## Description

Kibworks Student Dashboard gives LearnDash students one place to see everything 
about their learning, without sending them into wp-admin.

Add the shortcode `[kibworks_student_dashboard]` to any page and students get a 
sidebar dashboard with four sections:

 * **Dashboard** — enrolled course count, steps completed, certificates earned, 
   average completion rate, and a “continue learning” list.
 * **My Courses** — every enrolled course with its progress bar and a resume button
   that links to the exact lesson or topic they left off at.
 * **Certificates** — earned certificates ready to download, and locked ones with
   a link back into the course.
 * **Profile** — first name, last name, email, phone and password, editable from
   the front end.

The sections use clean URLs off the page you place the shortcode on, for example`/
dashboard/courses/` and `/dashboard/profile/`.

#### Styling

Every colour is a CSS custom property you can set from the settings screen, along
with the two Google Fonts used, your logo, and which tabs are visible. Nothing is
hard-coded, so the dashboard can be made to match your theme.

#### Requirements

LearnDash must be installed and active. If it is not, the shortcode renders a notice
instead of the dashboard.

#### Third-party services

This plugin loads the two selected fonts from Google Fonts (https://fonts.googleapis.
com) so the dashboard renders with your chosen typography. No data other than the
standard font request is sent. Google’s terms are at https://policies.google.com/
terms and its privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy. No other external
service is contacted, and all images and scripts are bundled with the plugin.

#### Not affiliated with LearnDash

This is an independent add-on. LearnDash is a trademark of Liquid Web, LLC, and 
this plugin is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by them.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate LearnDash.
 2. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install the zip through 
    Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
 3. Activate the plugin.
 4. Create a page and add the shortcode `[kibworks_student_dashboard]`.
 5. Adjust colours, fonts, logo and tabs under LearnDash LMS > Student Dashboard.

## FAQ

### The section URLs give a 404

The section URLs are rewrite endpoints, registered when the plugin activates. If
they 404, deactivate and reactivate the plugin, or visit Settings > Permalinks and
press Save, which rebuilds the rules.

### Can I change what the resume button links to?

It already links to the first lesson or topic the student has not completed. When
everything is done it links to the course itself.

### Can students change their email address?

Yes, from the Profile tab. An address already used by another account is rejected.

### Does the admin bar have to be hidden for students?

No. Hiding it is off by default and can be switched on in the settings if you prefer
students not to see it.

## Changelog

#### 1.1.0

 * Renamed the plugin and all of its internals to the Kibworks namespace. The shortcode
   is now `[kibworks_student_dashboard]`.
 * Fixed a serious bug where passwords were passed through `sanitize_text_field()`.
   Passwords containing `<`, `>`, tabs or leading and trailing spaces were altered
   before being saved or checked, which could lock a user out of their own account.
 * Fixed profile and password forms being processed during page output, which prevented
   the login cookie from being set after a password change.
 * Fixed the sidebar overlay and other colours never rendering, because `transparent`
   and `rgba()` values were discarded by the colour sanitizer and produced empty
   CSS declarations.
 * Fixed the section endpoints not being registered on activation, which made `/
   courses/`, `/certificates/` and `/profile/` return 404 on a fresh install.
 * Replaced the remote placeholder image service with a bundled image, so the plugin
   no longer depends on a third-party host.
 * Hiding the admin bar is now an opt-in setting instead of being applied to the
   whole site automatically.
 * Font names and colour values are now sanitized before being written into inline
   CSS.
 * Escaped remaining attribute output and made the admin menu labels translatable.
 * Added a translation template in `/languages`.
 * Removed an unused duplicate stylesheet.
