## Description

Academies that use Tutor LMS get the same request again and again: a student who
forgot their password needs their certificate, or an employer wants to check that
someone finished a course.

Cedulink Certificates adds a simple search form. The student types their ID number(
for example, their national ID) and gets a table with every course they completed,
the completion date and a button to open the Tutor LMS certificate. No account or
password is needed.

#### Features

 * Shortcode `[hp_tutor_certificate_lookup]` that works on any page or page builder.
 * Searches the user profile field you choose (for example `cedula`, `dni` or `billing_document`).
 * Shows the student, course and completion date for every completed course.
 * “View certificate” button that opens the public Tutor LMS certificate page, with
   your own template.
 * Without a certificate add-on it still works as a proof of completion.
 * Responsive design that adapts to any theme.
 * Ready for translation. Includes Spanish.

#### Requirements

 * Tutor LMS (free).
 * The certificate button needs a Tutor LMS certificate add-on that renders certificates
   at `/tutor-certificate` (included in Tutor LMS Pro). Without it, the lookup lists
   the completed courses only.

#### Security

 * Only completed, published courses are listed.
 * Administrator, editor and other staff accounts are never listed.
 * No login session or cookie is created for the student.
 * Each visitor is limited to 15 searches every 10 minutes (filter `hpclt_rate_limit`).

#### Need more?

[HP Tutor LMS Toolkit](https://houseplugins.com/downloads/hp-tutor-lms-toolkit/)
adds a CSV export of every student’s progress, a weekly report by email, one list
with all completions and certificates, and bulk enrolment and unenrolment in several
courses at once.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate Tutor LMS.
 2. Install and activate this plugin from Plugins > Add New, or upload the ZIP file.
 3. Go to Settings > Tutor Certificate Lookup and enter the user meta key where the
    ID number is stored.
 4. Add the shortcode `[hp_tutor_certificate_lookup]` to a page.

## FAQ

### Where does the ID number come from?

From a user profile field (user meta). Many registration, checkout and profile plugins
save the ID number there. Enter that field’s key in Settings > Tutor Certificate
Lookup.

### Does the student need to log in?

No. The certificate page of Tutor LMS is public and identified by a unique code,
so the button opens it directly.

### Can someone see other people’s certificates?

Only by knowing their exact ID number. Decide whether the ID number is enough for
your institution before publishing the page.

### Is Tutor LMS included?

No. Tutor LMS is a separate plugin and must be installed and active.
