Hi! Anyone know the steps we take to get our enable certificate button to appear under Settings \> Certificates? We have set the courses to the correct Course Mode (verified) in publisher, but do we need to do something else? Do we have to goto the LMS admin panel like in this video?

Hi Aaro,  
You need to set the value of CERTIFICATES\_HTML\_VIEW in the FEATURES object to true in the lms.yml and studio.yml files.

Thank you so much @Fario_Consulting,

Do you know how we can access the lms.yml? We tried to find the URL path but couldn’t work it out.

Access the LMS Django Administration website for your instance of Open edX. To do this, go to **https:///admin**. For example, this might be **[https://courses.YourOrganization.com/admin](https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcourses.yourorganization.com%2Fadmin&data=05%7C02%7Caaron.finnis%40kcl.ac.uk%7Cd57d2c257e0e4c90b3c008dce6b1b57d%7C8370cf1416f34c16b83c724071654356%7C0%7C0%7C638638898142476656%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=NHVddDlGRATRdu%2Fic9TPmKqe9pcTDhDonlry2JBF%2FAc%3D&reserved=0).**

Do we need to go through edX support?

I think we can change the studio.yml in Settings \> Advanced Settings by changing the Cert Web HTML field to ‘True’ right?

Thank you!
