Working on a fix.
We are using the relative date plugin at our college.
However after the update (the last two), a serious error started to occur.
Every time the student enters moodle, the relative date is updated based on the time he last accessed moodle.
Soon the student is never able to access the content with relative date.
We structured our entire grid with this plugin, and now we have this problem after updating the plugin.
Hello Renaat, I hope you are well.
Install the latest version of the 3.8+ plugin (2020110200) in Moodle 3.9.2+, it does not take the relative dates from when the student enrolled in the course, but since the plugin was updated or by the server date.
Similar to the bug that Joao Pedro mentioned earlier.
Can you help me with this please.
Hello João,
please use the bug tracker to report a bug. Do not forget to add your Moodle and plugin version .

Hello, first thanks for developing the plugin.
I want to report a bug: access restrictions are being updated dynamically according to local time, no matter how much in the configuration of the restriction we have selected "based on the user's enrollment in the course".
Hi again,
just installed - it seems to work. Thank you - this plugin really makes it easy to reuse "old" courses.
Hi Renaat,
just wondering: Does the current version work in 3.9?

Hi Ram,
Relative dates are experimental in Moodle 3.8+ , to enable relative dates you need to go to Administration => Development => Experimental => Experimental settings.
Perhaps this will be enough for you, but in case you want extra availability restrictions based on relative dates, then you will need to install this plugin.

Hi,
You mentioned that "Relative dates will be experimental in Moodle 3.8."
I have now Moodle 3.8.3+ (Build: 20200522) - is the Relative dates already part of the based moodle system? Or do i need your plugin?
By the way - you also mentioned that I'm i need it for other language then english I should download the plugin from somewhere else?
Regards,
Ram

Hola Samuel,
Hay 3 cosas que son importantes para un programador: la retroalimentación, la retroalimentación y la retroalimentación.
por eso hay [un informe de errores](https://github.com/ewallah/moodle-availability_relativedate/issues) donde se puede indicar:
- esta parte functiona muy bien
- esta parte no funciona (capturas de pantalla de todos los passos)
- esta pare puede functionar mejor si se cambia asi ...
No hay malas ideas con retroalimentación.

Como podría ayudarle? para que funcione correctamente, comentarle que soy profesor no desarrollador
Ya esta incluido, esta functionalidad. Pero la forma de presentar la restriction no functiona como debe ser. Si se puede ayudar en encontrar una solution,...

Hola de nuevo amigo
Quería proponerle una mejora para su plugin, que ya es fantastico jejeje, es que al igual que se pueda programar la apertura de recursos, también se pueda programar su cierre, en relación a la fecha de inscripción.
muchas gracias y espero que le vaya bien.
Hecho! Ahora sólo tenemos que esperar hasta que los cambios aparezcan.
