The Progress Bar block had support (database hacks) for a number of modules added to it, including standard and contributed plugins. The Completion Progress block avoids this by relying on the completion system built into Moodle. I think there are some basic completion settings for all activities and some add specific completion settings. Give it a try and let us know how you go.

We use this block extensively and love it.
Some of our courses use the Multi-Language Content (v2) https://moodle.org/plugins/filter_multilang2. When you hover over the boxes, the names of the associated assessment shows the unfiltered text, e.g. {mlang en}Assessments{mlang}{mlang zh_tw}單位評估{mlang}{mlang zh_cn}单位评估{mlang}{mlang ms}Assessments{mlang}. I note on the filter page the author said that
"this plugin only has a chance to process and filter content that is output to the user by using the Moodle output functions that process filters. As of today, those functions are format_text and format_string (see https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Output_functions for the differences).
In your code you should use something like: echo format_text($SomeCustomField, .....rest of parameters here...);"
Would be great if the assessment names showed as the filtered output.
Thanks

I've put up a new version with a fix. It would be good if you could test that.

I updated the version of Moodle to 3.4 where I used the progress block.
Does this block replace the old one? Is the information contained in the old block preserved with the installation of this new block?
Yes, this effectively replaces the Progress Bar block, but it is not backwards compatible. In other words, you will have to set this up again.
In saying that, the purpose for breaking from the previous approach was to simplify the setup; it automatically follows a course's completion settings.

As a block, it can go where blocks go. On the home and dashboard pages, blocks can appear in the central area. Some themes do have a position that allows blocks in the central area.

I´ve only one question, all my courses are made by restrictions in each module or topic, i mean that if a student want to do activities of module 2 needs to have completed the test of module 1.
The problem here, is that the plug-in doesn´t show the restricted activities in the completion bar of the student, i need the manager can see a complete progress of the course.
Is there a way to do this?
Again, thanks a lot!!
Visibility in the bar matches visibility in the course. If you want people to see the activity, but not access it yet, then you can set the restrictions that way.

Thanks Micheal,
