I had the same problem. I even completed modules out of order as well. Your microsoft learn account needs to be linked to your freeCodeCamp account. I am fuzzy on how I did it. I believe the accounts should be linked as the very first step before being allowed to start the modules, but they’re not and confusion can easily happen.
If I remember correctly:
- Go to the trophy page in any of the modules.
- There should be instructions on how to link your account. I am terrified of unlinking my account and loosing the certification. Either a link to the instructions or the actual instructions will be there. Follow them and the accounts will b linked.
I hope this helps. I ran into this problem and solved it before I knew there was such a thing as these forums.
