Thanks Ron, I don't think I'll get a reply on specifics in time for tomorrow but based on discussions this morning, I think what we are after is some sort of certificate page. - whether that is an option from the results page or a separate page altogether I don't know (although we do have a LOT of interest in certificate generation in general).
A rough list for discussion if you get chance:
- Details of person (name, title, etc...)
- Certificate text (perhaps a free text box / multiple boxes for things such as "has completed the module.....")
- Ability to not show the LO title as the thing that has been completed but rather a custom text
- awarded by (free text)
- signature image upload
- "logo" image upload

Hope that helps, sorry its a bit vague but if its something you're interested in developing further we can get a few perspectives.
Cheers

Hi,
We're also interested in being able to customise the downloadable PDF on the results page. Any update on this from the developers day?
thanks,
Alison

Hi Alison, I don't think any work has been done on this yet but I have now logged it on GitHub as something to look at in the future (github.com/thexerteproject/xerteonlinetoolkits/issues/1073) Unfortunately, as I don't think it's a really quick thing to add, it's unlikely to be looked at soon - unless it also gets requested by one of the organisations one of the developers work for.
Thanks
Fay

Could I add to this? It would be very helpful to be able to customise the PDF on the results page a little. I have a Xerte with a number of Model Answer questions in it. I want students to be able to download a PDF containing the questions and answers which they can then submit as evidence of completing the LO. This worked just fine previously, but I recently revisited it and found that the formatting of the PDF is cutting off some of the question text. Is there any way I can fix that? I've attached an example PDF.

Hi
just a quick reply to the general discussion about customisation and also then the last question about model answer question text cutting off.

#1 question text cutting off
Tom has already fixed this and the fix is in the latest 3.10 downloads. So it will also be in the next release too and in the case of Cardiff you could wait until the next release or submit a request for the current update. It's only a single file so won't impact anything else and I can replace the required file very quickly but not without agreement and confirmation via your change process.

#2 general customisation options
We will discuss this again on our next dev day (3rd Match) and see what additions we can make.

We can probably wait for the next release. I can work around it for now.
