Activities: Simple Certificate
This is a new activity module, Simple Certificate, based on certificate module maintained by Mark Nelson, but simpler, no needs to change any code to add a new certificate format, and moodle's administrator don't need to upload image files.
The certificate text are full customizable, using special text marks that will be replaced by variables (like student name, course name, grade, ...), don't need to change any language file.

Kees.
Our Moodleprovider has tried to install the update. Each time Moodle seems to install a prior version.
Can it be that the versioninfo itself hasn't been updated during te installproces?

Sorry for my message above. The files were perfectly updated but our Moodle works in a servercache. A restart of the server tackles the problem (eh ... our problem). Sorry for the extra work.

I have a question.
When i click on the link: "view # issued certificates" the next screen has in the left upper corner in small letters a number (13086).
What does that mean?
Thanks a lot! Kees.
How can i delete an issued certificate?
Kees.
Only cron process can remove issued certificate by now. You can configure that in plugin configuration page (/admin/settings.php?section=modsettingsimplecertificate), on "Keep issued certificates for:" option.
I have a problem with Russian. I only see the characters??? place of words. What can you advise to fix it?
However I have been a problem with the QR code: I get an error when I access the link generated by the QR code:
error/Invalide certificate code
If the QR code is: f345c4e0-8182-11e2-afa8-4b7df1272463 it generates de folowing link:
http://[our_url_moodle_server]/mod/simplecertificate/verify.php?code=f345c4e0-8182-11e2-afa8-4b7df1272463
Can I disable the QR page in the certificate?
This is odd, because i have tested it, the code is the same that was printed below QR code picture? it's the same at mod/simplecertificate/report.php ? (column code).
In this version you can't disable it, may be in future version.
