Good morning all, I am trying to do a batch moodle upload of courses with 2 methods of enrolment

my csv format is

shortname fullname idnumber category visible enrolment_1 enrolment_1_role enrolment_2 enrolment_2_role
_LVMN2_LV New L2 Light Vehicle apps _LVMN2_LV 23 1 self 2 self 1

The enrolment_1_role and I using 1 and 2 which I think represent Teacher and student.

I have tried also

shortname fullname idnumber category visible enrolment_1 enrolment_1_role enrolment_2 enrolment_2_role
_LVMN2_LV New L2 Light Vehicle apps _LVMN2_LV 23 1 self Teacher self student

But without success, I must stress that the course created successful, but not with the correct self enrolment.

see file attached.

My Moodle version is 2.6.1

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks 
Conrad

Hi Conrad,

Looks like you may have used the wrong names for some of your columns. Check this page http://docs.moodle.org/27/en/Upload_users

HTH,

Hi Conrad,

Sorry about that. I was enrolling students this morning and had that page of the documentation open at the same time and I must have copied and pasted the wrong one by accident.

There is still an open bug tracker for both 2.6 and 2.7 that says "Note: Upload courses is not yet compatible with all enrolment methods (MDL-43127)." Maybe that is what is causing the problem.

Wait, maybe this helps:

  • In the System Admin settings check the default values for the self enrolment method.
  • Create a course upload file, only to UPDATE existing courses, see example below. In my case, for whatever reason, it only worked when I added the extra field enrolment_1_delete.

shortname;enrolment_1;enrolment_1_role;enrolment_1_delete
A011;self;student;0
A268;self;student;0
A268;self;student;0
