The Cron job displays a Clear button on the course recompletion task. If we deploy the clear button, will this help us to resume our recompletions tasks, or will it muddy the next steps to restore the functionality?

Hi @ShirleyGregorczyk - I suspect the PR I have in #192 will fix this for you - let me know if you get a chance to test it (you should probably try on a testing environment before you run it on prod.) - If you can't test this easily it's likely to sit here in the backlog for a while until I get a chance to look further.

[ShirleyGregorczyk]

Tested the PR in #192 - and that corrected my issue. Thank you for supplying the code fix.

Thanks for that! - I've merged it in now.
