Face-to-face activities are used to keep track of in-person (e.g. classroom) trainings which require advance booking.
Each activity is offered in one or more identical sessions. These sessions can be given over multiple days.
Reminder messages are sent to users and their managers a few days before the session is scheduled to start. Confirmation messages are sent when users sign-up for a session or cancel.
This module may be of interest to administrators looking for a way to provide event management support for blended learning environments.

"There was a problem sending the confirmation message to your email account. Debug info:

Does maybe someone know why this happens or maybe a possible solution?
Another question, is it possible that a student can signup for more than one event? Cause the moment I signup for one the other one becomes unavailable.
This issue is a bit annoying, can you help me with this?
We have been using this plugin for a while now. Recently, it started deleting spaces between words in the confirmation emails sent out. Any idea of why it would do this?
it's a really great plugin - I used it in my Moodle 3.9 and it was brilliant. From my perspective - "must have".
Recently a decision was made to upgrade our environment and also Moodle has been updated to version 4.0 (I'm testing it now to see if we can move to version 4.0 or if we need to stay on version 3.9).
Can I count on any information or tips regarding the face2face plugin for this particular version of Moodle? I know that there is a branch for 4.0_stable on github but I assume that the plugin has not been officially released for some reason (and I am asking because I have a comment about the need to take care of this plugin on the "Plugins Check" page). Thanks again for your huge effort
It looks that the plugin is still working (creating sessions with dates or waiting lists, both in the past, or in the future, marking students as no show or attended etc.). It has some limitations but these are the same like in other moodle versions and are more features and not bugs (at least I did not find anything new).
Thanks for this plugin, it helps us a lot!
We are slowly adding automatic deployment of updated plugins to the plugins db but haven't done it for this plugin yet and we don't have a specific timeframe we can provide at this stage.
