    Hello everybody,

    Thank you very much for this great plugin!


    Do you know if it is possible that the form fields keep the formatting (e.g. list, bold in some word) when they are rendered in the PDF? Currently, the content is always displayed on the same line without formatting.

    Running Moodle 4.3, attempted install to get this:

    Downloading mod_customcert ... OK
    Validating mod_customcert ... Error
    [Error] Extracted file not found [{"file":"customcert\/element\/text\/lang\/en\/"}]
    Installation aborted due to validation failure

    Any thoughts?

    Awesome Plugin - thanks for the effort.
    Would be great to be able to export templates and also to save existing certificates as templates.

    @Gehan, yes, it does work well in Arabic, but not all fonts would work, basically try "Free Serif" & "Free Serif Bold", both work with Arabic as well as English.

    I'm trying to use the code below, but it's printing the variables as plain text.

    O Centro Paula Souza, em parceria com {coursefield:parceiro}, certifica que {fullname}, CPF nº {profile_field_user_numero_identificacao}, concluiu, com aproveitamento satisfatório, o curso {course}, na plataforma {coursefield:plataforma_curso}, durante o período de {startdate} à {enddate}, com carga horária total de {coursefield:carga_horaria} horas.

    Is it still possible to create certificates with variables in the middle of the text?

    I've been using this plugin for years and use the unique certificate code option.
    Is there a way of changing the code to make it longer please?
    Thanks

    We are using the custom plugin and has worked fine when we add a restuction to be sent on a set date. We have just changed our courses to use the restriction number of days from start date of course. Unfortunatley the courses that started today have sent out the certificates to all attendees despite the restriction of 28 days from course start date. Is there an issue or is it not compatable with this restriction?

    Hello, the students have to download the certificate and then the admin o teacher can download all issued certificates. I was wondering if there is a function that allows the admin or the teacher to download all the certificates without the students have to click in the download button

    I have already use the plugin for so long but there's something I just noticed, how does the custom cert generate the participants certificate? does when the restrict access has been met then the certificate will be created? or the participant needs to view it first thus it will be created? anyway, thanks for this great plugin!

    I am using this custom plug in. Is there any way to modify/edit the award date of a certificate?

    Hello,

    We have a scenario where participants receive certificates in courses. Each participant has been assigned a mentor via the parent role in Moodle. This mentor should be able to see which certificates their mentees have already earned. However, access to the certificates is not possible because the certificate viewing permissions do not apply to user-specific roles.

    Mentors must be activated as a global role, and users must be assigned there. However, this setup ignores the connection between mentors and mentees, meaning all users with the global Mentor role can see certificates for all participants, not just their own mentees.

    Is there a solution for this? Perhaps the certificate viewing permission in the profile could be linked to the mentor-mentee relationship?

    I hope I have explained the problem clearly and that a solution is possible.

    Best regards
