Moodle plugins directory: Custom certificate

Hi Mark, just a second query to my last, I've also just noticed the list within the 'Teachers' element only populates based on the teaching staff enrolled i the course vs in the various teacher permission lists as it once used to. Does the teacher have to be enrolled now or can it be based on the permission list?

@Jayden, with respect to Jul 29, 2018 1:42 AM, see https://github.com/markn86/moodle-mod_customcert/issues/171 This change requires Teachers to be enrolled.

Thanks @Tim

Because I’ll becasked, is there anyway to change this so it looks at the permission list at the category level (like it used to)? If not that’s fine, but I’m asking just in case. We don’t email teachers via the custom certificate so it’s less of an issue.

Hi Mark

I’ve just noticed that if a user un-enrols from a course they have earn't a certificate, if they go to download it from their profile, the grade on the certificate disappears.

If they re-enrol and re-download the certificate it reappears.

All other elements seem to stick either way.

Is there a way to keep the grade on the certificate when or if they unenroll?

Moodle settings are set to retain the grading.

Hi Mark
I am running Moodle 3.5.1 and when I installed your plugin ( in mod folder ) and after adding to course I go into the custom cert and select the cog wheel to edit custom cert. The problem is I do not see any of the standard elements and can not add them or others. What am I missing?

Having some problems with this module. There are two issues that are likely related. We have created a certificate template and added a Custom Cert activity module to a test course however the certificate is a blank page. We deleted the template and recreated it, no change. We then duplicated the template however there doesn't appear to be anywhere to select the template you want to use for a specific course.

Hello Mark,
Thank you for your great work in this one, Custom Certificate is for sure one of my favourite plugins. I am just wondering are there any plans to make it compatible with Moodle Mobile app?

This is a fantastic module and a great addition to our platform. Thanks!

Hello

I'm after some advice please if there is anyone who knows how to embed a custom font easily.

For ex: i have a custom font Helvetica LT of which i have converted into a .afm & .php and .z file.

I have followed the guidelines on where to install for ex: root/lib/tcpdf/fonts

Now, when i go into the settings and choose the font i have pout in there, it works in the fact that it displays form the font drop down....

You can see is on Re position Elements, However......a Big BUT

When you save changes and preview it throws out an error!

Exception - TCPDF ERROR: Could not include font definition file: helvetica neue

Does anyone know a simple enough way in how to embed a custom font as this is very frustrating..........the guidelines should be simple but whoever has tested that method has not tested it properly thus errors occurring.

It would be greatly appreciated if there are any work arounds for this....

Thank you in advance

Whats the correct dimensions to upload a background image without it being stretch beyond quality?

Is there a way to export/import a certificate?

Hi Mark:
I created a certificate, and added the date, however the month appears in english, is there a way of putting it in spanish?.
Regards,

I know that this has been asked multiple time but I cant find any answers. Please can somebody tell me how I can add an expiry date to a certificate ? Is there anyway that I can also track this expiry date so as to send reminders before it expires? and generate reports?

Hi, is there a way to digitally sign the pdf certificate according to the PAdEs specifications?

Hi,

Moodle version is: 3.5

I created the certificate template and it is working fine. But when I try "Save changes and preview" it gives HTTP Error 500. It was working fine and suddenly it stopped working. So I uninstalled the older version of plugin 3.4.5 and reinstalled the latest version 3.5.4, but still, the error persists.

Kindly help to resolve the same.
