We are having two problems that seem like they might be related. The problems happen in a course with 1 user enrolled as a teacher and several users as students. When adding a Teacher name element to the certificate (or editing it), the dropdown list also includes Managers with permissions to the course inherited from the course category.
The second problem might be related. When Email teachers is enabled, Managers with permissions to the course inherited from the course category also receive an email.
Please advise.
We're using Moodle 3.1.9 (Build: 20171113) with Custom certificate plugin 3.1 release (Build: 2016052312). Do you have any idea if updating the plugin version to 3.1.20 (2016052320) will fix the problem?
Can you prevent PDF files modification in My Certificates page? When any data is modified in certificate activity the generated certificates also is modified. Moodle 3.1
Hi Tim - no, updating the plugin won’t resolve the issue. Can you create an issue in https://github.com/markn86/moodle-mod_customcert/issues? Thanks.
Hi Glauco - Currently you can not. The PDF is dynamically generated each time. Please see https://github.com/markn86/moodle-mod_customcert/issues/38.

1. How/when is a certificate "issued"? Is it issued when a user accesses/clicks the activity? And/Or when they have completed/achieved a specified goal/task... and if so, is this just set up using the "restrict access" settings within the plugin?
2. Who can a certificate be issued to? EG How do I set it so that only users with a "student" role in a course can be issued a certificate
We're seeing the same problems as mentioned by https://moodle.org/user/view.php?id=2351269&course=1 in december 2017. I believe a pull request was created https://github.com/markn86/moodle-mod_customcert/pull/174/commits/d533ad92277bfd0748cefbcbc664bbc210c28246
Will you be integrating that in the next release?
Thanks,
Willem
Not sure if this has been asked, but I am having trouble getting the background image to show. Its there when repositioning elements, but then disappears in PDF mode.
Any advice?
Thanks
