Tell us what you are trying to do?
I'm working on a project where students will take courses. If they approve the course, I need to allow them to download a Certificate in PDF format.
I know that toolset can't generate the pdf but I was thinking on this:
The student logged in can view in his own profile the courses that he take and, if he approved it I can show a button to view the certificate (CPT) and then I can use something like this:
hidden link

Is there any documentation that you are following?
I was reading different posts in here, but they don't have the same need.

Is there a similar example that we can see?
the Sensei LMS has a plugin for that feature hidden link

What is the link to your site?
I'm not developing this site yet.

Hi Miguel,

Thank you for getting in touch.

The code here seems like a viable solution however i'm not 100% sure how the pdf is being handled.
hidden link

Either way this would appear to be a completely custom solution as you're generating the PDF based on the user courses and not necessarily a static post, so some amount of custom code will definitely be involved in this.

Thanks,
Shane

I think that I can create a "landing page" with the Certificate (avoiding header, footer, etc) showing the fields I need with toolset.
Then with some plugin, or whatever, the user will be able to download the certificate.
