[MICROBA-1806]
We are aware of product issue where it is possible for a self-paced course-run to get have a `certificate_availability_date` created in the course settings. This can have an adverse effect on the Credentials IDA where a learner's Program Record does not correctly display the course certificates they have earned because of this data. This not only causes confusion for our learners, as it appears that a course certificate a learner can access and share in the LMS is displayed as unearned in the Credential's program record, but this can also cause issues when a learner attempts to share their program record through a credit pathway and the program record would not accurately reflect their program completion.
Unfortunately, the settings that manage the certificate availability date are hidden for self-paced courses in Studio (as they should only be used in instructor-paced courses).
For this reason, we are introducing a management command that will remove a certificate available date for a specified (self-paced) course-run. This will allow us to fix issues for individual learners while we work on a longer-term fix for the larger issue.
* Add new `clean_stale_certificate_available_dates` management command
* Add new `CleanStaleCertificateAvailabilityDates` Configuration Model
* Add tests for the new management command
* (Unrelated cleanup) Fix potential issue with private.py settings in the CMS being overwritten in devstack.py for developers using devstack.
- Adds a BackfillCourseTabsConfig model to manage the arguments
to that command
- Adds batching arguments using that model
- Adds some extra logging for the failed courses
* chore: Update Python requirements via pip-tools. Needed the newest
edx-django-utils version.
* refactor: Use the newly-added ReadOnlyAdminMixin from the updated module and
remove the existing implementation.
* fix: edx-platform now has a Django proxy model - CourseOutlineRegenerate.
Without this fix, the permissions to the model's admin interface cannot be
added to a group and successfully granted to users.
Push notifications was only ever setup to connect to Parse.com a service
that has been discontinued. Since we haven't replaced the functionality
for a few years now, remove this dead code.
In cms/templates/js/course_info_update.underscore we're allowing content
to not be escaped because this is by design according to the tests.
Long term there should be a better fix for this but for now this is
intended behavior.
