Course displays “unlimited” maximum attempts despite it having a specific number of maximum attempts defined

Issue

When creating a course, there is a feature for the administrator or training manager to set the maximum number of attempts that course participants can take the course. After setting the maximum attempt, upon incorporating into a curriculum, the course's maximum attempt displays "unlimited" in the curriculum course overview.

Reason

There is a defect in the curriculum course maximum attempt display.

Solution

While maximum attempts is being displayed as "unlimited", the set maximum attempt is being enforced and the user cannot take the course more than the set maximum attempt. Once the user reaches the number set in the maximum attempt, the user can continue to take the test in "review mode", however the answers input during the review mode will not affect their original score and status.
