Sounds great. I have a few questions as I am testing it out and ran into a few issues:

1. it looks like the PDF is hard coded to be in a portrait format. How do we select landscape for only the certificates?

2. I am trying to include a css background image as a water mark in the certificate but it will not show in the PDF. I am not sure if it is a path issue or if I need to move the image relative to where the PDF is generated. Any ideas?

3. For the date tags is there a tag that will give a format like Month day through month day, year? such as: June 24th through June 28th, 2016?

I can see where this would be needed. If the registrant does not show up or does not pass the course, you wouldn't want them to be able to print the certificate...

Sorry for the simple question - how do users get to their registration history?

Tuan, would you happen to know any of the below?

1. it looks like the PDF is hard coded to be in a portrait format. How do we select landscape for only the certificates?

2. I am trying to include a css background image as a water mark in the certificate but it will not show in the PDF. I am not sure if it is a path issue or if I need to move the image relative to where the PDF is generated. Any ideas?

3. For the date tags is there a tag that will give a format like Month day through month day, year? such as: June 24th through June 28th, 2016?

Testing certificate feature. When I email with the [DOWNLOAD_CERTIFICATE_LINK] tag the email arrives with exact tag, not a link. Any idea what the problem might be? Here's exactly how I entered it in my mass email test;
[FIRST_NAME] [LAST_NAME]
[ORGANIZATION]
[ADDRESS], [ADDRESS2]
[CITY], [STATE]
[EVENT_TITLE]
[EVENT_DATE]
[EVENT_END_DATE]
[SHORT_DESCRIPTION]
[DOWNLOAD_CERTIFICATE_LINK]

Here's what it returned;

I know @Tuan will be able to provide an official answer and later today...
But maybe the key is missing from the translation manager. Try adding an item to the translation manager called DOWNLOAD_CERTIFICATE, and enter something like "Download your Completion Certificate (available after the event is over)." for the translation text, and see if that solves the problem.

It would like the [DOWNLOAD_CERTIFICATE_LINK] tag to be available in the Mass Mail option, so you can send the certificate to a selected number of registrants.

As you wish, I implemented it. Working on some other small modifications and release next minor release which support this option so that you can use it. I can see the benefit of supporting the tag in the emails function (Mass Mail and Batch Mail)

Regards,

Tuan
