who need to complete a course every year for competency. This is also reported on through the database so I need the record stored in 'certificate_issues'. Possible or shall I hack this functionality?
