Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Fenton Digital Badges

Columns: email (required), name, evidence, expires (YYYY-MM-DD). A header row is optional — a single line like you@example.com,Your Name works.

No. Emails are salted and hashed for the assertion identity and looked up via a separate HMAC. The unsubscribe list also stores only that HMAC, never the address.

If a badge is issued without a name, the issue email includes a one-time link to add it. The link asks the earner to confirm the name before saving, then stops working. The attestation page still verifies the badge even if no name is ever added, showing a generic completion message instead.

On Badges → Issue Badges, choose Reminder in the badge dropdown and paste the email addresses. Each address receives one reminder listing its unclaimed badges (those without a recipient name), using the reminder template from Settings. Claimed badges, and badges already reminded in the past week, are skipped.

Each issue email ends with a “Stop all future notifications” link. Using it adds that address to an unsubscribe list (only when the address still matches at least one badge). Later issue notifications for that address are ignored. Site administrators can check whether an address is unsubscribed, and remove it from the list if the recipient asks to receive notifications again, under Badges → Unsubscribes.

This release implements Open Badges 1.0 JSON endpoints and assertions.
