Progress Bar

I think I may have found a bug - If the Progress Bar exists in the class, it takes on the default dates of the activities and resources. When I modify the dates of each activity and resource (not within the Progress bar settings), the dates in the Progress Bar sticks to the original dates.
The current workaround: modify the dates first, then add the Progress Bar block.

Great to hear, Andy!
Thanks for letting us know.

FINALLY CRACKED IT!!! I had all my courses set to hidden because of a bug in the theme im using. The second I unhid one, the block appeared! So sorry for wasting your time Michael. Thanks for the awesome block.

Hi Michael, thanks for your help so far!
From plugin overview...
Progress Bar block_progress Version for Moodle 2.0 onwards 2016051400
Moodle version Moodle 3.0.3+ (Build: 20160415)
I'm running a site on HowToMoodle, I dont have access to the plugin installer, which is a massive pain.
The dashboard block says "No Progress Bar blocks are set up for your courses." Like I stated earlier, I mad a test student, enrolled on actually 11 of our courses, all of which had the progress bar on the course page, which work just fine. For some reason it seems like that data from those just isn't being fed back to the dashboard block.

... And please check what it says when editing is on ("Customise this page") in the Dashboard.

Hi, Andy.
You could check the capabilities of your test user. There is a capability to control viewing the bar in the Progress Bar block and that can have different values at different context levels.
Beyond that, it could be a bug. I tested this yesterday and it was working. Be sure you have the latest version. If you're still seeing the problem and can identify the steps that make it different in your case, please report an issue on the tracker.

I have a test student that I completed some courses on. Progress bar works on all courses. Obviously enrolled. Dashboard progress bar still doesn't appear.

As it's come up a couple of times, I've added a message for when the user is not enrolled in any courses and attempts to view the block on the Dashboard page.

Hi, Andy.
Please see my comment posted on 9 June.

I'm having huge problems getting this to display on users dashboards. It works great in courses, but I just cannot get it to show anything on dashboards. The block is site wide, configured in 6 courses that are enrolled on, but the block doesn't display.

Hi, Jonathan.
When ordered following the course order, the timing of items is supposed to be ignored. This is useful in a course without deadlines or when students are working through a continuous course at different times.
The different colours in relation to passing is a concern. It should consistently go red of the student has failed regardless of the deadline. Do you think you could come up with a list of replication steps? If so, can you create a tracker issue?
Hi, Philippe.
The block doesn't work with competencies at the moment. Also, it's focused on a course whereas competencies are site-wide.
Michael

Hi Michael,
is it possible to view the progress of competencies or plan, like à grader report, whith your plug in?

@Jonathan - I am not sure where you are going with your last remark. I would just like to say that my courses never have any due dates and that ordering according to the presentation of activities works perfectly well for me. I have not noticed any bugs.

Hi Michael,
I think I've found a bug. We've always used order by 'expected date' and things work great. However one of our course teachers wanted to use 'ordering in course' and all of a sudden the colors were all screwed up.
For 1, all non-submitted, non-passed items were blue. See this student who hasn't turned in anything but despite things being past due, everything is blue:

Second, non-submitted items show up as blue for some students and red for others. See CPSEL 1 (5th block, first row) is red for first student, but blue for second, yet both show not passed and not submitted (and after deadline).

Turning it back to order by expected date fixes it.

It is possible, but it might be slightly different. You might want to look at the Moodle 2.7 version of that page, when it referred to the Dashboard as My home, for specifics.
