I would like to display course completion date on a certificate using the [date_complete] shortcode/tag, but wondering if it is possible to display another date which is two years from the completion date that is calculated dynamically?

As an example, if the course was completed by a user on Dec 1, 2023, I would like to display this date and also another date, which is two years from this (Dec 1, 2025). Just wondering if it is possible to display both on the certificate, and if so, how do I accomplish this?

The fields are not calculable so it needs to pull from a date that exists in the system. We accomplished this by awarding a certification with a 1 year expiry and using that in the certificates. You could use that but would need to make your certification expire after 2 years.
