===Backpack settings===
{{New features}}In Moodle 3.7 onwards, ''backpack.openbadges.org'' or ''badgr.io'' can be set as the external backpack for users to connect to.
Note that the Mozilla Open Badges service is due to be transitioned to Badgr in the near future. Open Badges users will then receive notification emails advising them to move their badges from Open Badges to Badgr.
* For new 3.7 sites, it is recommended to set badgr.io as the active external backpack.
* For upgraded 3.7 sites with users who previously connected to the Open Badges backpack, it is recommended to leave the active external backpack as backpack.openbadges.org until users receive notification emails about moving their badges to Badgr.
