This allows students to view the activity and download
their certificate. It also allows teachers to view the
list of issued certificates, with the ability to revoke
any.
This is for Moodle Mobile v3.5.0 (not to be confused with
your Moodle site version) and will not work on Mobile
versions earlier than this.
If you are running a Moodle site on version 3.4 or below
you will need to install the local_mobile plugin in order
for this to work.
If you are running a Moodle site on version 3.0 or below
then you will need to upgrade.
1) Every certificate is a template. Before a user would create a certificate then had
the option to save it as a template. This could potentially be chaotic with numerous
users creating templates, making the template system a mess. Now, rather than creating
a certificate first, then saving it as a template, you are always creating a template.
Each template is associated with a context, so depending on where you are creating it
the context is different. This means users in the CONTEXT_MODULE context are creating
a template specific to that module, where as a user creating a template in the
CONTEXT_SYSTEM context would be creating a general template that can be used by others.
This meant we can remove the 'customcert_template_*' db tables. Yay - no duplicated
tables.
2) Created new helper classes and moved functionality there.
3) Moved files to classes/ for autoloading.
4) General tidy up.
The elements for each page are listed in a table below the other page settings, meaning each page has a separate table for listing their elements. Each element is now edited in a pop-up, rather than having all the element settings displayed at once on the form causing it to look overcrowded. There is also no longer any need for the function add_element to add default values for the elements when they are added, as a a form is shown when you click to add an element where you can enter the values before it is created.
Note: I did not create a db/upgrade.php script to add the new database columns as this module should not be currently used by anyone.
Elements are sub-plugins that have the same abilities as a core plugin, such as creating tables, capabilities and performing upgrades.
Currently elements can define -
* What additional form elements are rendered when adding the element to the customcert customisation page.
* How the data from the additional form elements is validated and saved.
* How the element is rendered on the PDF.
* How the element handles removing data when it is deleted.
